Entrant portraits are fan-made artwork, collected from the web and processed for use here. They depict WWE performers in ring names and costumes that are WWE trademarks, and some are derived from WWE video game character models. The rights in what they depict belong to WWE; the artwork itself belongs to the artists who made it. This site holds no licence for either, claims none, and uses them only to identify the people it reports on. They are removed on request — see the portrait credits below.

Portraits

Entrant portraits are processed from collected originals through a fixed pipeline, and every published one is listed here with where it came from and what was done to it. The list is generated from the same file that controls which portraits appear, so it cannot describe an image the site is not showing.

The arena and the typeface

The arena behind the home page is “Sydney Super Dome panorama” by Corrie Barklimore, via Wikimedia Commons, licensed under CC BY 2.0. Cropped, blurred, darkened and colour-graded.

The display type is Anton, by The Anton Project Authors, used under the SIL Open Font License 1.1 and cut down to the characters this site sets.

Where the data comes from

Everything published here is compiled from the sources below and cross-checked between them. No figure is copied from a single source and presented as settled.

Cited by 9 matches, primary for 9

Official, and canon for the nine matches it has published a stats article for. The only source giving elimination credit in both directions, which is what the validator's mirror check needs. It publishes no elimination order, so even a WWE-canon match takes that from elsewhere.

Cited by 49 matches, primary for 40

Primary for every match WWE has not published. Per-entrant tables giving draw, elimination order, eliminator and time in match. Text is available under CC BY-SA 4.0.

Darren's Win/Loss Records

Cited by 48 matches

Every entrant of every year in a single table, which makes it the best bulk cross-check. Thorough but unverified, so it is never primary here — it is the source the archive is checked against, and 384 of 1,440 records carry a dispute recorded from that comparison.

Pro Wrestling History

Cited by 1 match

One page covering 1988 to 2019, clean and easy to parse. It transposes 1988's first two entrants, so it is never trusted alone on entry order.

Smark Out Moment

Not currently cited

Aggregate records rather than per-entrant data. Used only where the others cannot answer a question.

Each match page lists the sources that specific match drew on, and which one was treated as primary.

How the data was checked

Sources disagree constantly, and that is a finding rather than a problem to tidy away. Cross-checking the archive against a second source produced 384 disagreements across 1,440 entrant records — 224 elimination orders, 115 eliminator lists and 7 identities. The time differences are spread from one second to over two minutes, which is real editorial disagreement rather than a systematic offset that could be corrected away.

Where sources disagree, both figures are recorded and neither is averaged. Averaging two published times produces a number no source asserts, that a reader cannot verify and this site cannot cite. The primary source’s figure is shown; the other is kept alongside it with the source it came from.

Entry and elimination timestamps are derived, not recorded. No source publishes them. Every source gives a time in the match, an entry number and an elimination order, so the position of each bar on a match timeline is solved from those — and each match declares how precise its timings are. A match whose timings are estimated is marked as such rather than presented with a precision the data does not have.

Corrections

If something here is wrong, it may well be — please get in touch. Knowing which source you are reading from helps a great deal.
