Torture Rack?

There's no sort of link or clarification as to what this maneuver is; it's not clear. 3pointswish (talk) 17:38, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That would likely be the backbreaker move he has used on Moore and Super Crazy. Don't know what the specific name for the move is though. Tombell12 (talk) 09:26, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Last Name

This isn't a big deal but I noticed that on his WWE Bio He's just listed as Ezekiel and I haven't heard the last name "Jackson" used on TV as of yet. If anyone has and can source it that would be great because otherwise I'd just remove it. ROH Historian (talk) 22:49, 8 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Brian Kendrick introduced him as Ezekiel Jackson before his match on the Aug. 8, 2008 episode of Smackdown 70.161.126.199 (talk) 01:45, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I just saw that match and that was the first time I had heard it. Thank you. ROH Historian (talk) 01:53, 9 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Personal life

How about you put in a personal life section: tatoos, partner, kids, resides...Kalajan (talk) 20:02, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

There is very little information from sources to be found regarding him, anything to do with him. Hence why the article is so short. If you have some info add it in. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 23:08, 2 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Entrance Music

As of recently, he is using a remixed version of the 1998 WWE Brawl for All theme. As far as sources go, It's not on his superstar profile yet but it was played as he came out on ECW on Syfy on 9 July 2009. Can I add this info to his page with what we already have?Scca8704 (talk) 22:27, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No, it needs a reliable source. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 00:56, 12 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, WWE has now posted his entrance video under his superstar profile. Is this good enough to warrant it to be added?Scca8704 (talk) 05:12, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't name it, or say that it is a remix of the 1998 WWE Brawl for All theme, so no. Saying that it is a remix of the theme is original research on your part unless you provide a source saying so. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 10:23, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I think I may have found the easter egg I needed on this one. Here's the source link to the needed article. [1]Wrestling Observer Online ECW TV Report for 21 July 09Scca8704 (talk) 02:15, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unless anyone sees any need to change the addition that I recently made to this page, please feel free to do so. I'm not the best, but I always welcome input from others.Scca8704 (talk) 04:04, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good job on finding a source! ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 15:01, 8 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Finishing move

I doubt Zeke ever used a chokeslam as his finisher. The standing Uranage is easy to mistake for a chokeslam, and of the two references, one is from a house show, and the other, although I can't find video, was reported here (October 17th) as a Uranage. 68.61.187.162 (talk) 03:18, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Of the two references for the chokeslam, one is from the Wrestling Observer and the other is from the PW Torch, both of which are reliable sources. thewrestlingfan.com is not a reliable source. See WP:PW/SG#In wrestling for a list of reliable wrestling related sources. ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 12:14, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Billed from

I don't watch ECW so I don't know but on the most recent results they note Jackson as being Guyanese; is he now being billed from Guyana or just that it's in his ancestry? Again I don't watch the show but it seems to be they're doing this to build his alliance with Regal and Kozlov as a foreign axis of evil ('cause us English are so powerful and evil these days) so I wondered if it was worth merit to be included. Tony2Times (talk) 13:25, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hmmm, well, in his WWE bio they say "Born in Guyana, Jackson moved to Harlem". I'm not sure if it's notable though, and knowing WWE there's a pretty good probability it's not true. (Kofi Kingston and Jamaica for example). ♥Nici♥Vampire♥Heart♥ 12:18, 29 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I actually just came here to discus this. figured I'd contribute my own interneting. He's legit from Guyana... he says it here in this interview... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=trjuIEKOU4s So Im gonna go ahead and change that in the quick info bar under his picture, but i dont know how to do references and all that, if someone wants to pick up that slack for me, haha. 74.47.127.134 (talk) 00:38, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
