Comment

The majority of the internet has Mike's last name listed wrong. I asked somebody who knows him personally (for their privicy I don't want to disclose more than that) after having my suspicions and they confirmed it should be Brendli, not Brenley. I think this claim can be backed up if you do a search for "Mike Brendli", as this name is listed in some earlier results on the web. T

His name is Mike Brendli. Do a search on myspace.com for the name and you will come up with his genuine page.

Reviewer: –– Jezhotwells (talk) 22:13, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I shall be reviewing this article against the Good Article criteria, following its nomination for Good Article status.

Disambiguations: no disambiguations found

Link rot: one dead link tagged (ref #3 [1] is a blank page

Checking against GA criteria

GA review (see here for criteria)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS):
The prose meets the "reasonably good" standard and the article complies sufficiently with the MoS.

Personal life: teh sentences need to be consolidated into one paragraph.

I made few copy edits, mostly for spelling.[2]
Combined paragraph. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 15:42, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
As mentioned above ref #3 [the rap sheet) is just a blank page. This presents a problem for the citation about his arrest and bail. that statement absolutely has to be cited.
It seems as though his record has been clean. I made a search and didn't find anything. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 15:42, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well, if it can't be sourced that statement needs to be removed. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 21:53, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I'll let Nici decide on that, since she expanded the article. -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 21:57, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I understand your position, I did email Nici, who it appears is away from Wikipedia for a while. I am going to comment out that sentence as per WP:BLP guidelines. Then it can be re-added if sources are found. BLP criteria are quite clear on unsourced contentious material. I have also commented out all instances of <ref name="arrest">. I accept the details about weight and height on good faith.–– Jezhotwells (talk) 22:24, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

References supplied appear to be reliable and support the cited statements. All statements are sufficiently well cited.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
I guess that there isn't much more about his personal life to be found.
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Two images used, both correctly tagged and captioned.
Overall:
Pass/Fail:
OK, just a couple of points raised above, on hold for seven days. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 22:39, 13 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
OK, as the contentious unsourced material has been commented out, I am happy to pass this as a Good article. –– Jezhotwells (talk) 22:24, 14 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Michael Brendli → Mike Mondo – He is using this name currently in OVW and ROH. He never used his real name. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 20:15, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support "Mike Mondo" yields 4 results in Google News, "Mikey" "Spirit Squad" 1, "Michael Brendli" 0. Starship.paint (talk) 09:16, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Support I've never heard of Michael Brendli, but I sort of know Mike Mondo. I think it's fair to assume I'm not the only one. No real notability under his own name. InedibleHulk (talk) 23:42, 31 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
