Gene Petit → Cousin Luke – procedural nomination per this discussion in rfd, with the nom's rationale being that the subject is primarily known by his ring name. this counts as procedural, right? consarn _{(speak evil) (see evil)} 11:24, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. He has held championships as "The Mongol" and "Gene Lewis", so definitely well-known by those ring names as well. When a wrestler is not overwhelmingly known by a single ring name, we usually default to the birth name - see Talk:Sid Eudy for a recent example. 162 etc. (talk) 16:36, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]
