In the storylines, it turned out that Volkoff was really Lithuanian, not Russian, and with the fall of the Soviet Union, his pride in being Lithuanian is what lead to his split with Zukov and his face turn. Shouldn't this be at least mentioned?[[Special:Contributions/76.226.109.227|76.226.109.227]] ([[User talk:76.226.109.227|talk]]) |

More articles linked to Nikolai Volkoff and Volkoff gets more hits on google. Using his real name is unneccesary. --Darren Jowalsen 17:40, Jun 18, 2005 (UTC)
- So do 99% of the other wrestlers, but I keep getting told to use their real names so I changed it back so we had it one way across the board...except for the major superstars that is. We really need a set of guidelines on what name to use for the wrestlers. --phatcat68 19:18, 7 August 2005 (UTC)
- Wikipedia's guidelines work fine for me--Darren Jowalsen 20:31, August 7, 2005 (UTC)
- I already felt that we should use the most recognizable names for these articles but now I am convinced of that fact since you sent me the Wikipedia's guidelines. Thanks for that link! I will not change this back to Josip Peruzovic if you change it back to Nikolai Volkoff. I am just going to let the ones who want to change these handle it from now on because I am really against using names that hardly anybody knows them by anyway. Thanks for the informative link! --phatcat68 00:05, 8 August 2005 (UTC)
