DeleteDefunct backyard wrestling fed. 1k ghits, which seem to be for other feds. Had public access show for about 10 months. No evidence of independent coverage, only ref is an angelfire page. Fails WP:N. Horrorshowj 03:29, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete. This was something on public access television, and has the distinctive flavor of something made up in school one day. No other coverage, and the emcee promotes his myspace page. Not notable in the slightest. --Dennis The Tiger (Rawr and stuff) 03:37, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

• Delete, backyard feds are not notable. Nikki311 03:42, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Doesn't meet WP:Notable; public access television doesn't lend notability. Accounting4Taste 04:35, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete NN wrestling organization, the general consensus is that backyard wrestling feds are not notable (the only one i've seen that hasn't been deleted is the one that was created by the Hardy Boyz when they were younger). TJ Spyke 04:46, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete. Not notable enough. • Lawrence Cohen 06:08, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete I think the arguments presented pretty well sum up how the community, including myself feels about it. ADMIN, please close discussion. Carter | Talk to me 08:22, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete backyard wrestling might be fun, but it is (by definition) not something that gets covered in an encyclopedia. Hell, even actual wrestling magazines don't cover it. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 12:56, 13 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete not notable. Darrenhusted 12:14, 15 October 2007 (UTC)
• Delete all backyard wrestling feds murderously fail WP:N. The Hybrid T/C 13:52, 16 October 2007 (UTC)
