You have wrestlers listed as having wrestled for over and hour due to being in the royal rumble where someone like the great khali is said to be able to wrestle for over and hour cuz he was in it. thats not how it works, he was in the match for two minutes. 30 guys enter and then eliminate each other till it ends. its not all 30 guys in the match at the same tiem for an hour. thats just ridic. so if everyone has high stamina cuz they can "all fight for an hour", thats just wrong.
 
I wrote up my own thread, but just before it I found this one, so I'll just paste that here

The Great Khali's page had an unauthorised edit by a user recently, which brought up a good point; why is a Royal Rumble being presented as if he fought for over an hour? He was just one of many entrants that fought for a few minutes.

Since the other matches listed are much better indications of his stamina, I think they should be removed.

And hell, I don't think the "Superhuman" rating is justified here. Unless there were breaks which we're not meant to treat as canon events, then the actions undertaken were demonstrably ones which could be done by real humans. I'm not sure about the entire list of pages that would be affected by this, so help from supporters on that would be appreciated. Note that this would only be for ones based purely on energy-exertion; from a quick look at some other page's justifications, some are based on wounds which the actors didn't actually suffer, and so those could stay.

Lastly, why isn't his profile linked on the Professional Wrestling page? I'm not sure exactly which section it should go under, but that should be fixed up.

I'm not exactly a supporter of Pro-Wrestling, nor do I seem to recall accepting Superhuman stamina based on lasting for hours when it comes to matches unless it was grounds for a supporting stamina feat.

I'll be honest and say that I did not feel like adding more justifications to some of the wrestlers' stamina sections because I did not care for their profiles.

The Great Khali has no stamina explanations that justify "Superhuman" stamina, so yeah I agree he shouldn't be labeled as Superhuman. A few other profiles should have their "Superhuman" stamina labelings removed.
 
I will like to clarify that there have been wrestlers that have lasted an hour or more in a Royal Rumble (or at the very least close to an hour), however that's not as impressive as fighting a one-on-one singles match for 60 mins straight, considering the amount of wrestlers that can be in one ring during a Royal Rumble, as well as the fact that the wrestlers have some moments of resting periods where no one attacks them.

Wrestlers who have fought in 60+ minute singles matches take a lot more hits (and to be frank a lot more direct hits) than wrestlers who lasted 60+ minutes in the Royal Rumble.

Someone like Daniel Byran lasted an hour, yes, so it's fair to list it on his. But going "Khali wrestled for 77 minutes in the royal rumble" is just lying.
