Moving Page to Jeff Cobb

Latest comment: 7 years ago3 comments3 people in discussion

I am thinking that it would better to have the page title "Jeff Cobb." I am wondering how many people know him Jeff Cobb? I am just seeing if there is enough of a consensus to have the page titled Jeff Cobb. Mr. C.C.^{Hey yo!}_{I didn't do it!} 07:39, 27 February 2017 (UTC)Reply

With his popularity on the independent scene rising and the bandwagon slowing for lucha underground, I'd say it's safe to say he's more well known as his real name. Also it would be preferable for those researching amateur wrestlers. It would be confusing at first glance to follow a link for Jeff Cobb from the 2004 Olympics page to find a guy named Matanza.

The man is a legitimate Olympian with real-world athletic accomplishments under his real name. That should trump anything he's done in professional wrestling. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MonkeyMagicWakita (talk • contribs) 04:06, 7 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Moved as proposed, under either rationale. bd2412 T 22:46, 24 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Matanza Cueto → Jeff Cobb – With a recent stint in New Japan Pro-Wrestling, he is becoming more well known under his birth name rather than the ring name he uses in Lucha Underground. APM (talk) 01:18, 14 December 2017 (UTC)Reply

Support for different reasons - the subject was an Olympic athlete under his real name and was Guam's flag bearer in the 2004 Olympics opening ceremony. Google hits: 109,000 ("Jeff Cobb") vs 38,900 (Matanza Wrestling), 31,300 (Matanza "Lucha Underground") and 14,600 ("Matanza Cueto"). 79.65.126.84 (talk) 15:24, 20 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
