Article lacks sufficient references to establish notability and it's unclear whether sufficient references could ever be found. Current references are mostly broken links about the founder or are promotional in nature. The claim that it is the second longest continuously running promotion is out of date (events were held 1998-2011). Founder Jamie Levine died in 2014 (https://www.orlandosentinel.com/news/os-xpm-2014-01-21-os-feature-obit-jamie-levine-20140121-story.html). Osubuckeyeguy (talk) 05:46, 10 December 2021 (UTC)

- Keep, as the promotion is a notable one, but the article could use expansion. Davidgoodheart (talk) 04:59, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Can you please show what sources provide the coverage that make this organization WP notable? Are you mixing up this group with World Extreme Cagefighting? Papaursa (talk) 13:47, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Delete My search found no significant coverage of this defunct organization in independent reliable sources. There is nothing that shows this meets any criteria of WP:GNG or WP:NORG. Papaursa (talk) 13:47, 11 December 2021 (UTC)
- Delete can find no evidence of notability with appropriate reliable sources, even older ones from it was still current.Frond Dishlock (talk) 10:03, 14 December 2021 (UTC)
