Recreation of Hell is Real and Cincinnati-Columbus rivalry. I am still not convinced that this meets WP:GNG, but the matches in MLS are quickly approaching (August 10, 2019) and it may very soon. I think further consensus needs to be generated on whether or not this article should be kept. Jay eyem (talk) 00:48, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep In spite of this being a young rivalry I think this is a clear pass, and even for the sake of argument it's not a clear pass, it's borderline and will be a clear pass in less than two weeks when they have their first league derby match. Plenty of WP:GNG coverage already such as FourFourTwo (referenced by the Guardian) and others [1] [2] [3] along with the assumedly non-RS usual US Soccer blogosphere.

Keep - this rivalry will only intensify after the two clubs play in August. SportingFlyer referenced some great articles on the topic and here is one more. [4] Ruschear90 16:19, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep There is enough to satisfy WP:GNG and more will come. Walter Görlitz (talk) 04:56, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, clear notability. The two teams may have only played once so far, but there are already news publications about this topic. BLAIXX 10:33, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Rivalry has received ample coverage in reliable sources. Obviously notable. Smartyllama (talk) 12:20, 26 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
