[edit] South Philly Screwjob

South Philly Screwjob (edit|talk|history|links|watch|logs)

Contested prod. Unsourced article on what seems to be just some minor plotline from professional wrestling. 143 Google hits, only 27 unique, almost all for wrestling forums. Metros 19:59, 8 December 2006 (UTC)

  • Keep contingent upon sourcing. It was a major plot turn on the story lines of two branches of the WWE monopoly. The marijuana/Vicodin arrest should be easily sourced; the rest can be verified through wwe.com and ecw.com. B.Wind 03:35, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Keep this is a major event that occured in WWE history and should be remembered. 86.20.53.195 17:00, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete or Merge with Montreal Screwjob. Unlike the Montreal Screwjob which was a legitimate event, this was essentially the umpteenth pre-determined clone of Montreal (see Use in wrestling storylines) and pretty unnotable in the long run. --Oakster (Talk) 21:33, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete This was already deleted back in August and I see no reason for it to have been re-created. Nothing special about this FICTIONAL screwjob (wheras the Montreal Screwjob was very real). TJ Spyke 22:42, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete per Metros232. 84.13.55.252 01:26, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete or Merge Not Notable on its own but in context it may have a place. We don't need to cover every storyline in wrestling history regardless of how important it was. Perhaps mention it on Rob Van Dam's page or in relation to the Montreal Screw job. Otherwise delete it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by NegroSuave (talk • contribs) 14:47, 12 December 2006 (UTC).
    • It already is mentione on RVD's page. TJ Spyke 00:07, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete This was not a real screwjob, it was only storyline. However, some mention could be made in the Montreal Screwjob article. It could be listed in a spinoff section. As a standalone it really is nothing. Since it was kayfabe, there is no story and effects. And contrary to what a user said, this was not a major event and will probably soon be forgotten. --Nymetsfan 23:35, 13 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Delete Please, it's just some made up buzzword that 50 wrestling fans use. Booshakla 10:37, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
  • Weak Keep It was the turning point for the new ECW. Ken S. 20:51, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
