Del, there is just not enough sourcing that I can find to build an article. Hiding T 16:35, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - started in June 2016 is all I needed to see, not notable after just two issues. MPJ-DK 21:14, 6 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy delete – the only possible hope of
WP:V provided was in the external links section, which was a dead link. This is just more of the sort of garbage which makes Wikipedia appear to be a current events site, a social media site or whatever else have you, but certainly nothing even remotely resembling an encyclopedic information resource. Contrast this with the numerous notable wrestling magazines which lack articles, mainly because they suffered the misfortune of being notable outside of the limited notice of Wikipedian editors and their favored sources. That isn't being snarky; WP:PW has participants who believe that notability hinges solely on the existence or non-existence of an article. Trying to use that to claim that The Ring Wrestling or any of Norm Kietzer's magazines (or for that matter, Japanese wrestling magazines) aren't notable doesn't pass any sort of smell test. Neither does attempting to claim that this is somehow "notable". RadioKAOS / Talk to me, Billy / Transmissions 19:13, 8 September 2016 (UTC)[reply
