From anyone I've talked to in the LI scene, Brimstone is a MAJOR mark for himself, a pain in the ass to deal with, and an all-around joke. I don't know his personally, but that's what i've heard.

Looking at the page history it's been nominated for deletion twice, but apparently he's notable enough to have his own Wiki article.

Tom Zenk or at least someone associated with him used to write his wiki page. It was hilarious to see him written up as a huge star.

I've never heard of him but he somehow got a bigger page than Martin Balsam.

Ulf Herman's Wiki is obviously written by himself it makes the most minor things he achieved look awesome.

I kind of know him through a shared a acquaintance and from everything he's ever told me about Brimstone this sounds about right.

Wikipedia amuses me sometimes, especially since it took years for Curt Hawkins and Zack Ryder to get their own Wikipedia pages (due to lack of notability, despite Zack being on ECW and national TV) and not be redirected to their tag team's page, in spite of them not teaming for years.
Yet these no-names are notable enough to get pages

I like that the page notes that he decided to become a wrestler at 21 and the very next sentence refers to him following a "lifelong dream" by becoming a wrestler.

I like that there is a whole section dedicated to his philanthrophy despite him not doing that much charity work at all x It even mentions appearing at a Wrestler's Rescue event. That's the opposite of philanthropy in so many ways. I guess they let it up because it has alot of linked sources. Too bad their mostly broken or my guess never existed. Those that are real only mention the actual facts like Derek Jeter appeared at this event but make no mention of him.

Maybe a lot of these guys did dream of wrestling their entire lives, but never seriously thought about going for it seriously until well into adulthood. They might have gone to college, joined the military, or spent some time in the workforce before deciding to actually pursue their dream.

It's a good read even if he's far from as big a star as it makes him seem. It makes him seem as big a wrestling star with cross-over appeal like Hogan or Rock or Cena. To a non-wrestling fan reading it, it makes him seem as big a wrestling star as Tom Hanks is to movies or Elvis was to music or Ted Williams was to baseball. To a wrestling fan reading it, who knows how big a star he is not, it should definately read as if he or someone very, very close wrote it. It does read as if it's a personal memoir written written like the Rock talks.
