Talk:Fingerpoke of Doom

message: Who says that Hogan/Nash "would have been one of the greatest matches of all time?"  That's purely opinion, and, personally, a match with two guys that can't WALK without getting hurt doesn't sound like one of the "greatest of all time."  VelvetKevorkian 04:00, 9 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Objectivity? 

message: There should be more explanation. Why did Nash go down? Was he just giving up? Tim Long 02:36, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Explanation

message: The part where it says that after the incident Nitro's ratings fell is very midleading. Nito had been struggling in the ratings since summer of 1998 and following WCW shows for at least the next few weeks did much better ratings than it had been doing in the weeks immediately leading up to the January 4th show.

thread_title:  goldberg rape? 

message: Does this really warrant its own page? It can be easily be merged into the Monday Night Wars page. 71.204.141.7 (talk) 13:07, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Obviously it doesn't, but smarks love to obsess over trivial niche topics, rather than improve or allow improvements to major articles. Hence why this comment has gone ignored for about 13 years. My campaign to determine and list an actual start date for the Attitude Era literally took years, until I found and provided the actual footage of the first on-screen usage of the scratch logo. 130.45.24.168 (talk) 07:05, 27 October 2022 (UTC)
thread_title: Merge This Page?

message: While I agree with GaryColemanFan above that adding analysis of ratings is original research, I think the article (particularly the lede) may need some type of disclaimer. Based on Eric Bischoff's noted comments, it might be better to place some kind of modifier in the lead, since the 600K number is in dispute from one of the main participants, and wrestling has been well known to embellish numbers. Any thoughts? Dayewalker (talk) 06:14, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Just to revisit this topic, I still feel that adding personal analysis of ratings is synthesis and original research. I'm still open to the thought of placing a modifer in the lede as above, though. Dayewalker (talk) 16:58, 4 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Ratings Question 

message: Should probably give credit to Scott Keith for coming up with the name. Keith also named the Five Moves of Doom (which had been mentioned by WWE) and has his Blog of Doom. Anything "__ of Doom!" pertaining to wrestling was likely coined by Keith. "Of Doom!" is supposed to be sarcastic, by the way.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.162.4.112 (talk) 23:02, 14 July 2014 (UTC)
