SNME, which was deliberately structured (a la Saturday Night Live) to have the big Hulk Hogan world title defence at the start so that viewers could doze off in front of the support bouts afterwards. Some of these pages have had the main event relabelled "final match" but I think something should be done about this with this here style guide which seems to be at the root of the problem.

and reception" are all legitimate options, or leave it out totally if it doesn't make sense. Also - you think "AJ Styles" isn't a persona? or that he has always portrayed the same persona? Heel AJ vs. Face AJ vs. variations of the same in TNA. If it's a "burden" then don't worry about it. Once you can answer please do tell me what clarifications you may still have

Attaching them to the Reign column makes it clear that there is a discrepancy with the overall reign number. However, this column is both disconnected from the wrestler names and is such a far distance away that it is not immediately clear which reign number refers to which wrestler. I just looked at

The "In wrestling" section was removed last year in June but I think that the section was useful in terms of professional wrestling fans and readers who used to search Knowledge (XXG). It was a very useful information for readers as we could get to know about the finishing moves and signature moves

So to me this section is all about context - "professional wrestling style", "professional wrestling persona", "professional wrestling persona and style", "professional wrestling style and reception", "professional wrestling persona and reception", or indeed "professional wrestling persona, style,

As long as we have something shows both the team reign and the individual reign, then I'm happy. But we do need something, because it needs to be pointed out - for example - that even though this is Ronda Rousey and Shayna Baszler's first reign as a team, it's Baszler's third reign individually.

that appears to be what happened. As for a new explanation. When team is set to yes, the description for the Reign column could say "Reign number for the specific team. Parenthetical numbers beneath indicate reign number of the individuals if different from team number." Or something along those

This rule has produced some ridicuous results on some pages, for example light comic releif match Steiner & Missy vs Arn and Paul E as "main event" of the 1991 Great American Bash instead of the Luger/Windham world title match and various borderline TV enhancement matches as "main events" of

what if we made a separate key for tag team championship articles in which the description for Reigns for the second option, it would cover what the parenthetical numbers mean and those numbers are in order based on the order of the individuals. Or just update the current key to reflect that.

From reading it back, I see I misread your response to my initial comment, and I think you misread my counter-proposal in turn. My mock-up proposal was an alternate approach to keep the status quo and explain the numbers in parenthesis beside the wrestler's names (hence "Wrestler

I'm confused. I implemented what I see is the only proposal in this section (the addition to the Key). Vjmlhds changed something on a specific article (which uses a completely different format to our championship history tables), but no verbiage or anything was relayed.
842:
You had noted issues with both approaches (the current and my proposal), but said you leaned more towards all the numbers being in the Reigns column. I thought your proposal to the Key was to make it clear what all the numbers in the Reigns column meant.

of professional wrestlers and we were able to know the real name of that move used. It was a very useful information regarding professional wrestlers but I have found very difficulty in getting that information. Kindly revive the "In wrestling" section.--
162: 765:
wait, which did you implement? I thought individual reigns were going under the Reigns column as well (in parentheses), but it looks as if the key was updated to say what the number by the name means.

is that under that reigns column for a tag team, we put the reign number for the team and then in small text under that in parentheses, we have the individual numbers for each person if different.

I've always found this to be odd. An issue with this is that we don't have any kind of key that actually says what that small number means. We just assume the reader is going to understand.

As someone interested in finding out a wrestler's finisher, I don't want to read a prose description of a stage persona compiled in a ham-fisted way from news stories.

Currently, the way we address an individual who has multiple reigns with a championship but different partners for those reigns, we list them in the reigns table as:

Could maybe take it a step further and change mentions of "champion" to "team" in the key/table header for extra clarity. (E.g., "Reign number for the specific

Crossed wires aside, I'm still fine with your proposal. But we need a new explanation for the Reigns column in the Key.

And in the "Reigns" column itself, we just put the number for the team only, so with the above example, it's just 1.
