This article has been proposed for deletion as the subject fails WP:BIO. This google search: [1] for "Nick Scoville" +wrestler brings up 5 unique hits. Subject a) exists, b) is a wrestler, and c) is not notable. Deizio 12:46, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

Contested.

Searching under two of the listed ring names - "Bobby Bambino" and "Blitzkrieg Kid" - increases the Google search results to over 1,000. [2], [3]. The subject has been featured in independent DVD and video releases. [4], [5], [6]. The subject has both fan listings and independent bigraphies. [7], [8]. The subject has wrestled for the Independent Wrestling Association, certainly one of the larger independent professional wrestling promotions in America [9]. The subject is therefore notable under points four and five. McPhail 14:54, 31 March 2006 (UTC)

• Blitzkreig Kid gets 86 unique googles, Bobby Bambino 119. And those are some "independent" releases alright, DVD-R all the way. I'm not going to worry about this any more because the fact that someone cares is good enough for me, but he doesn't meet BIO. I like to watch wrestling but don't consider a minor independent wrestling assoc. as the "highest level in amateur sports" - thats nationally televised colege hoops / football. Theres also no evidence of a "large fan base", very different to having a few fans and internet homages. These are the things you would need to fight against if someone decided to take this all the way. Deizio 22:49, 31 March 2006 (UTC)
