Kit Wilson's "Man Up"
Hello, everyone!
May I ask your help on this article "Man Up", on the composition section? I'm trying to find on what's behind lyrical of Man Up.
Thanks! ROY is WAR Talk! 05:53, 17 February 2026 (UTC)
- Dude, we know about armdrags and suplex, no music XD. Well, about the Lyric, Wilson character is against the toxic masculinity, "Tonic for the toxic". and brings a new masculinity "They told me, "Man up", I said, "Which kind?"" --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 20:00, 17 February 2026 (UTC)
- "What?", Kidding aside, this is my first to create a wrestling song, so I don't know where I will link this. ROY is WAR Talk! 10:01, 18 February 2026 (UTC)
- Kit should have his own article by now.★Trekker (talk) 12:02, 21 February 2026 (UTC)
- @StarTrekker:, here's an idea. Go create it. Seems redundant to say he should have one. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 18:15, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

Not to be confused with tag
Was editing One Pro Wrestling to update the titles as deactivated as the promotion has been closed since 2023. Now it says Not be confused with IPW:UK. Unless I'm missing something, what's there to be confused about? Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 18:24, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- Emmmm. Maybe the IPW its too similar to 1PW?--HHH Pedrigree (talk) 18:26, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- @HHH Pedrigree, there is nothing related between the two. They are two distinct promotion with different acronyms. It's not like World Championship Wrestling and World Championship Wrestling (Australia) where the distinction would need to be made. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 19:10, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- Yeah, that's the only common thing I see. I and 1 are similar... I guess we can delete the tag. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 19:45, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

- "1" and "I" could very well be mistaken in written correspondance. I don't see any harm in the tag. Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 21:48, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- @Lee Vilenski, by logic, it also applies to IWA Mid-South, various International Wrestling Association promotions, International Wrestling Alliance, International Wrestling Syndicate, International Wrestling Federation, International Wrestling League, and others. Doing a quick search and vertical the line for the letter I is seen as sans serif type faces are most common and favoured for readability. But it's still unnecessary to use the tag to specifically differentiate between IPW:UK and One Pro Wrestling. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 01:43, 4 March 2026 (UTC)
Aliyah
I've looking at the Aliyah and return to the independents section needs some updates. I haven't been able to find any accurate information, results, etc.. What's there is a grammatical mess with a source that's doesn't even relate. Any help with be appreciated. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 18:36, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- Which updates? According to Cagematch, she wrestled two independent events, most probably no very notable. Next thing was a Reddit rumor that she was wrestling her wrestling stuff, maybe retiring, but not confirmed. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 18:39, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- @HHH Pedrigree, I guess winning a her first title post-WWE isn't notable. Seriously though, even though she hasn't wrestled much, a title win is notable. (Not saying you have mention everyone). The section still needs to be updated. A source is needed for the for winning the Destiny World Wrestling Women's Championship. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 19:14, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- Notability is given by Reliable Sources focusing on the fact. If the first title won after her WWE work is notable, it would be reliable sources about her title victory, no just WP:ROTUINE reports like Cagematch. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 19:44, 1 March 2026 (UTC)
- @HHH Pedrigree, I know how things work. I never said anything about Cagematch. I don't know if the following article was linked on Reddit but the article has what you said about her hinting at retirement. She hasn't wrestled since January 2025 and the Destiny World Wrestling Women's Championship was declared vacant in August. It's worth noting. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 22:02, 1 March 2026 (UTC)

WWE Evolution women's PPV
In some articles referring to WWE Evolution (such as Ronda Rousey), it is described as an all-women's pay-per view: "She won the Raw Women's Championship at that year's SummerSlam, and headlined Evolution, which was WWE's first all-women's pay-per-view". Is this grammatically correct? I think it could be a "women's pay-per view" or an "all-women pay-per view" but "all-women's" doesn't sound right. As this could affect a few different pages I thought I'd ask here. 1202Alarm (talk) 18:27, 16 March 2026 (UTC)
- Gramatically, "women's pay-per-view" would be a pay-per-view belonging to women (or all-women in this case). In a way that would be true, but it's clunky and with "all-women" it doesn't work right. I'd recommend "first female exclusive pay-per-view" or similar. Even with my wording, it suggests that men couldn't watch the pay-per-view, but I think that's a very small way to read that.

Danhausen (wrestler)
Do we treat these as characters, or is it actually supposed to be accurate? This guy is nowhere near 6'7" or 300 lbs, but that's what they "bill" him at. It's ridiculous... --Onorem (talk) 20:55, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
- It is meant to be as a character - the key part of it is billed height. That said, I'm not sure any other fictional character article on Wikipedia gives such prominence to in-universe stats like this, but wrestling has always been unique like that. — Czello (music) 21:25, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
- Yeah. Usually, pro wrestling it's just a few inches. But there are times where it's just absurd. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 22:05, 22 March 2026 (UTC)
