Trivia
- He is the younger brother of JeBB, an MD/VA Bayonetta and Lucas player who is currently ranked 10th on the MD/VA Smash 4 Power Rankings.
- In 2017, WaDi set the record for the most Smash 4 tournaments won at Xanadu, surpassing the record of 27 victories that was previously held by Boss.
- WaDi's gamer tag comes from his former mains Wario and R.O.B, and how Wario's name sounds like "Wadio" in-game.
- Furthermore, the capitalization of the letters “W”, “D”, and “R” in his tag “WaDiRob” is in homage to his usage of Wario, King Dedede, and R.O.B. in Super Smash Bros. Brawl.
- Before his first match at the 2GG Championship, WaDi became engaged to his girlfriend and fellow MD/VA smasher, Cinnpie, proposing to her onstage.
- WaDi shares his birthday with Mew2King.
