[edit] Portland Wrestling Merger
The entry for Portland Wrestling should be merged with the entry for Pacific Northwest wrestling for a simple reason - they are the same organization. When Portland Wrestling re-opened in either 2000 or 2001, as part of the promotional video package aired on their first TV broadcast on the WB, they established that they were the new version of the old PNW, and stressed a title lineage with the PNW belts and are currently using the old Pacific Northwest titles.
Thus, I believe that is appropriate and fitting of the purpose of Wikipedia (and the Pro Wrestling WikiProject) to combine the two entries into one, to better represent the history of Pacific Northwest Wrestling/Portland Wrestling. Peyton Westlake 06:20, 29 December 2006 (UTC)
- I brought the Portland Wrestling page back onto the PNW page, but I'm not certain it belongs here. While PW claims their titles to be of the same lineage, they are not; and even if they are using the old PNW belts, those belts said "NWA" on the top of them, the current form of PW is not affiliated with the NWA.
- I'm finding further difficulty with the fact that I am unable to determine if Sandy Barr sold his company to the person who (re)started Portland Wrestling in 2001 or if the person started it on their own (Don Coss as owner was honestly a slightly educated guess based only on the fact that he has ties to the original PNW/PW and that he is listed as the Chairman of the Board of the current PW); which leads me to the fact that I can not determine who owned PW from 2001-2003, and IF it was even sold to Frank Culbertson in 2003.
- It's there for now, but I'd like to see some discussion on this.Theophilus75 23:59, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Importance level to the pro wrestling project
I changed the importance level to mid because it doesn't cover general knowledge (high) or highly specific area of knowledge or an obscure piece of trivia (low), but rather it it fills in some more specific knowledge of certain areas. Pacific Northwest Wrestling under Don Owen was one of the major territories from the 1940/50s to the early 1980s. Even after WWF, PNW held strong as a major player throught the 1980's, and even up until its closing in 1992 still was promoting matches with tops stars (Roddy Piper, Crush of Demolition, the Harris Brothers).Theophilus75 21:24, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
