"Red links"
I'd previously removed some of the wikilinks to articles that don't exist. While red links may encourage articles to be written, the thing is, just because someone works for WWE in some capacity doesn't mean we want to encourage articles to be written about that person. --Jtalledo (talk) 23:11, 9 October 2005 (UTC)
Two Comments about WWE Current Superstar Page I Have
I suggest instead of putting Jim Ross under Inactive, should not he be under the administration with the title: Executive Vice President, Business Strategies with a mention to his firing in kayfabe?
Furthermore, Would it be more logic to list the Commentators, Backstage Announcers, Ring Announcers, & GM under there specific Brand or would it be to messy --BionicWilliam 18:56, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
- There aren't too many Commenators and such so leaving them with their own sections is better than splitting them up into brands. --Jtalledo (talk) 19:10, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
Then aleast we should put what brand there affilated with. My reasoning is say a noobie to wrestling came on here and wanted to know who the GM's it would look like that both Bischoff & Long were Co GMs? BionicWilliam 19:46, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
- I marked up some of the commentators and such with their respective brands. Good idea. --Jtalledo (talk) 23:07, 17 October 2005 (UTC)
Little note, edited some of the "Inactive" lists. Dupree has a hernia that's got infected, Helms recently returned on Unlimited and Striker's been doing more stuff recently. 212.56.102.74 20:30, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
Alphabetizing issues
I see that wrestlers with normal names are alphabetized by last name but people like Super Crazy are as well. For wrestlers like Super Crazy and Super Porky, wouldn't it make more sense to just use the first letter of their name since it's not like we are supposed to believe that Mr. and Mrs. Crazy had a little boy and decided to call him "Super." --Darren Jowalsen 22:14, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
- True. These kinds of entries should be alphabetized by the first letters of their stage names. --Jtalledo (talk) 22:47, 23 October 2005 (UTC)
I suggest we all the workers in order by the first letter of there stage name as on WWE’s Superstar page but not by articals like for example: Undertaker besides The Undetaker, Rock besides the Rock That would get rid of part-time wrestlers and managers/divas but it would also stop reverting wars that has been going on. BionicWilliam 19:49, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
The current alphabetical order listing is fine; no reason to change it. SWD316 23:15, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
About OVW & DSW Roster’s in general
I would suggest we should split their rosters up into development and the exclusive rosters. Seeing as it is hard to believe every one of those stars under those lists are under WWE Superstar or WWE Developmental Superstar Contracts. BionicWilliam 19:49, 6 November 2005 (UTC)
All the people listed here do have developmental contracts, there's no reason to seperate them. SWD316 23:15, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
Actually, not all the wrestlers in OVW and DSW have developmental contracts. Since this page is a WWE roster page, I feel only those in OVW and DSW with WWE contracts should be listed. James
WWE Superstars sent to OVW & DSW
Shouldn't the Raw and SmackDown Superstars that were sent to OVW and DSW be on those lists and not the "inactive roster" list? I don't see how they are "inactive". --Wwfanz 00:26, 2 December 2005 (UTC)
He is inactive!
I put Danny basham on the inactive list because on his page he said he had not wresteled since september THATS INACTIVE! But someone took him off the list. take a look at his profile for yourself! DINOMAN 18.25 3 January 2006 (GMT)
- That's not true. Recently, December 18, he competed against Ken Doane at a RAW brand house show. He is active as far as we know. The Misplaced Pages article about him is out dated. SWD316 02:11, 4 January 2006 (UTC)
parisi and dupree
Johnny parisi and rene dupree currently wrestle for OVW and DSW (according to their profiles) so take them of the inactive list and put them on OVW and DSW roster. DINOMAN 20:13, 4 January 2006 (UTC) (UCT) 20:12 JANUARY 4TH
Inactive list
I moved Striker and Kash back too their respective rosters. Striker is still appearing on TV (HEAT) and while even though Kash is injured, he hasn't yet missed ring time. I remember we had this same issue with Edge and Batista about a month ago. Anon. User, 8 January, 2006.
Title
Is there a reason "roster" isn't capitalized on the title of the page? Same thing with the previous roster. Trosk 20:43, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
Inactive
How long should someone not appear/compete until they're considered inactive? I think Vito should put on the inactive list. Trosk 17:12, 18 February 2006 (UTC)
- Good question. I'm not sure. Don't forget too that just because they aren't on TV doesn't mean they're not doing house shows. If you see that a particular wrestler hasn't been on TV/Webshows or at the house shows for at least a month I'd put them under Inactive. If you do put them under inactive, be sure to mark their last appearance for the brand. --JFred 00:41, 28 February 2006 (UTC)
Juniors
I recently found a website called LuchaWiki. On that website, it shows that Mascarita Sagrada used to be known as Mini Nova and that Tsuki was known as Max Mini. I know on this website that Mascarita Sagrada is credited with being Max Mini. Is someone able to investigate this further? If so, please let me know your findings. Thanks. --JFred 04:11, 6 March 2006 (UTC)
Just to add, I found out on another website that there were two versions of Mascarita Sagrada, with the current version being the former Max Mini. It also sounds like the original version of Mascarita Sagrada is currently portraying Tsuki and was also Mini Nova. --JFred 20:58, 7 March 2006 (UTC)
Todd Grisham
I noticed that Todd Grisham is listed as both an announcer/interviewer and a commentator. Should he really be listed under both? If so, then so should Josh Mathews on SmackDown!. --JFred 16:57, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
- I propose that the two sections be merged into Interviewers, Announcers, and Commentators. tv316 17:00, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
- Sounds good to me. --JFred 17:24, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
Inactive roster
I have moved Dalip Singh, The Miz, Trinity and Angel Williams back to their respective developmental rosters since they are still active on those rosters. We should only move them to the main roster once they debut. --JFred 00:50, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
The Gymini
I propose moving The Gymini page to The Shane Twins since that is their name and Gymini is only their WWE gimmick. --JFred 01:58, 30 March 2006 (UTC)
Reason for Torrie Wilson Name Change
Torrie is short for Victoria, Changed her name to Victoria Anne Gruner, see Torrie Wilson
Reason why it is now Fuji Cakes and not Fugee Cakes
From the person that has been providing OVW house show results on the internet, as posted on the OVW community on LiveJournal:
"Per a discussion with a wrestler I had yesterday and further evidenced by an internet search I just ran, I need to issue an apology.
For any wrestler's names I have butchered in reports I apologize. I have found that many of my reports have been used to flesh out rosters people are keeping online from just personal sites to even wikipedia. At most live events I only have what I can make out over the PA to use as a wrestler's name. Sometimes it's a simple matter of mis-interpretation on a spelling (see: Fuji-Cakes misspelled as Fugee Cakes). Other times it is a combination of my degraded hearing combined with heavily garbled announcers (see: Aaron LaMotta mis-translated to Aaron LaMonta).
Even though I only do this for fun I still like to take a little more pride in my write ups than to throw incorrect information out there. Please feel free to call me on any screw ups you may catch."

Vandalism
Someone keeps adding VanitySixx to the RAW inactive roster. As far as I know, VanitySixx doesn't exist, but they've created an article for that "character". I'm not exactly sure what to do, so would someone please help me with this. --JFred 03:28, 4 April 2006 (UTC)
- Thanks, whoever deleted the article. --JFred 20:24, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
