Talk:Steve Williams (wrestler)

Steve Williams (wrestler)
Should this be moved to "'Dr. Death' Steve Williams"? Stone Cold Steve Austin's old name was Steve Williams. RandySavageFTW (talk) 01:40, 24 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Oppose Better known as Stone Cold.-- Will C  02:28, 26 July 2008 (UTC)
 * Um, I don't think he placed the Stone Cold Steve Austin article up here for an article name change. I believe he placed Steve Williams (wrestler) up for an article change to Dr. Death Steve Williams and his rationale is we shouldnt have a Steve Williams (wrestler) because Stone Cold Steve Austin is also a Steve Williams. — M o e   ε  03:11, 26 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Well he said Stone Cold's old ring name so I guess I thought he meant to move Stone there. I'm not all here right now so I'm not sure what I'm reading in the first place.-- Will  C  03:15, 26 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Well, I sorta misinterpreted it as well. But I understand it. It's asking if Steve Williams (wrestler) should be moved to "Dr. Death" Steve Williams. Stone Cold has nothing to do with this. BTW, I support the move. SAVIOR_  SELF  .777  07:48, 26 July 2008 (UTC)


 * The last post is correct if you're still confused. RandySavageFTW (talk) 11:57, 26 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Support to avoid the confusion Wrestlinglover has wandered in to. Steve Anderson changed his name to Steve Williams but wrestled as Steve Austin to avoid being confused with "Dr Death" Steve Williams. So I think that this move may help clear any confusion.

 * Support, "Steve Williams (wrestler)" could mean either of them, so this will help with confusion. Nikki  311  21:56, 19 August 2008 (UTC)

One thing this article hasn't made mention of is when Dr. Death dressed up as a Japanese masked assassin on the February 22nd 1999 edtion of Raw is War and attacked Bart Gunn. FlapjackStantz (talk) 12:58, 1 May 2013 (UTC)

"Dr. Death" Steve Williams → Steve Williams (wrestler) – I think it's time to move this page back to Steve Williams (wrestler). It was moved back in 2008 to avoid confusion with Stone Cold Steve Austin, whose legal name up until 2007 was Steven Williams. But as Austin is frequently referred by his ring name-turned-surname or just Stone Cold, there shouldn't be too much confusion now. APM (talk) 05:50, 5 January 2018 (UTC)
 * Support - A hatnote can be added to the top of the article linking to Stone Cold Steve Austin just to tick all the boxes. But it's extremely unlikely that anyone outside of Steve Austin's family and long-time acquaintances know him as "Steve Williams" so there is absolutely zero chance of someone searching for Steve Williams and expecting to find Stone Cold. This page should never have been moved in the first place. ŞůṜīΣĻ ¹98¹ Speak 20:44, 10 January 2018 (UTC)
