Rochdale Riot Wrestling

It may be worth noting his appearance in the promotion, but I don't think it deserves its own section. Does anyone agree? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.115.85.76 (talk) 00:22, 22 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

American Superslam Wrestling

A few months ago Rene Dupree appeared at an American Superslam Wrestling show, yet there is nothing to show this, can someone add something about his career at ASW?

Question

We have René's father, Emile's article listed as Emile Dupree. Should we do that with Rene or list his father under the real name instead? OsFan 19:00, 7 April 2006 (UTC) I believe we should do the same with Renee Dupree DaffyDuck619 19:42, 31 May 2006[reply]

René hasn't done anything of note under his real name and the reason he adopted the Dupree surname was because his father made it famous. If his father is listed under "Dupree" then I think René should be as well Suriel1981 11:15, 22 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

French accent

I saw ECW on Sci Fi and I saw both his little promos. He definitely has a French accent and whether or not he is trying to be a Frenchman is not clear, but he always has that accent--it's just him. His gimmick is very close to what Sylvan Grenier had when he started wrestling in WWE, however. He's like a Narcissist model.--Screwball23 ^talk 00:01, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

sexuality remarks

appears someone has been defacing the article, in the Raw section, there is derogatory text in the section about returning to his father's promotion. And the personal life bit I'm not too sure about due to that considering on OWW's profile for him (http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/profiles/r/rene-dupree.html) he's listed as dating someone named Erica (that could be old information, but all in all it really reads to me as someone trying to vandalize this article. Whelaro 09:46, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

There's no proof for the sexuality article. I've considered it vandalism and removed it, as well as a remark in the page that he "sucked dick". Also removed is section explaining in too much detail a confrontation of no notability between Dupree and Steve Austin. Suriel1981 11:12, 25 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

René Goguen → René Duprée – His time in WWE far overshadows anything else he's done to the average English-speaking wrestling fan. GeicoHen (talk) 02:08, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. Also makes sense since his father's article is at Emile Duprée. McPhail (talk) 18:52, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support He was Duprée in WWE and now, he is the Gaora TV Champion as Duprée. Two major promotions --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 20:34, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nom.LM2000 (talk) 03:57, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support - Per nom, and per success in multiple promotions under the name. STATic message me! 04:16, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support, mostly because of the famous last name, but also the success under it. InedibleHulk (talk) 11:27, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
