Talk:Rosey (wrestler)

Redirect from Rosey
Can this page be set up so ""Rosey" redirects here? Koberulz 13:20, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
 * Rosey is a disambig page the does have a link to this article --- Paulley 13:47, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

OK. I saw the disambig page, but I overlooked the link to Matt. Although the disambig is kind of pointless ATM, because neither of the other two pages exist. Koberulz 13:28, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

First name clarification?
I see Matt, but is that short for Matthew or was he simply named Matt? Govvy 13:16, 12 August 2006 (UTC)


 * Does it matter? There's really no way to tell, it's irrelevant. Koberulz 14:34, 12 November 2006 (UTC)
 * His SLAM! bio says "Matthew". ♥ Nici ♥ Vampire ♥ Heart ♥ 15:06, 30 September 2008 (UTC)

Matt Anoaʻi → Rosey (wrestler) – Per WP:COMMONNAME. His stint as Rosey in WWE is the only thing most wrestling fans know him for. GeicoHen (talk) 02:16, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Support per nom. McPhail (talk) 18:56, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Oppose. "Rosey (wrestler)" cannot be the WP:COMMONNAME because nobody calls him that. Of course he uses Rosey as a stage name, but we can't use that title because there's already a dab page there, and natural disambiguation is preferred over parenthetical, so Matt Anoaʻi seems reasonable enough to me. bobrayner (talk) 21:55, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - Do people call Edge "Edge (wrestler)"? How about Kane and "Kane (wrestler)"? I'm not implying that "Rosey (wrestler)" is the common name, but "Rosey" is. --GeicoHen (talk) 01:34, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
 * That's strange, because earlier you said "Rosey (wrestler) – Per WP:COMMONNAME". If you'd rather move to "Rosey", that new target does have the advantage of being a more common name, but alas there's already a disambiguation page there. bobrayner (talk) 02:43, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Comment - I'm not saying "Rosey (wrestler)" is his common name. (wrester) is just a disambiguator in this case, not part of his name. --GeicoHen (talk) 07:34, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Support Natural disambiguation is only recommended when there's a slightly less, but still fairly common alternative. In this case, his real name isn't common enough. InedibleHulk (talk) 11:53, 8 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Support He is best known as Rosie. Also, the suggestion that people are supporting this move are suggesting that Rosie (wrestler) is him commoname is a complete misreading of the arguments. That would be like suggesting that since the video game Contra is at Contra (video game) Wikipedia is declaring that (video game) is part of the game's title.--70.49.73.6 (talk) 23:08, 13 September 2013 (UTC)

Parentage
Reference 60 does not clearly state that Matt is half Italian. Joe only states that he is himself half Italian. Given the difference in their ages (and build) it is possible (probable) that Matt is full Samoan and the two have different mothers --AndyCPrivate (talk) 13:24, 19 April 2022 (UTC)
