Subject fails WP:GNG and WP:NATHLETE. The citations are almost all wrestling outlets of questionable reliability. There's only one sentence about the subject's private life which means the subject fails WP:ANYBIO, too. Chris Troutman (talk) 19:19, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Cagematch is the most cited source and is proven reliable at WP:PW/RS. It's second most cited source is Wrestlingdata, which is fine for match and show results only, which is all it's used for. — Preceding unsigned comment added by TDOldSpice (talk • contribs) 19:57, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Comment Cagematch is only for results. Wrestlingdata is not considered a reliable source per WP:PW/RS. Here it is used as a source for birthname, birthplace, weight, height and trainers. Internet Wrestling Database and 411Mania are not reliable either and WrestleZone is just flat out unreliable. リボン・サルミネン (Ribbon Salminen)(ZOOM) 21:06, 31 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Keep the article has reliable sources thats were proven — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.236.58.153 (talk) 12:26, 6 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per Ribbon Salminen. WrestlingData accounts for a large portion of the refs, unreliable per WP:PW/RS. Independent news coverage is needed to prove notability. JTP ^{(talk • contribs)} 16:01, 7 February 2017 (UTC)[reply]
