Updated the Santino 2007/2008 Bit

[edit]

Whoever Edited this section before me had no form of grammar and had terrible spelling also was totally incorrect at what happened in this time frame, Anyways I have updated it with what actually happened :).

Maria breaking Phoenix's Undefeated Streak?

[edit]

On her page, it says Maria defeated Beth, breaking her undefeated streak. I believe that match took place on February '08. But Candice Michelle defeated Beth Phoenix and defended her Womens Champion on Unforgiven 2007. Clearly, that line in Maria's page must be taken down. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.74.9.166 (talk) 17:56, 4 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maria did defeat Beth's undefeted streak. Candice Michelle defeated Beth in '07, you are correct, but soon after Beth was injured and was out for several months. When she came back to the ring she had stayed undefeated UNTILL Maria had beaten her. It clearly should be put back up -Ali —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.95.53.18 (talk) 05:47, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

17 Year Old Sister

[edit]

So how long do we leave in this article that Maria has a 17 year old sister? Especially considering that her sister, according to this article, has been 17 for well over a year now. Is she 18, 19, or is she one of those never-aging types?

I think either someone needs to find this girl's birthdate and update accordingly, or her sister's age needs to be removed. TheJudge310 13:24, 24 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

well from Maria's official bebo page, and it HAS been confirmed as real. Her sister is 18, and pretty close to graduating high school from Ottowa Township High —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.113.12.86 (talk) 22:39, 5 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Maria does NOT have a bebo page. She said so in severall interviews, and on her official twitter account. -Ali —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.95.53.18 (talk) 05:52, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ron Simmons

[edit]

Shouldn't there be more recent information about what's been going on with her in the WWE? The last thing is from June. Especially since Santino became a heel and got overprotective, and she apparently has something with Ron Simmons.

Signature moves

[edit]

The standing bulldog should be removed and the running bulldog should stay. It looks better instead of having both. And what's the point of calling the kick a "Cartwheel into a Headscissors" followed by a Kick to the Head using the Heel. It isn't correct plus it's too long. I suggest someone put it as "Handstand kick". It sounds much better and it's more accurate.

80.80.140.50 (talk) 18:04, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The current description is quite accurate, as she does indeed perform a handstand into a headscissors position on her opponent, but instead of flipping them over she gives them a kick to the head. Also she's never established a finisher so far, only pinning an opponent once with her bulldog, since she's been a jobber for much of her in-ring career.

Myspace

[edit]

As She Confirmed To A New York Newspaper That She Had Myspace http://www.myspace.com/reallymaria She Confirmed It to Fans and She Has Proof. I Think It Should Be Put Down —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hamo95 (talkcontribs) 08:34, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

And just where can we find this "New York Newspaper" to list as a source, because that is the only way it will be added. Stormin' Foreman (talk) 08:59, 9 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Im Not Sure But It Was In 2006 So I Dont Know If I Will Be Able to Find it But She Also Confirmed it On Dave's Official Myspace and Shes Put down as real so i dont know i belive Her ive talked to her before —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hamo95 (talkcontribs) 08:06, 10 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Myspace.com/maria_boop? her Official Myspace... Shes seems Fake to me... that Torrie is fake (on her top friends). Myspace.com/boop_maria has been on Matt Hardy's top for awhile. but got taken off.. So i dont know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 202.63.32.90 (talk) 02:04, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Playboy

[edit]

Maria Is Doing Playboy and It Should Come out Around End Of March she confirmed it to some Newspaper —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hamo95 (talkcontribs) 00:18, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Hmm, first a MySpace and now Playboy from "some newspaper" which may or may not exist. Oh well... Either way Playboy is metioned several times throughout the article. (By the way please sign your posts).  Stormin' Foreman Got something to say? 00:35, 14 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Well if You Actually Took Time to Watch Wrestling You'd Know. Why Would Ashley Be Telling Maria About It? People these Days Make things They Dont Know About Hamo95 (talk) 08:09, 22 January 2008 (UTC) Hamo95[reply]

One: Please, don't capitalize every word in a sentence. Only the first word and proper nouns get capitalized. That'll make it a heck of a lot easier to read your posts. Two: Just because it's been brought up on WWE programming doesn't mean a thing when they haven't confirmed it yet, Playboy hasn't confirmed it yet. "Some paper"...care to provide the name of the paper? The person that wrote the article? The date the article appeared? A web link? Those are things needed to put in claims like that. Anakinjmt (talk) 02:47, 29 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It has since been revealed in the current edition of Playboy that Maria's spead will be in the next month's issue. Mshake3 (talk) 05:08, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The issue, however, is out March 7th, not at the end of March.Adg2k7 (talk) 21:54, 16 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Greek

[edit]

Does she have Greek roots? Her name seems to suggest so... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.103.171.232 (talk) 17:55, 7 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes she is part Greek. She states it numerious times in her love notes and in various WWE magazines: "My dad is Greek, so that makes me half greek".. and JR call her "WWE's own Greek Goddess". Also in WWE Raw Magazine: September 2005 - Vol. 11, No. 9 that featured Maria Poster/Centerfold reads: "Greek Goddess: Meet Maria Kanellis and follow her journey from a small town in the heart of Illinois to the limelight of WWE."[1] Bebo123 (talk) 10:50, 14 February 2008 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 168.233.1.6 (talk)

The surname is a common surname in Greece in an unchanged form (phonetically of course). --212.54.216.168 (talk) 20:45, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Even the first name. --212.54.216.168 (talk) 20:46, 18 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Her Debut Date Was Nov 1, Not Nov 4

[edit]

She debuted was on November 1, 2004 not November 4, 2004. Bucause she debuted on Raw, and that was on a Monday, whereas the 4th was on a Thursday. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mrrko (talkcontribs) 14:21, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Birth date

[edit]

I'd recommend removing the birth date from her article, since I can't find a reliable source repeating it. The one source we name, [2], disclaims it with "(possibly worked)", and google doesn't have an unanimous opinion about the birth date either. Does anyone have a reliable source for it? --AmaltheaTalk 23:57, 13 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

MySpace

[edit]

Does anyone have proof that the MySpace that keeps getting added is legit? Nikki311 23:54, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Flying Bunny?

[edit]

Can anybody confirm that the April 2008 edition of WWE Magazine called Maria's crossbody a Flying Bunny? I highly doubt it, as it would have been added when the name Seeing Stars was added back in April. I think it may be a fan name that an IP keeps adding, but I want to make sure. Anybody know? Nikki311 22:47, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Image

[edit]

i think we can replace the article image with one a little more flattering, may I suggest this one? [3] I also have this one, but its uh... [4] Sephiroth storm (talk) 17:40, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

We can only use free images that were uploaded to Wikipedia (or the Commons) by the person who took the picture. Otherwise, there can be copyright issues. Nikki311 19:22, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

lol, I did take the picture. I could have uploaded it, but I wanted to see if anyone cared. But the current one is good. Sephiroth storm (talk) 21:22, 10 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Maria And John Cena, Tag Partners and such

[edit]

I have realized that in the article it mentions a few of Maria's matches earlyer on in her WWE carrer, but it fails to mention anything about one of Maria's well-known matchs were she partnered with John Cena. During that night, John Cena is also shown backstage with Maria who had started to panic so he kissed her to calm her down. I think both of these two should be mentioned because they were two mayjor moments in the begining of her carrer, that led to a small feud with Lita. I also think that maybe it should mention Maria then begining to team up with big names such as Torrie Wilson, Jeff Hardy, Mickie James and Candice Michelle. If any one finds time could you add this in? Thanks - Ali —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.95.53.18 (talk) 06:05, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Michelle Fued.

[edit]

Once again the article has failed to mention something. I think its important for the article to have a little bit more on the Maria/Michelle fued. It was one of Maria's major WWE fueds. It should talk about the match she had been the spechial guest refere in that led to the fued and such. If anyone could also add any of this it would be well aprechiated. Thanks again -Ali —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.95.53.18 (talk) 06:10, 9 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox picture

[edit]

I'd like to propose switching the current picture in the infobox with this one which is in commons. I think that it is a better picture of her and it also is a more recognizable picture of her, especially her face. Allanlw 03:04, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Dating Mike Bennett

[edit]

Maria is indeed dating ROH's Mike Bennett. http://www.gerweck.net/2011/12/15/maria-kanellis-talks-dating-rohs-mike-bennett-tna-wwe-locker-room/ 123.211.123.125 (talk) 23:08, 15 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Kingdom

[edit]

Mentioned twice in article w/o explaining when it was formed or the role she plays in it. Could use elaboration. 64.228.91.102 (talk) 08:54, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Maria Kanellis

[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Maria Kanellis's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "TNA":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT 13:37, 14 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

First name

[edit]

An Instagram post shared by Kanellis herself annotates her first name as Mary. A Diva-Dirt column written by Kanellis herself states her first name is Mary. Any reason why we shouldn't believe it isn't? DantODB (talk) 19:02, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Instagram isn’t a source it’s social media secondly diva dirt hasn’t been or Proven reliable TheKinkdomMan (talk) 19:42, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Diva Dirt has not been proven as unreliable either and seeing that the cited article is written by Kanellis herself, where she states her first name as Mary, this should be given weight as a highly reliable citation. DantODB (talk) 19:59, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Be careful. Both of you are nearing WP:3RR violations. While I normally consider Diva Dirt an unreliable source, considering she wrote the article herself, I think it is an acceptable source in this instance. Nikki311 20:35, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed, the Diva Dirt article is an acceptable source in this case because it is written by the subject herself. WP:BLPSPS - "Never use self-published sources ... unless written or published by the subject of the article." ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹Speak 23:57, 5 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
