Since the event is known most for Owen Hart's death, perhaps there should be a "Death of Owen Hart" section. -- Scorpion 0422 03:20, 25 January 2008 (UTC)

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
I have failed the the GA nomination, for the reasons listed below.
Is there any chance it can be put on hold for a week to correct the problems. Pro-wrestling articles obviously take very long to get reviewed, and if we can correct the problems in a weeks time, can it be put on hold? King iMat thew 20 08 22:35, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Re this edit. Since (1999) is not part of the actual title of this event (either in the image used or in the prose later in the article, I don't think it needs to be in the lead, and if it is kept in the lead, it shouldn't be bolded. The 1999 appears to be a disambiguating phrase, not part of the title. -- JHunterJ ( talk) 01:44, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
I just realized I could be being ambiguous here. I'm not disagreeing with the title of the Wikipedia article, which definitely needs a disambiguating phrase like (1999). I'm disagreeing with the inclusion of that disambiguating phrase in the title of the event in the article's lede. The bolded " (1999)" can (and should) be dropped from the lede with no loss of clarity or information to a reader who has reached this article. -- JHunterJ ( talk) 12:10, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
I agree - have removed the 1999 from the lead. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 138.37.103.76 ( talk) 08:14, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
"...the wrestling industry mostly remembered the show for the accidental death of wrestler Owen Hart..." Why, what else was it remembered for? Does this sentence seem a bit out-of-place to anyone else? Lugnuts ( talk) 12:43, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
Er, how do you know what people remember events for? Maybe some people remember Over The Edge 1999 for the lame finish to Austin-Undertaker. And if someone you cared about won gold (or any medal come to think of it) at Munich 1972, that's what you would remember it for. I'm pretty sure Brazil remember World Cup 1994 for their ending their long losing streak and winning the World Cup, and not for the Escobar tragedy. I think it is wrong to say that this or that event is "mostly remembered for...." There can not possibly be any way to have a reliable source/citation for such a statement. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.245.159.97 ( talk) 09:41, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
Well, I wish I shared your Superpowers as a mindreader. It must be great being all-knowing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.245.159.97 ( talk) 06:49, 16 September 2009 (UTC)
I think it's beyond common sense that the event is mostly remembered for Owen Hart's death. It should be added. 75.99.101.86 ( talk) 20:48, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
This incident happened in May 1999 Vince Russo started working for WCW in October 1999 so he was a scriptwriter for WWF at the time of Hart's death not WCW. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.134.99.105 ( talk) 03:18, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
It is well known that no actual footage of Owen Hart falling exists. But has any footage of the Spanish dub of the show been preserved. Where is the proof of the clearly audible thud of Owen landing? Homer saves presidents ( talk • contribs) 07:07, 10 November 2010 (UTC)
Should their match be included in the result section ruled as a no contest ( WorldSeriesOfPoker500 ( talk) 02:50, 26 October 2011 (UTC))
What was the problem with the CNN link? GaryColemanFan ( talk) 17:09, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
I admit I have jumped the gun a bit but I feel that they’re should be a section under Results for where the Godfather and Blue Blazer match was suppose to be for historical accuracy. I can see from years ago there was a thread about this but rejected due to dispute over a ‘no contest’ result, but I feel that it could be placed there but with instead have something said like ‘did not start due to incident’
I have already posted it on the main page, if removed prior to decision is made I ask if that could be kept safe on this page until a decision.
Thank you — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.137.161.202 ( talk) 19:00, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
