No notable pro wrestler. He had a short career before he retired. HHH Pedrigree (talk) 19:52, 5 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Outside OVW, he did nothing. A lot of wrestlers won titles in small promotions (James Moose Thomas is a OVW Triple Crown and he hasn't article) --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 11:49, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete - nothing is mentioned from 1997-2005. From 2005 to 2007 he was in WWE's developmental league / training ground Ohio Valley Wrestling, but I'm afraid that does not count for much since he never made it to the "big leagues" i.e. WWE itself. Sure he won some championships in OVW, but I don't think that makes you notable unless you are the record holder of most number of times won a championship / longest reigning champion. Others have won the Southern Tag belts 10 times, and others have won the TV championship 8 times. So winning a OVW championship by itself doesn't mean it's enough. Seems like his career was never big enough to overall make it notable. Starship.paint (talk) 12:44, 13 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Technically, he "made it". He was Masterlocked in 1:28 on the April 11, 2005 RAW. Episode did a 4.10 rating. Also had a few ROH matches. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:48, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
2005 means it was within the first year of his developmental run? Clearly a one-off jobbing appearance then, instead of a built-up / more proper debut. The ROH matches (none that he won?) were at live events, not PPV or TV? Starship.paint (talk) 07:42, 17 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Third year (calendar-wise), but yeah, it was just a squash. It's why I used "quotes". Only lost in ROH, no TV, but taped. Not a ton, but combined with the bigger OVW picture, just enough notability in my books. InedibleHulk (talk) 02:58, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

  • Keep A bit of a weak case, but just enough, I think. The OVW stuff is clearly the meat, and there's a semblance of WWE gravy. Gotta remember, he was hot there while OVW was hot in WWE, with guys like Lesnar, Orton, Cena, Batista and even Rico giving them a name. He was definitely considered a prospect, but yeah, potential isn't worth too much. The article could use expansion, though. Missing some key parts.

  • Delete OVW titles are not enough to show notability, strictly a minor league title.204.126.132.231 (talk) 20:13, 24 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
