The bios of people on such shows are PR puffery at its worst. Only the most basic facts can be considered true, I think.
In some ways, best handled by treating such bios in classic NPOV fashion - 'According to the show's website, <person> ...'
These biographies are probably semi-fiction, but in some ways should be handled like pro-wrestlers' official biographies - important in the context of the fictional character they play, but should be separated from the real-life person.
