Tonina Jackson

 * ... that professional wrestler and actor Tonina Jackson was so popular that he once had a soft drink named after him? Source: "Tal fue su fama en aquella época que un refresco fue nombrado Tonina" en su honor." (translates to "Such was his fame at that time that a refreshment was named Tonina "in his honor." Azteca Deportest sports channel source
 * Reviewed: Template:Did you know nominations/Neanderkirche (has run on main page without issues)
 * Comment: Note: for those questioning if the term "Soft Drink" is an appropriate translation I point to Soft drinks which states: In Spanish, they often use the English equivalent of 'refreshment'. to support the translation of the word "refresco" and the illustration in the source clearly shows what looks like a soda bottle.

 * - Good catch on the source, thank you. I have addressed it and made sure the date is consistently November 2, 1969 - I also caught the fact that in the text I had it look like it was in 68 that he died, not 69 so I clarified. The source is a print magazine but it is uploaded to issuu.com so I could read it Box y Lucha 80 - since it's under copyright I cannot put the link in the source, but I put in a "cite news" source for it. Looking at the sentence I agree, I slit the word "that" in the hook, it does read better.  MPJ  -DK 02:12, 8 February 2017 (UTC)
