The result was delete. The "delete" opinions are more convincing. The two articles about him are titled "Did you see this Hamilton native on WrestleMania?" and "Hamilton native guest host on GAC show", which makes it clear that this is coverage by a local journal based solely on local interest. Such coverage is regularly attributed little importance in establishing notability in AfD discussions. Sandstein 09:06, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Sources include primary source, an internet database with no criteria for inclusion,
WP:ROUTINE results, and two stories from the same local news source. Not exactly significant coverage IMO. Nikki♥311 02:00, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply

Comment this is a tricky one, since none of the sources currently in the article demonstrate notability in my opinion: two sources from his hometown in a local-boy-makes-good article, a database, and two articles from his employer's website and the remaining article refers to him only once in passing. However, a before search brings up a lot of specialty wrestling hits. There's nothing in the before search I understand well enough to argue him over the
WP:GNG line, so I lean delete based on what's there now, but someone who cared enough might be able find some independent sources that could get him over the line. SportingFlyer talk 07:18, 6 May 2018 (UTC)[reply
