I’ll be honest, a name change doesn’t bother me if I still like the new name and it makes sense.

And to be frank, sometimes they’re better. I’ll take Seth Rollins and Dean Ambrose over their indie names.

(Waits for the Moxley fans to roast me)

Yeah you set your self up with the Ambrose one.

But he’s been gone 3 years and that’s still what I call him.

I’m holding out hope that eventually they change Baby Steiner’s name. Bron/Bronson Steiner isn’t bad

I don't see him going anywhere else so I would like to see Bronson Steiner also.

Yeah that’s why I’m fine with Austin Theory becoming Theory. Like it makes sense, and it’s what I normally just said anyways. So like that one is completely fine.

Leakee was a badass in FCW. He wore glasses and expensive watches. It also is pronounced Lee-Ah-Key not Leak-y. :TI:

Which is what my issue with some of them come down to.

Pete Dunne vs Butch… one is clearly better, and it’s not what he’s using now.

He however should be able to use his real name because Peter England is awesome

Kacy upgrading to Katana is amazing tbh.

It’s a moot point provided the name isn’t woeful. Then the person is doa
