[edit] Confusion

Who put that Shane was born in December 1969? I fixed it up, but it still bugs me. He was born January 15 1970 right?

Shane was born January 15 1970, its a fact! 22:49, 28 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] 2nd Child

Is there s source that says that Shane's second son's name is Edgar jesse? Just wondering. User:MgTurtle

This page might have to become semi-protected.

Why? User:MgTurtle

People keep putting that he's dead

Well they're just stupid and they don't understand what WP is for. But if you believe that this page needs to be protected for that reason, go ahead and protect it. User:MgTurtle

It started as this internet fad, supposedly he died and HHH accidently killed him.

So you have to add to it. it's not a fad, it's a rumor. rumors only cause more trouble in the end. User:MgTurtle

Isn't his second sons name Kenyon Jesse McMahon?

Can anybody actually prove that the second son exists? I've never seen one artile other that wrestling rumour sites that relate to him, no mention in wwe archives or anywhere else.

On the RAW episode, when Vince had that match with Triple H at MSG, he dedicated the match to a lot of people, he then dedicated to his Grandsons, Declan and Keynon. So, Keynon does exist.  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 22:29, 01 June 2007 (UTC)

where is the proof of his date of birth? I have not seen one trustworthy site to date. Including NNDB which in my opinion is no different to the likes of IMDB you can't prove accuracy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.64.117.98 (talk) 01:54, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Titles

Is there any reason why the WWE Hardcore Championship is listed before the WWE European Championship? He won the European title over a year before, shouldn't it be listed first? AWBricker

Was there a reason that someone deleted the picture of Shane holding the European title? Zerorules677 6:31, 09 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism.

If there's any more of this stupid vandalism with pictures of Melina, maybe we should think about protecting the page. VelvetKevorkian 06:07, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] SS 2000

Shane met Blackman in a rematch at SummerSlam 2000, losing the title after being hit with an elbow drop from 30 feet in the air. Shane then disappeared from television, making occasional cameo appearances."

I thought it was the other way around with Shane hitting the huge elbow drop and test picking Shane up and putting him on a mic pole to keep him up while the referee counted Blackman out.(it was a last man standing match.) This is from the article: "

You're thinking of Backlash 2001 where he fought the Big Show. VelvetKevorkian 21:09, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] title history?

ok i dont know who put this under shane's title history:

World Wrestling Federation WWF European Championship (1 time) WWF Hardcore Championship (26 time) WWF World Championship (1 time) WWE Cruiserweight Championship (3 time)

World Championship Wrestling WCW Light Heavyweight (5 time) WCW World Tag Team Championship (6 time)

obviously, he is just a one time european champion and hardcore champion. everything else should BE GONEEEEE.

also, on the length of world title reigns, he is listed as having held the WCW World Heavyweight Championship for something like 290 days. uh, yeah.

6ft 2in is ~188cm. The article converts it errorneously to 193cm. Which of the two is correct: 6ft 2in and thus ~188cm, or 6ft 4in and thus ~193cm?

[edit] picture

how come the picture doesn't load? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Zerorules677 (talk • contribs) 18:23, 5 December 2006 (UTC).

It didn't load for me either (Thebandweekly 23:05, 9 January 2007 (UTC))

It got my picture. (Batmanrules677 19:25, 6 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wrestlemania 23

I added to 2007 what happened at Wrestlemania 23, I tried to make it sound as Encyclopedia like as I could. Feel free to edit and make it sound better. Julie 04:50, 2 April 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Citing sources / references

Can I take out the banner of the page? Batmanrules677 17:15, 19 April 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Shane / The Boogeyman

Was it Shane who came up with the idea of The Boogeyman? ThinkBlue 18:54, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Vince's 'death'

Decided to delete all references to it for now. Alexrushfear 20:25, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

He's NOT dead!!!!!!  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:50, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Precisely ;-) Alexrushfear 23:18, 12 June 2007 (UTC)
Just wanted to make sure!!!!  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:23, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Surname

I saw on NBC that Vince and Linda gave him Linda's maiden name as his surname, to honor her family. So, his name is actually Shane Roger Edwards... I guess he goes by McMahon to be like the rest of the family. I saw this on TV, but I can't find an internet source to confirm this. I also don't know why his name is listed as "Shane Brandon" when his name was given as "Shane Roger" —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.51.119.40 (talk • contribs)

If you can find a source to verify this, we can certainly add it. Bmg916Speak 15:38, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
What the hell are you talking about? His middle name is Brandon. How do I know that? Reference point: 2006, Shawn Michaels made a note, when he was interviewed by Maria at Backlash 2006; I don't remember exactly what he said, but he said that he was gonna bring Vincent Kennedy McMahon and his son Shane Brandon McMahon to their knees!!!! You can verify it by watching the Backlash DVD.  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:55, 14 June 2007 (UTC)
Watch the Over the edge 1998 PPV... Viscera called him "Shane Edwards"... then he said "I'm going to get you Roger!" At least I think it was Over the Edge - The Dude —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.51.119.40 (talk • contribs)
You mean, Shane Stevens!!!! That was his referee name!!! I got proof his middle name is Brandon!!!! If you see his Corporate Bio!!!! It says: Shane B. McMahon - the B for Brandon!!!! Where's your proof?  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 19:01, 15 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blacklist

For some reason the following reference, <ref name="Details Magazine">{{cite web |url=http://men.style.com/details/features/full?id=content_4990&pageNum=17 |title=The Power 50: DETAILS Article on men.style.com |accessdate=2007-07-17 |publisher=[[Details (magazine)|Detail Magazine]]|date=October 2006}}</ref> (used to cite his rank on Detail Magazine's "most powerful men" list), is blacklisted. I think because it contains the word "men" in the link but I'm not entirely sure. - Deep Shadow 14:33, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Who trained Shane McMahon?

I added a "Citation Needed" tag for the claim that Lou Thesz trained Shane McMahon. I haven't been able to find any evidence for this. I've found references to him being trained by Vince McMahon, Pat Patterson, Jerry Brisco and Al Snow, but no reference to Lou Thesz. Is anyone able to clear this up? GaryColemanFan 03:13, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

Upon further investigation, Tom Prichard was listed as Shane McMahon's trainer until an anonymous user vandalised the article at 19:24 on June 12, 2007. All of the revisions made by this user except for the trainer were changed back. So, did Tom Prichard train him? The list of suspects is growing and growing... GaryColemanFan 03:22, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Survivor Series 2007

Was Shane at ringside for the Hornswaggle-Khali match? (Sawyer (talk) 00:26, 22 November 2007 (UTC))

Yup. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:35, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 2008

Just added this to the main page and wrote what he did in the NO Way Out paperview. So if you want you can make it sound more encyclopedia like. I tried. Julie 12:19, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

He also appeared on monday 10th March 2008 (the weigh in between Big show and Mayweather) Adam 12:40 15 March 2008.Adster95 (talk) 12:40, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

I added this but it is not very encyclopedia like so if you want to make it like that. Adster95 (talk) 19:46, 27 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Divorce?

Had heard Shane had divorced Marissa and married someone called Shannon? Any truth to this? CrazyFoolMrT (talk) 09:33, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
