- Keep Japan is a highly visible contributor to professional wrestling, and this alliance is Japan's version of the old NWA in America. For this reason it is notable, and further I would suggest this nomination has been made in bad faith. Curse of Fenric 09:04, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Keep Far more notable organisation than 90% of American independent promotions. A proper Google search [1] returns 11,500 non-Wiki hits, and this does not even take into account that it is a Japanese organisation and therefore a large number of search results will not appear due to the search being in English. 81.151.42.96 17:20, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

- Comment This does not fail WP:CORP, as alleged above. [2] and [3] clearly illustrate this point. Also professional wrestling is covered in newspaper and magazine articles in Japan on a daily basis. 81.151.42.96 17:56, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Comment The above comment shows without a doubt that those who have supported the deletion know very little about pro wrestling. Recommend an executive decision to retain the article (if I may!). Curse of Fenric 20:51, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
- Comment It would also be beneficial if people took time to familiarise themselves with the Afd procedures [4] specifically the point which states: The debate is not a vote; please make recommendations on the course of action to be taken, sustained by arguments. Notability has been proved, this article should be kept. 81.151.42.96 08:50, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
