Million Dollar Team[edit]

I'm pretty sure Jim Cornette was also a manager on the Million Dollar Team as the Heavenly Bodies manager. Kingjeff 06:58, 19 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I just watched the DVD. The ring announcer claimed that the team was accompanied by DiBiase and Cornette, but Cornette didn't come down the aisle and wasn't at ringside during the match. GaryColemanFan (talk) 03:26, 24 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Survivor Series (1994)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

The article is written very well and meets much of the GA criteria, though a few issues with the prose. On hold, until pass/fail.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
  • Lead
    • The main event prose should come before the other elimination matches, as other PPV articles are written. As it introduces the main point of the match.

 Done

  • Background
    • The first and second sentence introduces the members of the teams, in the lead of the article, the team's name is used, to avoid confusion, the teams name should be mentioned, then the members that make that team up.

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:27, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • Razor Ramon had been feuding with Shawn Michaels since September 1993 when Ramon won the WWF Intercontinental Championship. - This sentence should be reworded to say that Ramon won it from Michaels. That way it will give a more elaborate of why they are feuding.

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 18:56, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • Michaels, the former champion, had been stripped of the belt but refused to acknowledge Ramon as the champion. - who stripped him? This is confusing, how did Ramon win the title if Michaels was stripped?

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 18:56, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • Diesel was serving as Michaels' bodyguard but soon became an active wrestler and carried on Michaels' feud with Ramon. - a comma should come between bodyguard and but.

 Not done Only if there is a complete clause after the comma. Since no subject is stated after the "but", a comma is not necessary. GaryColemanFan (talk) 04:29, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • Bob Backlund dated back to the July 30, 1994 episode of WWF Superstars of Wrestling. Backlund believed that he had won the match and the WWF Championship by defeating Hart. The match had not ended, however, and Hart pinned Backlund. When Hart tried to shake Backlund's hand after the match, Backlund turned on him and performed the crossface chickenwing on Hart. - Did this match occur WWF Superstars of Wrestling? If so, it should be noted.
      • Isn't it already noted ("the July 30, 1994 episode of WWF Superstars of Wrestling")? GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:27, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Luger denied having joined, despite Tatanka claiming that he had evidence that Luger had "sold out" to DiBiase. - a link or an explanation of "sold out" should be added here.

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 13:34, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Event
    • Michaels insisted on having Diesel hold Ramon while Michaels performed a superkick on their opponent. Ramon dodged the kick, and Michaels kicked Diesel in the face. Diesel became angry at Michaels, particularly because the same mistake had cost Diesel the Intercontinental Championship at SummerSlam. - this needs to be verified with a reliable source.

 Done This is covered by reference #26 (pages 42-43 of the Davies book). GaryColemanFan (talk) 04:57, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • He then got into a car and drove away- did he drive away from the arena?

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 13:34, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • When Wink attempted a monkey flip against Queasy, Lawler blocked the move and helped Queasy to pin Wink. - Who is Wink?

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:27, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • Later in the match, Lawler threw Cheezy on top of Pink, which enabled Cheezy to eliminate another of Doink's teammates. - who is Cheezy?

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:27, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • This continues on, it should be noted earlier, to what teams the midgets belong to.

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:27, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • Queasy rolled the wrestlers over so that Sleazy was on top, however, and the referee made the three count to give the match to The Royal Family.-"give" is a bad word choice, it should be stated that the referee gave the win to The Royal Family.

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 18:56, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Aftermath
    • The tournament on the Tag titles, should come before the Michaels/Diesel feud, as it occurred before they won the tag titles again in 1995.

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 05:27, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Other On-Screen talent
    • This should be converted into a table and placed in the event section, as other PPV articles are.

 Done GaryColemanFan (talk) 13:34, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    • This also needs verification.

    Good luck addressing the above concerns.SRX--LatinoHeat 00:11, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review. I will personally address the concerns tomorrow. GaryColemanFan (talk) 04:29, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Please also note that I intend to seek a second opinion after I have addressed your concerns, as I would prefer the article not be passed by a WP:PW member. This is nothing against you or your review, but I don't believe in having articles passed by people who could be accused of a conflict of interest. GaryColemanFan (talk) 13:37, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That is fine. You addressed all my concerns. A second review has been requested.--SRX--LatinoHeat 19:31, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks. As a note to potential GA reviewers, I will be away from the computer until Sunday evening. If the article is reviewed before then, I will address any concerns on Sunday or Monday. Thanks, GaryColemanFan (talk) 03:13, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
All seems good, so passing now. —giggy 08:46, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This GAN has passed, and this is now a good article! If you found this review helpful, please consider helping out a fellow editor by reviewing another good article nomination. Help and advice on how to do so is available at Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles, and you can ask for the help of a GAN mentor, if you wish.

Cheers, —giggy 08:47, 28 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Who are Pink, Wink, Sleazy, Queasy and Cheesy?[edit]

I know who the characters are, and even that the three little "kings" may have been sold into slave labour at Santa's workshop (RAW, November 28 '94, during Adam Bomb's entrance). But who played them? This information would be valuable to this article. I'll keep looking. If you're reading this, look too! InedibleHulk (talk) 22:40, 18 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good question. I hadn't ever given this much thought. Queasy was better known as longtime midget wrestler Little Louie (played by Louis Waterhouse). Pink was played by Ric Trogdon, and Wink was Buck Blevins. prowrestlinghistory.com also lists Sleazy as Ignatias Infantandis and Cheesy as Larry Gibson. GaryColemanFan (talk) 01:19, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cool. Thanks! InedibleHulk (talk) 23:20, 19 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently, "Cheesy" died this month.PeterMan844 (talk) 10:29, 10 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
