Does not meet notability requirements. ↪Lakes (Talk) 14:49, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Week Keep If the claims made in the article could be documented, he seems to meet the notability guidelines -- he is noticed. --Kevin Murray 22:14, 18 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep The article is written surprisingly well. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Kris Classic (talk • contribs) 01:36, 19 January 2007 (UTC).
  • Keep If this is supposedly non-notable, then how can any wrestler be notable unless independently a celebrity? -- Strangelv 15:56, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so that consensus may be reached

  • Keep has won at least two NWA Great Lakes Jr. Heavyweight titles. That's sufficient for WP:N. I've added a link to Obssesed with Wrestling profile which makes this article verifiable. Flyingtoaster1337 02:33, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment Having won the NWA Great Lakes Jr. Heavyweight championship doesn't make him notable. It's just a small regional title. The title itself is notable, but people who have won it are not, unless notable in some other way of course. Also OWW is not really a valid source since it has many factual errors, as its contributions are apparently not verified. ↪Lakes (Talk) 07:05, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Move this article to a wrestling wiki. Also: as stated above, OWW isn't a reliable source. It's a glorified fan site. If Wikipedia had all those wrestlers listed, many more AFDs would be popping up. RobJ1981 14:28, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep although they may not be very well known worldwide they are still known in that area and therefore meets my criteria for speedy keep. Tellyaddict 16:04, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment "In that area" does not qualify for Wikipedia. ↪Lakes (Talk) 16:27, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep. From the article, he seems to meet notability guidelines. However, I would really like to see some sources cited in the article to proof that he is really that notable. Terence Ong 17:14, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Delete. Minor wrestler in minor league -- what is the notability here? Sdedeo (tips) 21:37, 27 January 2007 (UTC)
  • Keep I have seen him on TNA on TV, that's notable enough for me. Govvy 10:20, 30 January 2007 (UTC)
