 * Delete NN indy wrestler. Also gets very few Google hits. TJ Spyke 09:52, 22 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep This wrestler was part of the orginal ECW; which hardcore fans (no pun) remember and Vince McMahon makes a mockery of on Scifi. He's related to known guys that worked in the WWE. Plus, Kris Classic has a right to his own opinion, but this is not a poorly written article. It's a simple one, not overglorifying Brawler's career. It's paying respect to one part of the orginal ECW. Plus, wikipedia has articles on other indy wrestlers (like Vladimere Koloff), you can call NN too.User:Goofy14
 * No doubt this will be deleted, because wikipedia isn't a democracy. Other indie wrestlers you can call NN, because they didn't make a big name across the country. Still, these workers pay dues, but never get recognized. Jerry Lawler mentions this in his biography (p.244). It's just a shame some wikipedians have a pompus viewpoint, but that wikipedia's right to make that rule (no democracy). In the long-term, the more these viewpoints grow, the quicker wikipedia will implode. It happened in WCW and other businesses. If wikipedia bans me, I don't care. The world and life goes on and wikipedia isn't the only website for looking and contributing information. To quote Steve Austin, "THAT'S THE BOTTOM LINE!!!" If you don't like it, can lump it.

 * Delete Non-notable. Being part of the original ECW doesn't matter (people employed by WWE don't automatically deserve articles either), and it's been established that just being related to someone notable doesn't make you notable. Also, WP has made it clear that "this article should exist because this other article does" isn't valid. Lrrr IV 03:28, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
 * Delete Doesn't appear to be notable. It's not a matter of indie wrestlers "never getting recognised". Paying respect to ECW is not what Wikipedia is for. Being related to a WWE employee is not a good reason for existence. If the article was expanded hugely and referenced then my viewpoint might be swayed. Suriel1981 12:15, 24 February 2007 (UTC)
