"last full-time wrestling territory"

edit

I'm not sure what purpose this section serves; I'm not even sure what it means. What does a "full-time" wrestling territory mean, and why wouldn't any of the territories that survived long after USWA count? e.g. OVW, which was an NWA member until 2000, why isn't that a "full-time" territory? Without explaining what those terms mean, as well as why it's significant, this section reads like marketing double-speak at the moment. Kutulu (talk) 17:50, 4 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

WWE owns the video library?

edit

The last thing mentioned about the USWA is that it was sold to XL Sports Ltd. Right now, the WWE Network is streaming a few dozen USWA television events from the "talent exchange" period. Does anyone know how they acquired these rights? Did they come with the talent exchange deal or did WWE buy them (as they seem to be scooping up a lot of old territory video libraries for their Vault)? Kutulu (talk) 17:56, 4 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Not sure when, but I found a link that will help: [1]. - Kiraroshi1976 (talk) 22:31, 4 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Identification of deceased persons

edit

I don't know how to do this myself, but it would be very helpful to readers if each "death dagger" following a name in this article can be made to appear as superscript. If not possible, perhaps use some other method to set off the "death dagger" from the name in some manner. I believe those names ending in a "t" most clearly show how much that "death dagger" symbol resembles the "t" character. Pdalton (talk) 20:34, 27 October 2022 (UTC)Reply

I see someone has went ahead and added this. Personally, I don't find it useful. An organization that has been defunct for three decades will have a handful of individuals who have since passed on.LM2000 (talk) 11:30, 21 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
