- Delete, agreed. Hardkore Championship Wrestling in non-notable, so he is non-notable, as well. Nikki311 20:53, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

- Comment, Youngest pro-wrestling promoter in history. This is referenced in a Miami Herald article composed in June of this year, in regards to Mayberry's work with the band Peelander-Z. He is the creator of one of the industry's top annual events [The Incredible 8 Tournament], and as you can see by his Wikipedia page he is a notable independent wrestling promoter employing many of the industry's top superstars. I have fixed the internal links on his page and am working on adding content as I find it. I am also working on a page for HCW and The Incredible 8 Tournament. Forgive me for not knowing how to properly post on this page. Wrestlepedia
- Reply, If he is truly notable, then finding the reliable third party sources shouldn't be difficult. Moreover, he may be the youngest pro-wrestling promoter in history (although this is original research until it is verified), but if it is for a non-notable independent promotion, then he is non-notable as well.

- Comment, The promotion is not non-notable, as it is responsible for one of the larger and more important national annual wrestling tournaments, and is one of FL's top indy promotions as well. You can see a slew of articles on mayberry at [1] that would attest to him being important enough to be included. --Wrestlepedia 23:42, 16 September 2007 (UTC)Wrestlepedia
- delete this article fails Notability due to lack of sources which is required according to WP:A and WP:V. The only website that's not owned or operated by this guy or his company is Online World of Wrestling and that in itself isn't enough to establish notabililty. Arguments of "he's notable" fall on deaf ears, find the proof with Reliable sources that prove he's notable - prove it, don't just say it. MPJ-DK 18:45, 20 September 2007 (UTC)
