| 0:00.0 | Of all the things that are discussed and debated and shouted about online when it comes to pro wrestling star ratings are among the most contentious. |
| 0:08.0 | I think it's important to acknowledge first of all that these things are all opinion-based. |
| 0:12.0 | This is entirely subjective and they are down to the point of view of the person giving the rating. |
| 0:17.0 | So when the wrestling observer drops on a Friday and a match you fought sucked gets |
| 0:22.6 | five and a match you loved only gets three, it ultimately doesn't matter that much because |

| 1:18.1 | It is very surprising that some of these names do not. |
| 1:21.8 | So with all that in mind, I'm Andy from Walt Culture and here are the 13 best wrestlers with no five star matches. |
| 1:30.3 | Number 13, Roman Raines, who I think is one of the more surprising names on this list. |
