I shall be reviewing this article against the Good Article criteria, following its nomination for Good Article status.

Disambiguations: None found

Linkrot: Ref #52 is dead.
 * Archived version used. WWE updated their website, and it seems the page was removed in the process. ♥ Nici ♥ Vampire ♥ Heart ♥ 19:05, 4 June 2010 (UTC)

Checking against GA criteria

 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * Teaching career: much of the information about his teaching career is repeated in the following section, Early career (2000–2005)
 * Removed most of it. I've left some in, in a shortened form, so it's easier to see how the two careers correspond and interlink. ♥ Nici ♥ Vampire ♥ Heart ♥ 19:05, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Now we have While working full-time as a teacher in 2004, he continued to wrestle during his vacation time and weekends, and using sick days, and on December 16, 2004, Striker began a tour of Japan with Pro Wrestling Zero1, and was later invited back for an extended tour in early 2005. which is a sentence combining two different subjects. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 02:40, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Separated into 2 sentences. ♥ Nici ♥ Vampire ♥ Heart ♥ 01:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
 * ' 'After 12 episodes, Striker announced an end to the segment citing time issues in regards to his duties as an announcer.'' Could this be reworked for clarity and grammar?
 * Reworded. ♥ Nici ♥ Vampire ♥ Heart ♥ 19:05, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * Ref #52 is dead This has been replaced with an archived version but the statement The segment ended after 12 episodes, with Striker citing a lack of time due to his new commentary position. does not appear to be supported here. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 02:40, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I've removed the sentence. I can't find anything to support it on the 'net at this moment in time. ♥ Nici ♥ Vampire ♥ Heart ♥ 01:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * Personal life: Is there no information available about place of birth, college, relationships, children, etc?
 * I've haven't been able to find any. He rarely does interviews, and if he does they tend to be very kayfabe and WWE-orientated. ♥ Nici ♥ Vampire ♥ Heart ♥ 19:05, 4 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Hmmmm, that is a pity. But I guess if there is nothing available, we will have to leave that. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 02:40, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars, etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * Just a few issues as noted above. On hold for seven days.
 * Comments above. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 02:40, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
