No contest?

edit

Che Mills no contest. Should this really be listed as a no contest. The testing was done by the UFC and not an outside independant commish. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 142.68.233.102 (talk) 06:08, 6 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Matt Riddle beat JON JONES in High School wrestling! Pic going around

edit

Someone should mention on this profile that on August 20, 2014 a viral picture is going around showing that this guy Riddle beat Jon Jones in high school wrestling tournament (Jones was 4th, riddle 1st). Go to Daniel Cormier's twitter account to get pic. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 208.70.28.126 (talk) 22:13, 20 August 2014 (UTC)Reply

The professional wrestler and former MMA fighter is by far the primary topic. Although in some promotions he has used his full name as his ring name, his Sherdog profile, IWD profile and various websites have referred to him as Matt Riddle.

Allegations

edit

I've removed material covering some allegations from the article under WP:BLPCRIME. My reasoning is:

  • These are allegations, which Riddle has denied. He has not been convicted.
  • Riddle is not, to my knowledge, a "public figure" as defined here.
  • Connected to the previous point, the sources seem to all be internal to the wrestling world.

If these allegations had been covered in mainstream, generalist publications I think there would be a stronger case to include them in the article, though my view is that unless the coverage was widespread it would still be inappropriate. Best, Wham2001 (talk) 05:46, 2 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

He is 100% a public figure. There are multiple non "wrestling word" new sources that talk about it as well as the affair that Riddle did admit to. Very poor judgement to remove the material. Best. --173.62.186.227 (talk) 02:53, 1 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
Can you provide some references to these sources, please? Wham2001 (talk) 08:12, 1 December 2020 (UTC)Reply
Posting here to note that I've removed the allegations section again; the sourcing had not improved. Wham2001 (talk) 07:18, 23 February 2021 (UTC)Reply
I've restored the section with an overhaul on sources. All sources I added adhere to the sourcing guidelines at WP:PW/RS.RF23 (talk) 06:38, 4 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Middle name?

edit

Is it Frederick or Thomas? The article says both. 197.89.10.212 (talk) 12:37, 7 February 2022 (UTC)Reply

Back to the mat

edit

Can't wait to see the "original bro" Matt riddle back in the ring. Sucks he's been gone but hopefully comes back better then ever. What a hell of a match he puts on no matter who he wrestles. He's awesome to watch , and he will do just about anything in the ring it seems.

 Be safe but kick some butt when u return Matt riddle. Can't wait to see u in the ring again bro. 2603:7080:913D:D7AD:E04C:EF15:B683:C03D (talk) 16:51, 15 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
