Personal Life

Recently it has been added that Rockstar Spud has got engaged to former wrestler Jack Storm, without a citation. Whilst if true that is great and I wish nothing but happiness for both, a googling and a look at Rockstar Spud's Twitter account doesn't give me anything. I will leave it for right now, but a citation would be good. Maloot (talk) 21:14, 10 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Allegations

Without evidence from a website (not a message board or blog) that he's seen as a backstabber the allegation doesn't belong on Wikipedia --Kiltman67 19:37, 26 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

there is a wide veriaty of vandalism edit and allegations like this that appear on this page since i recently rewrote it... not sure why its a target for this --- Paulley 19:46, 26 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Rockstar Spud

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 Rockstar Spud'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.

Page Name after WWE DEBUT

The Page name should his current Ring Name Drake Maverick (renaming it from Rockstar Spud) BusriderSF2015 (talk) 10:25PM, 30 January 2018 (PT)

I second and support this. ADg2k14 (talk) 07:26, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please see WP:COMMONNAME. ŞůṜīΣĻ¹98¹^Speak 21:49, 31 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. Naming conventions are based on what a subject is most commonly known as. Curtin has been known as Rockstar Spud for a decade in many different wrestling promotions, and has been written about extensively by that name, and so his common name is Rockstar Spud. That could feasibly change in the future, but just because WWE have changed his ring name does not mean that this page will.Egaoblai (talk) 18:21, 18 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Rockstar Spud → Drake Maverick – I think, after 2 years, his WWE name is the common name. He is the 205 Live General Manager and former AOP manager. Also, since his storyline with the 24/7 champion, he has a lot of worldwide exposure. Yesterday's title win, 560.000 views. His lost against truth, 2.500.000 views. His wedding, near 5.000.000 his first title win, 1.756.000 --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 15:00, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support - Yeah, not all need a move the moment they get signed, but he's due for it now. It's the WP:COMMONNAME. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:06, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support - It meets the criteria for WP:NAMECHANGES, no RS seem to call him Rockstar Spud anymore. - Galatz גאליץ ^{שיחה Talk} 14:04, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support without a doubt the WP:COMMONNAME now. JTP ^{(talk • contribs)} 20:53, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support Probably should've happened sooner.LM2000 (talk) 23:36, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Support as per WP:NAMECHANGES. Probably still not a common name but likely to be in the very near future. - Fylindfotberserk (talk) 11:23, 4 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
