Dave Meltzer’s Rating’s for the week ending August 12, 2022 have been revealed in this weeks episode of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter. The Weekly newsletter has been running for over 40 years and is one of the longest running pro-wrestling publications in history.

In his weekly newsletter, he chronicles the week in wrestling and all the latest news of the week. In addition, he rates matches from the week and gives them the famous Dave Meltzer Star Rating. He rates matches he has seen this week (although not every match gets rated due to a variety of reasons) with a “star rating” that he gives to every match.

The ratings usually range from 0 stars to 5 stars, with 5 being the best possible match. However, sometimes a match is so good that he has broken the scale and awarded matches a rating over the five star mark. For instance, Kenny Omega vs Kazuchika Okada has reached over 5 stars multiple times, with their last encounter gaining an incredible 7 star rating.
