Date, length, and NPOV are good. However, the first hook is cited to http://www.onlineworldofwrestling.com/ which I am skeptical if it qualifies as a reliable source. All of the alts are cited to various websites that imho are questionably reliable, but they are also cited to VHS/DVDs of the tournaments that were made by the organizers so I'm AGF on them. I don't know if information exists on official websites of the tournament results since it appears that a lot of the organizations that put them on are either defunct or were acquired by someone else in the interim, but if the info does exist, it would probably be a good idea to cite it. It's a nice article and fairly comprehensive, but I am a little nervous about the sourcing. I think it's probably ok except for the first hook, but someone else might want to look at it before this is promoted (hence the {{DYK?}}). Also, I think that ALT2 is probably the most interesting.

OWW.com is used on over 2,000 pro wrestling articles (including three featured articles). 72.74.196.113 (talk) 16:37, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

hmm so it is. Well, that being the case, it should be good to go. Again, I prefer ALT2, but any of them should be fine. Thingg^⊕^⊗ 21:01, 14 November 2013 (UTC)

Note: Striking ALT2 and ALT3 as both being over 200 characters. The others are short enough, and presumably checked. If you'd like to propose edited-down versions of ALT2 and ALT3, that's fine, but for the moment they're not usable. BlueMoonset (talk) 02:07, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
