Archenemies in professional wrestling

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Meaningless drivel. References in article are mostly dead links, not a good thing for an article which has only existed for barely more than a year. Even if the topic were encyclopedic, it's yet another article which treats professional wrestling as if nothing which took place prior to 1996 matters (see WP:RECENT). To give an example putting it into proper perspective - The Rock 'n' Roll Express and The Midnight Express were still having matches against each other nearly a quarter century after the heyday of their feud, but aren't listed in this article. In comparison, the Kurt Angle and Jeff Jarrett thing has been going on for what, two years, maybe? Just because someone can watch it on television now doesn't necessarily make it encyclopedic versus any other event. RadioKAOS (talk) 15:10, 27 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Professional wrestling. I believe that's the best solution in general to these sorts of halfhearted attempts at a sidebar to a major article.  Once the community of authors at any large article conclude that there is sufficient high-quality material for a separate article, they will split it out, usually after considerable discussion.  Also would support outright Delete.  The Uninvited Co., Inc. 17:59, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

 * Actually, a more appropriate redirect would be to Feud (professional wrestling), which appears to have much the same content as this article. This article is another example of what I see on occasion: create another article with duplicative, gratuitous mentions of high-profile and/or recent events, while OTOH, properly covering the breadth of the topic would make the article a little too unwieldy.RadioKAOS (talk) 02:58, 28 October 2011 (UTC)


 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

 Delete - Nobody uses the term arch enemies in reference to wrestling fueds so it's not even worth a redirect. There are also only four examples listed so the content does not need to be merged into fued either. Deletion is the best course of action here. Cyrus     Andiron   14:41, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete and Redirect to Feud (professional wrestling). Not notable as a subject distinct from professional wrestling generally. causa sui (talk) 18:36, 14 November 2011 (UTC)
