"later entered the world of pro-wresting, where his handsome face, Steve Reeves-like physique, athletic ability and showmanship propelled him to the top of the profession"
If he wrote this he might be more delusional than the Warrior and Shiek combined

That is pretty funny up until the "scrawny "Das Wunderkind" Alex Wright" part. Some things you just don't joke about.

I think we need a three-way feud between IRS, Double C, and Alex Wright.

"Sell out crowds" He left out Hogan's name apparantly, and Savage's, Andre's, Hart Foundation, Dino Bravo, Mike Sharpe...
Btw, anyone recall that story where Roma got in trouble for hitting one of his kid's teachers or something?

"Paul is also writing a cook book on the inner workings on the World Wrestling Federation, based on his 6 years with the company"

Here's a quote...
"He was the first openly gay wrestler in WCW."

Sounds like he or one of his dozens of fans wrote it.

Roma is gay? You learn something new everyday This is news to me. Roma really was the commish of Connecticut Championship Wrestling, and he had some kind of consulting/public speaking business he pimped pretty hard for awhile there, but I think the gay stuff is Wikishenanigans.

I just noticed this on Buff Bagwell's Wiki page:
"In November 1996, Bagwell joined the nWo, turning on Riggs and renaming himself Buff Bagwell - an appropriate moniker, as Bagwell possessed a handsome face and a well-developed physique that was second only to Paul Roma."
That "second only to Paul Roma" part is thrown in at the end for absolutely no reason. lol. I assume Roma just goes around making innocent little edits like this everywhere. Probably not, but its a fun thought.

LOL! This is so awesome! If Roma indeed did that himself, I will officially mark for him (again)! From: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jim_Powers"...play-by-play commentator Vince McMahon referred to them once as "a couple of young stallions". This was an understatement, as Powers possessed huge biceps and a chiseled torso, while Roma's physique resembled that of a Greek God."

I wonder how deep the Roma trail goes? Who else has a Roma reference thrown in for no reason?
"Hogan eventually called for the tag, but Savage - who mounted a rally - slapped Hogan in the face. He took his World Title, and went to the locker room. Hulk Hogan defeated The Twin Towers by himself. After the match, Hulk went to check on Elizabeth to see if she was OK. Macho Man was back there too. Macho Man was accusing Hogan of trying to steal Elizabeth from him. Hogan told Elizabeth to try and talk some sense into him. Then out of nowhere, Savage attacked him. Hogan would stagger in the lockerrooms and hallways attacking the Rockers and Hart Foundation. He dared not attack Paul Roma, as a sign of mutual respect for the man he had chosen to pass the torch to. The confrontation ended not only the greatest tag-team ever, but it also ended a great friendship and provoked a huge feud."

I don't know what you are talking about. THat wiki page is missing a lot of the things that you guys mentioned. Honestly, you would have even noticed a Paul Roma page in order to edit it?

Looking at the article, it definitely reeks of having weasel words and original research.

It looks like the page has been modified accordingly. Here's a great part...
"In 1993, Roma decided to take up wrestling again and went to World Championship Wrestling where he joined the Four Horsemen. With Arn Anderson, they won the WCW World Tag Team Titles.Despite being a face at this point, he was routinly booed by fans for his decided lack of talent or charisma."
