Name Change

YEAH, thats right. It's not what you think though. If you think that a version of they're name should be used, put it in the info box. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kperfekt722 (talk • contribs) 00:02, 4 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Mystery Team?

Some idiot put them as the mystery team for vengeance. There aren't any sources I'm erasing it. Seth103

Brian and Matt Logan are not the same team as the Majors. The Majors where never the PWF champs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.96.246.208 (talk) 02:48, August 29, 2007 (UTC)

Some one put that their profiles had been taken off of wwe.com but they're still there

Armageddon

Stop posting that it was the Major brothers who helped Edge win the WHC at Armageddon 2007, unless you can back it up with a reliable source. NiciVampireHeart (talk) 15:36, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

WWE.com seems like a reliable source to me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.208.58.134 (talk) 16:05, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I wasn't aware it was on WWE.com, and it wasn't when i posted my earlier comment. Thank you for pointing it out, and I'll add it into the article. Except I'll put in a reference, which everyone else who has edited the page seems unable to do so. Also please sign your comment. NiciVampireHeart (talk) 16:09, 17 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The Edge-heads

Okay their name is not officially Edge-heads, this page will remain similarly to the New Age Outlaws as they are named as V.K.M but were best known as the New Age Outlaws. So the Majors are now Curt Hawkins and Zach Ryder, but the page will still be named the Major Brothers.--TrUcO9311 ^{T / GB} 03:44, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted your move because you did it improperly. Next time use the "move" button at the top of the page. Now an admin will have to delete the old Major Brothers redirect so this one can be moved back there. -- Scorpion⁰⁴²² 03:46, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well fine, ill use the move button but go here Here--TrUcO9311 ^{T / GB} 03:51, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

When will be the right time for the page to be renamed, when they win the tag titles? Steveweiser (talk) 20:37, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Probably not for a long time, especially since they have not appeared on TV as "The Edge-heads" (Cole and Edge called them that, but that's it). We go by what they are best known as. If they are still known by this name in a year or so (which I actually doubt since these lackey gimmicks don't usually last that long), then maybe since they only made there debut earlier this year. TJ Spyke 21:40, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ive heard that WWE might name them "The Rated Rmy", pronounced like Rated Army (Adam Hardcastle (talk) 18:49, 12 January 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Ok, but that's not currently their name.--TrUcO9311 ^TaLk / _SiGn 19:07, 12 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Actually they are officially called the Edgeheads

Bad page name

Articles are supposed to be at what the team is BEST known as, which is Major Brothers for this team (why do you think that Voodoo Kin Mafia are at New Age Outlaws and Team 3D are at Dudley Boyz?) TJ Spyke 03:45, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Separate Articles

I think it's about time that separate articles for Matt Cardona and Brian Myers were created, as we know enough information about them now. All the other tag teams in the WWE main rosters have their separate articles, such as London & Kendrick have their own individual articles as well as Deuce & Domino. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Excessbaggage80 (talk • contribs) 11:54, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Um: The Highlanders (professional wrestling). Also, not in WWE but look at Harris Brothers. They don't have seperate articles because 95% of the two articles would be the same. Since the articles would be almost exact duplicates, the tag team page is enough for both. TJ Spyke 23:41, 22 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thay Should Get There Own Pages

Curt Hawkins And Zach Ryder —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.185.98.180 (talk) 03:49, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

They would be almost exact duplicates of each other, so it's not gonna happen anytime soon. TJ Spyke 03:55, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's no point. Both articles would be about 95% the same. At this point they stay combined. By the way, this was discussed in the section above, where the answer was also no. NiciVampireHeart (talk) 03:59, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There Both DIffrent Thay Need There Own Pages —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.185.98.180 (talk) 04:02, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest a basic spelling class for the mentally vulnerable. Lex ^T/_C Guest Book 19:25, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The articles would be almost exact duplicates, how hard is that to understand? Just about the only differences would be the weights of them, and the individual finishing moves. That's the same reason that the articles on Ron Harris and Don Harris were merged into their tag team article Harris Brothers and why The Highlanders don't have individual articles. If you want to register and create test articles, you can try. TJ Spyke 04:08, 29 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ridiculous

They are not the "EDGE-HEADS". This is like Cantino, Londrick and all other unofficial names. Please someone remove it from the infobox, the prose and the lead. Lex ^T/_C Guest Book 19:26, 13 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

DDT finisher

Ok this is becoming a constant problem. Now this currently to fit their gimmick will be their finisher, and I've been watching their tag matches and they use it to finish the match. Can it at least be added as a signature move, or possible their finishing move as using it continuously to me seems to at least be added.--TrU Co ⁹31¹ 00:52, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Go ahead. TJ Spyke 00:58, 12 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Should be renamed

lol, ringmaster. those were the days Hollywoodd 23:59, 3 June 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Kperfekt722 (talk • contribs)

The article should be renamed "Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder" or "Hawkins and Ryder," as they should be known more as this now. Stone Cold Steve Austin's page isn't titled The Ringmaster. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.23.218.242 (talk) 04:03, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Do people bother to look at the threads above? We go by what they are best known as, case closed.--TrU Co ⁹31¹ 04:08, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Feel pretty self-important don't you? It's hilarious how kids think they have some kind of authority via an Internet site. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.23.218.242 (talk) 22:08, 20 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's funny how little kids think that by insulting people who know how to read guideline and policies make them feel like bigshots. Truco is trying to help inexperienced editors like you, wrestlers articles are listed by what they are best known as (hence why the Voodoo Kin Mafia's article is New Age Outlaws, since that is what they are best known as). TJ Spyke 02:37, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They did so little as the Major Brothers on the main roster. Are they really known better as that? Mshake3 (talk) 05:35, 21 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with Mshake. Road Drugg & Rockabilly had a long run under the NAO moniker that included world tag-title runs and important tag-title programs. So not renaming their article to VKM is understandable. But The Major Brothers didn't do anything of note. They hung around for 6 months, with no programs or notable victories/accomplishments. However, the push they're currently receiving is bigger/more notable then anything the Majors ever have done. I think a renaming of the article should be reconsidered.--Endless Dan 13:24, 28 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just redirect Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder to The Major Brothers then.--Numyht (talk)EDIT: Already have done 11:38, 2 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Last Smackdown, they referred to themselves as the Rated R Entourage. 172.131.192.153 (talk) 21:55, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Oh god another name change dispute, that is just a nickname given by themselves, like the self proclaimed "Wrestling God"--3L Va K3 r0 21:59, 7 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

My IP may or may not be different than it was back on Monday, but it's the same person here. I wasn't suggesting to change the article name to Rated-R Entourage. I was just pointing that out so that it could be considered for a place in the article, which it apparently now has. Their official fan page carries that name as well, but that doesn't add to the point too much. And trying to invalidate the point because they referred to themselves as this is not good. Especially when using JBL's "Wrestling God" as an example. Nor would Edge's "Rated R Superstar" nickname, Roaddogg and Kip's last tag team name "Voodoo Kin Mafia", or Christian's nicknames of "Captain Charisma", "the Instant Classic", and "the Champ". Or, better yet, the Undertaker's "Lord of Darkness" moniker. Cause guess who introduced those nicknames to them on TV? Yeah, that's right. Themselves. Again, I'm not trying to change the name of the article. I'm just saying your basis for apparently trying to belittle the new nickname from being anywhere in the article, is really not that good. 172.129.141.7 (talk) 00:52, 12 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The majors are not relevant

They were just a jobber act. Yes I bothered reading the comments above. It's like listing the Edge page as Sexton Hardcastle, the Umaga page as Jamal, or the Kane page as Isaac Yankem DDS, they changed gimmick, and moved a big step up the card, they're more relevant as Hawkins&Ryder. Besides, it's their real names, makes it even more relevant. Someone change the page's name to "Curt Hawkins and Zach Ryder" already, there's really no point keeping it as irrelevant as it is. But then, I shouldn't expect logic from powertrip land Wikipedia (which questions why I even bother posting this here knowing that the usual one or two people who consider this page theirs will reply an instant no, I don't know myself). --81.64.118.63 (talk) 22:09, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

their real names are Brian Myers (Hawkins) and Matt Cardona (Ryder) actually. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 22:35, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nevermind me being stupid on that one. Worst part is that I actually knew it. Thanks for the reminder anyway. Take the eponymity argument out of my original message then --81.64.118.63 (talk) 22:44, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

They suck —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.125.232.218 (talk) 01:25, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your opinion but wikipedia is not a forum. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 13:45, 5 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Death

I know this is in all likelihood vandalism but why does it say curt hawkins died in 2008?201.238.126.9 (talk) 23:33, 3 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
