No significant independent coverage of this topic in the references or that can be found elsewhere. Appears to be an ARS enthusiast creation without the availability of reliable sources. Steve Quinn (talk) 06:45, 23 June 2019 (UTC)

 * It meets the guidelines for notability for tournaments in the wrestling section - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Professional_wrestling/Notability#Professional_wrestlers.

Cagematch is also listed as a reliable source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Professional_wrestling/Sources

I'm also 100% certain that the Wrestling Observer, which is also a reliable source, covered it, though I do not have accessed to it since it is a paid publication. I would strongly caution hunting down Japanese wrestling articles due to deletion since there was ZERO coverage of Japanese women's wrestling in the English media due to the mainstream media rarely covering wrestling in America, yet alone in Japan and due to companies like ARSION being unable to be viewed legally in the US at the time.

 * Cagematch is listed as reliable source for results only. It doesn't establishes notability since covers every single pro wrestling event in the planet. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 12:37, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Question- how does this meet WP:PWEVENT? Nothing I've seen so far suggests it does (unless it was run by a promotion on the list. If this is a simple WP:GNG argument, it fails from all sources I've seen. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 18:38, 24 June 2019 (UTC)
 * I have added references to coverage of the 1998 & 1999 tournaments in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.Froo (talk) 13:49, 26 June 2019 (UTC)


 * Delete, but no rush Not much here except names, dates and results, making this redundant to the Internet's existing stat sites. Even a bit inferior in ways. But these are big names, making deeper coverage in joshi magazines fairly plausible. I couldn't read them if I found them, but somebody else might, in good time. A month seems long enough.

 * soft delete as above, and other conversations at WP:PW, there is possibility of Japanese sources existing, but that doesn't mean that the article should go as badly referenced on that speculation. Delete with no prejudice to recreate if appropriate sources to meet WP:GNG are found. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 07:18, 25 June 2019 (UTC)
 * Delete None of the articles are anything but the reporting of results. There's no evidence that WP:GNG is met. Papaursa (talk) 00:01, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
