So it's been standard practice for a while now to only put tropes pertaining to an actor's work on their Creator/ page. Unfortunately, this hasn't happened yet with most of our pages on the Wrestling/ namespace, which hasn't been helped by Professional Wrestling's... complicated relationship with reality. As is, we've got this weird mixture of tropes regarding the actors' real lives and ones regarding the fictional personae they portray.
For example, Dwayne Johnson (the Rock) is listed as a Nice Guy because he's one in real life. Now, by all accounts, Johnson is an excellent example of a Mean Character, Nice Actor, but that doesn't change the fact that the role he generally plays is a loud-mouthed Small Name, Big Ego (well, Big Name Enormous Ego) Jerkass, or a Jerk with a Heart of Gold on a good day. Consequently, Nice Guy probably doesn't belong on his page unless his character, the Rock, really softened up lately.
The thing is, there are dozens if not hundreds of entries like this throughout the Wrestling/ namespace, and due to the weird, self-aware nature of Kayfabe, it can often be hard to tell what's talking about fact and what's talking about fiction. In short, a cleanup is going to require some pretty major work, but we should probably get started because things right now are a mess.
