Objectives
The main objectives of this page are to...
- Create profiles for the world's most notable wrestlers. valets, managers and referees that have passed on.
- Format all profiles so they have a consistent look.
- Write a fun and accurate biography for each profile in our own words.
- Source each profile as thoroughly as possible.
- Connect each profile to the Big Tree.
Please see the Completed Profile Checklist for guidelines on what The Notables Project considers to be an essentially completed profile.
Membership
This has been a labor of love, worked on primarily by me. If you'd like to join this project, please post a comment here on this page.
Please note! Even though some of these performers may fall into multiple categories, they will reside in the group that they are best remembered as.
