Being a state wrestling champion is not enough to show notability. I could find no record for him wrestling at Oklahoma. Junior championships are not competing at the highest level. If he'd been a collegiate champion there'd be a better case for notability, but I found nothing to show he ever even competed at the NCAA championships. Article seems promotional to me and a bunch of unsupported puffery thrown in about his business.Mdtemp (talk) 15:42, 21 June 2016 (UTC)

 * Delete. For the reasons well-stated by the nominator. I agree that winning a state championship (or even several) is not enough to establish notability, and news searches turn up only limited local coverage insufficient to make a case for WP:GNG notability. --Arxiloxos (talk) 16:52, 21 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete non-notable businessman who excelled in wrestling in high school competition, but that does not make one notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 03:38, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete, per others. Daniel Case (talk) 20:51, 22 June 2016 (UTC)
 * Delete Being a two time state high school wrestling champion is insufficient to show notability and the part of the article that describes his business appears to be promotional in nature. WP:GNG is not met. Papaursa (talk) 22:51, 25 June 2016 (UTC)
