This article is on a fictional video game character that later appeared in real-life wrestling. However there's nothing to support notability for the character, and not much material when you boil the article down either. Kung Fu Man (talk) 17:06, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

  • Keep. This article is on a fictional video game character that also later appeared in real-life wrestling as verified by sources present in the article, something that rarely happens with video game characters, i.e. it is a notable character with no reason to be deleted.

:That fact alone doesn't make a character notable. There's hardly significant coverage in reliable, third party sources. As wrestling is in effect acting (no offense meant to any fans of it), it could be likened to any fictional character that appears in a film.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 18:25, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

::That it appears in both a game and on TV and is verified in reliable, third party sources does make it notable. Best, --A NobodyMy talk 19:44, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

  • Keep: There was a discussion about creating this article at WT:PW. TNA won an award for taking a video game character and turning him into a real-life wrestler. There are reliable soures regarding this character at PWTorch, WrestleView, Canadian Online Explorer, Wrestling Observer, etc. Clearly notable enough for inclusion.--WillC 22:01, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
  • Withdrawn Per my discussion with the above poster it seems notability can be shown, and he's shown genuine willingness to improve the article to FA class. That's sufficient for me.
  • I will add on a completely for the record note I would appreciate it if User:A Nobody could stop badgering me and other members at AfD's.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 22:38, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
  • Huh?! You replied to my general comment above first... Then I suppose by your logic, you should not "badger" me or anyone else who posts in disagreement with your nominatins? Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 22:39, 9 September 2009 (UTC)
