No 5* Matches in the US since '97?

The last 5* Match wasn't in the US probably wasn't in 1997 when Joe had two of them in Ring of Honor or did i miss something about those matches? (84.72.64.15 (talk) 02:50, 6 March 2009 (UTC)) This guy also wrestled for the AWA as a jobber and this is why he hates wrestling should it not be noted The Torch is better than the Observer. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BruceMitchellFan (talk • contribs) 10:10, 10 July 2009 (UTC) Dave didn't work as a jobber anywhere. Some promoters gave jobbers his name as an inside shot at him. It's ridiculous to say he hates wrestling. There might not be a man on the planet who has watched so much of it and devoted so much time to it.[reply]

Death?

Yesterday, there was an edit on this page which stated that Dave Meltzer died on July 20, 2010 in a car accident after returning from an MMA event. It was a pretty sick act by whoever did it, because it was done at a time which would be very early morning 20th July in the US, which means Meltzer would probably be sleeping at that time and not attending an MMA event. If he had to attend an MMA event on that night, then there was the whole day left for him to do so, and so he couldn't have died on that day after attending an MMA event unless the event occured at like 2 AM in the morning US time. Whoever did that edit, you really need to get a life. Mayankeagle (talk) 05:42, 21 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Someone did it again on the June 1, 2011 and I'm not about to click the "Facebook" link cited below. I doubt it's legit but until someone can verify or deny it more officially I won't change it. Talshiarr (talk) 12:53, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

MMA Observer

An editor is persistently changing the section name and adding text to say that Wrestling Observer is now named Mixed Martial Arts Observer, and no longer covers professional wrestling. I can find nothing to support this anywhere on the internet, but I suppose there's a very small chance it might be true? Does anyone know anything about it, or have any citations to support it? gnfnrf (talk) 17:09, 27 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Awards Page

What has happened to the Newsletter Awards article? It seems like someone finally got pissy enough to just try and erase it. Sherick (talk) 20:51, 26 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
