Assume good faith.--Tru co 04:07, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

My bad, but the dude is an idiot. Everyone assumes that just because a song sounds like a certain artist, it can't possibly be anyone else. The song is called "On Your Knees", and it will be featured on "Voices: WWE The Music Volume 9." You'd know that, though, if you bothered to do any research instead of stating opinions as facts. § —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.23.11.245 (talk) 07:30, 13 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The article still lists the song as being by RATM, despite there being no evidence for this. The "Rage Against the Machine Myspace page" reference links to an RATM tribute band's page that happens to have the song on it, with no indication as to who it's by.86.158.203.143 (talk) 21:39, 18 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

birth date

Best friends with him growing up....his birthday is March 24th, 1982, not December 3rd. Don't know how to change it one here, just thought I'd give a heads up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.137.115.99 (talk) 20:18, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

early career

He started his wrestling career at Perry Highschool, a school renowned for their great wrestling program which holds the world record for most state championships. Another great historic wrestler graduated from PHS, Danny Hodge. He also wasn't recruited to OU as a 2 sport athlete. He was recruited to other schools for wrestling, such as OSU, but was only recruited to OU for football, then midway through his redshirt freshman year (after a little run in with Stoops after the OU-Texas game for reasons we won't disclose here) he quit football, and changed over to wrestling only. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.137.115.99 (talk) 20:22, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lisp

Shouldn't it say something about his noticeable lisp. Adam Penale (talk) 11:47, 11 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why would it say something about it? It's not like on Matt Hardy's page it says that he speaks with a slight Southern Accent. --71.93.81.135 (talk) 23:27, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

eh? a lisp is a speech impediment which is very notable and definately more notable than an accent! It was also made fun of by Christian February 10 episode of ECW on Sci Fi! Adster95 17:55, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ric Flair's lisp is also very noticeable but it isn't in his article either. It's not needed. JWC126 23:16, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Current Finisher

The current is a gut wrench powerbomb pin. It is not what it says the move is. Mr. C.C. (talk) 22:38, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It says his finisher is called the Swagger Jacker. Could I get a source? (Crippler4) 28:17, 23 April 2009 (EST)

Its obvious vandilism, when you see it you can just remove it. Ive Cena Nuff (talk) 22:45, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

World Champion?

The ECW Title isn't a World Heavyweight Championship because on the "3 for all" RAW episode, CM Punk mocked Matt and said he had never won a world heavyweight title even though he had won the ECW Title, and announcers have never said that it is a world heavyweight championship and if they did, it was a mistake, they call the WWE, World and ECW Title the "3 Major Titles." Also to become a Triple Crown Champion, you must win a World Heavyweight title, Intercontinental Title and a tag title and on the Triple Crown article, winning the ECW title doesn't contribute to the Triple Crown; therefore it isn't a World Heavyweight Title (Unlike the WWE Championship and World Heavyweight Championship)- (RKOLegacy (talk) 13:25, 30 June 2009 (UTC))[reply]

WWE has called it a world title numerous times over the years. As recently as Christian winning the title, in fact. The commentators have also called it a world title. A one-off remark by Punk doesn't mean much at all. Though it's not treated as being as important as the other two titles, it's still a world title. Gavyn Sykes (talk) 22:16, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The name of the belt is ECW (Extream Championship Wrestling) Championship no where dose it say "World". In the artical that states World Championships it's not stated as one nor as it been over the years. I tryed adding 2Time world championship to RVDs page about 2 years ago but it was not allowed, we just can't decided it work now but not then. It's not a world title till WWE, or PWI state so 82.21.192.131 (talk) 16:33, 15 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
