*'''Supported''' - I have no idea why the frogsplash an administrator decided to move to Desmond Wolfe in the first place - a couple of novice editors gave bad arguments for the move whilst three experienced editors were opposed. Nigel McGuinness is indubitably the COMMONNAME - hell, the wrestling media regularly referred to him as "the former Nigel McGuinness" (or variants) for most of his TNA tenure. Which was relatively brief and is now history. Also, TNA is not like WWE - a larger audience saw "Nigel McGuinness" wrestle (in the States, Europe and Japan) than ever saw "Desmond Wolfe". ]<sup>]</sup> 19:10, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

:He was on Wrestling Observer Radio yesterday and actually said he's 36 and will be 37 next year, so he's born 1976. Online World of Wrestling seems to be the only site that claims he was born 1978, so I'm changing that.] (]) 05:55, 6 December 2012 (UTC)
