Angle vs Taker at No Way Out 06 was 5 stars I think.
That match was just clicking on all cylinders, and the crowd was going APESHIT. Beautiful false finishes and just solid execution throughout. I want to watch that right now.

One match that I think was bumped up in the star ratings based on the crowd reaction alone was John Cena versus Rob Van Dam at One Night Stand. Holy shit, that was amazing. The crowd absolutely elevated that match from watchable to fantastic.
