List of professional wrestling matches rated 5 or more stars by Dave Meltzer

Professional wrestling journalist and historian Dave Meltzer has assigned ratings to professional wrestling matches since the creation of his publication, the Wrestling Observer Newsletter in 1982, and named his first 5 star match in 1983. Receiving a 5 or higher star rating is considered by many to be a great achievement,[1] though the ratings themselves are ultimately the opinions of Dave Meltzer.[2]

The highest rating ever given to a match by Meltzer was 7 stars, which he awarded to Kenny Omega vs. Kazuchika Okada at Dominion 6.9 in Osaka-jo Hall in June 2018. There have been 131 matches awarded 5 or more stars; Mitsuharu Misawa has the most individual matches with 25.
