"K" in relliK

"K" in relliK is spelled backwards, as you can see here. Could someone correct that? --RockyMM (talk) 12:17, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

We did the best we could. The closest we can get for for is putting a K in here and copying what it gives us (ʞ) into the article. The only known alternate at this point is to just say "(with the K written backwards)". --real _decimic 03:43, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

look here and you should see how it should be spelled.68.18.216.138 (talk) 19:24, 22 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Internet Explorer can't display letters backwards, so the TNA website doesn't format his name correctly. In graphics, his name is spelled with a backwards K, as at [1]. McPhail (talk) 17:34, 23 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Need a backwards K?

Completely irrelavent, WP:MOS says to use the Latin alphabet whenever possible and translate it into the latin alphabet when its not, this should not be an exception to that. This is the reason the article Korn is not KoЯn. — Moe ε 03:47, 27 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

We don't spell the thunderbolt in AC/DC, either. InedibleHulk (talk) 19:57, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 6 March 2015

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: No consensus to move. The one commentator apart from the nominator prefers to keep it where it is to avoid having to choose between stage names, and this talk hasn't gone anywhere for a few weeks, so can't really call a consensus right now. (non-admin closure) — Amakuru (talk) 13:03, 26 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Jon Hugger → Johnny the Bull – Wrestled under this name in two of the largest promotions in the world (WCW and WWF/E) for five years. During this time he became a Hardcore and Tag champion in WCW and a Hardcore champ in WWE. WWE did modify the name by adding "Stamboli" to it but I think this is inconsequential. He went on to wrestle under other names (most notably Rellik) but none gained as much notoriety. --Relisted. — Amakuru (talk) 13:52, 18 March 2015 (UTC) LM2000 (talk) 09:46, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

If you're going for the most visible name, that'd be "Johnny Stamboli". His WCW run was part of the dying years, much higher profile in WWE. Probably why he kept it afterward for All Japan and CMLL. Rellik was on TV quite a bit, in TNA, AAA and a little in Lucha Libre USA. Less airtime, but the most conspicuous look. I say it's good where it is, like I do for all wrestlers with roughly equal gimmicks. InedibleHulk (talk) 16:10, 6 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Out of 184 televised matches, 105 were as Johnny Stamboli in WWE/AJPW/others, while 43 were as Johnny the Bull in WCW. Rellik hasn't won anything, I believe. Also, Jon Huber. starship.paint ~ ¡Olé! 07:07, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

What about Jon Huber? Rellik's the only guy to win a "Silent Night, Bloody Night" match. I think. InedibleHulk (talk) 17:46, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I went with "Johnny the Bull" because that was his WCW name, "Johnny 'the bull' Stamboli" was his WWE name, it seemed like this name covered the reoccurring features. I'd obviously support a move to just "Johnny Stamboli" if that gets more support.LM2000 (talk) 09:24, 7 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Jon Hugger → Johnny Stamboli – Hugger's most high profile appearances were for WCW as "Johnny the Bull" and WWE as "Johnny Stamboli". Of 503 matches on records, 292 (58%) were as "Johnny Stamboli". Hugger is not well known under his real name. McPhail (talk) 16:31, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per nom. -"Ghost of Dan Gurney" 19:27, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Not sure why this needs to be a discussion. It's not a controversial move. But I understand why you did. Within the scope of the project, biographical articles are to be under their most common name. It's pretty obvious what the article should be titled. Mr. C.C.^{Hey yo!}_{I didn't do it!} 04:19, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support I proposed "Johnny The Bull" years ago but Stamboli probably makes more sense (same character, adjusted name). He later used Rellik in TNA and the indies, which is why the article sits at its current name, but Rellik is more obscure and he is not widely known by his actual name.LM2000 (talk) 10:14, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per nominator. Funny Fact, I always called him Stramboli, like the city. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 13:29, 7 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
