WP:BLP concerns[edit]

I've removed Jake Roberts' claims. Given that Jake and his father have a strained relationship the claim must be treated with extreme caution. Also at the time the claims were made Jake was known for his substance abuse problems, so again the claims must be treated with caution. Please do not re-insert the information, thanks.

I agree completely. His comments about his father were said in the documentary "Beyond the Mat", but they were also coming from a crack addict at the lowest point of addiction. Hopefully the recent rumors are true that Jake has cleaned up his life.--Hndsmepete 19:59, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Mortieas[edit]

The Mortieas are listed as a team that Smith feuded with,but I am unfamiliar with the name and can't find references to them. Is this a real team or is this some sort of typo?--User:Khajidha (talk) (contributions) 17:19, 21 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The only mentions I can find of this team are obvious copies of our article. I have removed the name until someone can find proper documentation. --User:Khajidha (talk) (contributions) 13:01, 23 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
