 * Keep. He wrestled for WCW for two years during the Monday Night Wars, which I think warrants an article. McPhail (talk) 20:04, 6 January 2014 (UTC)


 * If his WCW career did indeed consist of just two matches, I'd support deletion. McPhail (talk) 18:25, 14 January 2014 (UTC)


 * His entire career is 5 lines. I don't know, but looks lie he wasn't very important. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 21:54, 6 January 2014 (UTC)


 * The article needs work, certainly, but I think anyone who had a run on TV during the boom period has some notability. McPhail (talk) 18:50, 7 January 2014 (UTC)


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

 * Keep Minor player, but big TV. A fair bit of people might wonder about him. InedibleHulk (talk) 18:06, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete Not near as much TV as I'd guessed. Shouldn't guess. Rick Renslow has at least an hour more. InedibleHulk (talk) 18:12, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, he's not a total jobber. He did make it into a tag team title tournament. --GeicoHen (talk) 20:14, 13 January 2014 (UTC)
 * Renslow and Dave Wagner challenged The British Bulldogs for the WWF Tag Team Championship in their first TV match. They also lost, as total jobbers do. InedibleHulk (talk) 18:50, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

WAIT UP. What the article claims might not be correct. Where is the source that he debuted in WCW in 1999? From profightdb and cagematch, he's only wrestled in WCW literally twice, once in January 2001 and once in March 2001. Look at the history source for the WCW tag tournament, it's not that the tag team "advanced to the quarterfinals", they started in the quarter-finals! Only two matches and two defeats, doesn't that sound like a jobber to you? "Scotty O" and his partner "Jason B" sound jobber-ish too. Unless someone brings up more information and reliable sources, I'm going with Delete. Starship.paint (talk) 08:49, 14 January 2014 (UTC)
