These two articles are completely contextless lists without any introduction or reason why a 'world heavyweight championship' for wrestling in the WWII era was limited to a random city and state and why winning them was a major part of someone's career (Maryland seems completely random); I understand wrestling territories at their barest concept, but otherwise this is just a list that throws us into a list of people and explanation for their win that has zero context and paper-thin sourcing; on top of that flagged this as a WP:COPYVIO from what seems to be an equally vague fanpage which seems to read as some kind of fanfiction rather than a historical record.

 * Delete for failing notability criteria. That is my honest, non-cheating, non-theatrical, non-promotional opinion. -The Gnome (talk) 09:46, 24 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete oif the article could offer some context, it might be different, but it's simply a list of champions for an old belt.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 12:57, 25 May 2018 (UTC)
