Exact Birthdate

I've seen Severn's birth year on internet bio's ranging from 1952 to 1959. I've seen five years represented (1952, 1954, 1956, 1958, and 1959). The correct year needs to be properly located. DL 500 06:55, 6 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I just got back from a camp with Dan, he's 48 years old. I didn't have the audacity to ask his age though, as humble of guy as he is, I just felt it was disrespectful. He sort of just told us his age. I guess that means he was born in '58? -- Dan N.

Yes he was born in '58. http://www.myspace.com/danthebeastsevern. He reiterates this in several interviews.; http://www.ironlife.com/mag/issue22/dansevern.shtml. The date is harder to come by given as the 9th and the 8th. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.253.157.227 (talk) 12:22, 7 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Just a quick point. In the text of the article it says Severn held Gracie down for 17 min., but the whole bout only lasted about 15 min. I just thought I would bring this up so someone can fix it. - Duane

injury

i heard that in a match in october 1998, he faced owen hart who managed to break his neck with an inverted piledriver, anyone know if thats true?

I believe you have confused Severn with Steve Austin who's neck was legitimately injured by an Owen Hart piledriver. God it disgusts me that I know that... Austinmayor (talk) 23:29, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A lot of people know that Austinmayor. Mr. C.C. (talk) 18:32, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Championships and accomplishments

In the Championships and accomplishments section it says that Dan is a one time wec super heavyweight champion, but if i go to the list of wec champions he is no where to be found. was he really a champ or is this info wrong. if he was the wec super heavyweight champ, when was he and for how long?? 207.246.181.26 (talk) 02:51, 4 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I too challenge this notion that he was the WEC super heavyweight champion. I can't find any info on such title. Therefore i'm removing it until it can be referenced. —Preceding unsigned comment added by BullyBulldawg (talk • contribs) 15:26, 24 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]
