Both of these users have produced very poorly written articles about non-existant wrestling promotions. Sexyking54321 was blocked as a vandalism only account soon after I nominated all of the hoaxes for deletion at Articles for deletion/World Heavyweight Championship (Total Extrme Nonstop Wrestling ). PlayStation Wrestling was created yesterday, and I'd be surprised based on the similar content if this isn't the same user. The word "Sock" in the username also suggests that the user might be a sock-puppet. Anthem 19:20, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Additional information: Sock48 started editing soon after Sexyking54321 was blocked indefinitely. I can't access Sexking54321's hoaxes, but the key similarities are the citations to unrelated wrestling articles and the poor english and formatting. Both make references to established wrestling figures in their hoaxes to make them seem more credible. --Anthem 04:24, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

 * Sorry, I'm not seeing the connection in the articles. Can you give some more detailed info? —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 23:34, 13 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Alright, thanks. Per the evidence I _think_ they may be the same, so I'm endorsing. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 07:11, 14 June 2011 (UTC)


 * - although obviously related to someone due to the name, I can't directly tie this to Sexyking and Jordancj. The IP used by Sock48 is in a different country, however a port scan seems to indicate that this is a proxy. I have hardblocked it as such. The useragent is also different, showing a different operating system and processor than what is in use by the other two accounts. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 23:27, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
 * I've blocked Jordancj68 per the findings; I'll leave Sock48 alone for now, but relist if they edit again. —  Hello Annyong  (say whaaat?!) 10:04, 17 June 2011 (UTC)
