Wrestlers with ridiculous/stupid real names.

[Just John 0]

Paul Levesque. Good blueblood name, but it just doesn't work for the badass personality he's tried to put forth the last few years.

 

Randy Poffo isn't too great either.

[Guest jumpingbombangel]

Oh yeah, DDP is Page Falkinberg. Gay and stupid.

 

heh...i remember on a REALLY old episode of the Daily Show he was on, and when Kilborn asked him what his real name was, and he said Page Falkenberg, Kilborn asked "Isn't that a woman's name?"

 

Mom: "Page, get your ass in here before dinner gets cold!"

 

Kids: "Hahahahaha, yeah Page, you fag!"

 

DDP: "Aw Ma, can't I stay outside and creep people out with my face some more?"

Assuming it's his real name, I can't see why Bryan Danielson dropped American Dragon. Especially with a Christopher Daniels out on the indy market(by the way, why hasn't TNA or WWE brought Am Drag in?)

[Jingus 0]

That's part of it. But look at an Impact show: most of the matches are three minutes, tops. AmDrag's neo-Regal mat wrestling wouldn't do well under those time constraints.

[Guest netslob]

 

What, me worry?

[Steve J. Rogers 0]

He grew up to look like a fucking Brock though. That being Venom's real name gives it a rather intimidating connotation.

 

I'm still unable to track down Homicide's real name.

Okay, not an insult, but when Lesnar was hitting the NCAA and High School scenes, exactly how many people associated his name as being the same as the real name as a Spider-Man villian?

 

Think of it this way, how many casual comic book fans know Magneto's real name? Or Green Goblin?

 

Ask a causal fan who Oswald Cobblepot is, or Edward Nygma?

 

In other words, don't assume that people will "Get the connection"

 

How much do you want to bet Brock Lesnar never heard of Venom and/or Eddie Brock

 

Could be worse though, Dennis Rodman did call Lex Luger "Luthor" once in a promo, though I wonder if that was really a slip up though as Hogan is always booked as a "Superman" type and since Lex was the guy he was feuding with at the time... Add to the fact that Rodman at the time was marketed with Jordan and Pippen as "Superman, Batman and RODMAN" (as opposed to Robin of course)

Wasn't Paul Bearer's real name, Percy Pringle? I cant remember if that was his birth name, or just one he used it on the indies, but thats the most fucking awesome name ever!

[Guest sek69]

Paul Bearer's real name is William Moody. Percival Pringle III was his gimmick in World Class.

I always get a kick out of William Regal really being Darren Matthews.

Teddy ANNIS and Lita DUMAS... holy shit that's kinda funny.

I wasn't exactly serious, you know. But then again, if Stan Lee or whoever thought it was a good enough name for Venom, it can't be all bad.

 

Nelson Erazo is indeed a pretty bad name for Homicide. I had heard, knowing it was too good to be true, that his name was Jeeves Goldenkranz. At least that sounds funny, Nelson Erazo just sounds like a dork.

 

On that note, Low Ki's real name is Brandon, severely betraying his image. I can't remember his last name.

[Nighthawk 0]

Tammy Sytch should have legally married Candido so she could get rid of that dreadful last name. It's good for a wrestling heel goddess, but bad if she ever wanted to be, say...a 2nd grade teacher helping kids learn to rhyme.

I did know a third grade teacher named Mrs. Bassard.

Sean Morley = Val Venis

 

Robert Horne = Viscera

[Mystery Eskimo 0]

(Big Van) Vader is a much cooler name than Leon "The Baby Bull" White, so good move by Leon.

[Guest LooneyTune]

Sean Morley = Val Venis

 

Robert Horne = Viscera

Viscera's real name isn't Nelson Knight?! My sources lied to me again...

[Zetterberg is God 0]

Sean Morley = Val Venis

 

Robert Horne = Viscera

Viscera's real name isn't Nelson Knight?! My sources lied to me again...

I thought his name was Nelson Frazier.

[Guest LooneyTune]

Oh wait... Yeah, Frazier. I think TNA called him Nelson Knight during his 2 week run there, so thats probably where I got that from. I'll just call him the fat black guy who dressed in purple.

[JST 0]

Robert Horne is actually Mo.

 

Other names:

- Mark Magnus doesn't exactly scream "rebelling Arab-American".

- Baldo-Train. 'Matt Bloom' would've been eons better.

- Mark Canterbury. The former Henry Godwinn was actually pushed under that name for a short while.

- Mikey McGuirk. I never imagined a woman with that kind of name.

 

Uliuli Fifita

 

The man so nice they named him twice!

Low Ki's name is Brandon Silvestry

[Guest netslob]

Uliuli Fifita

it probably explains why he's such a bad-ass. he probably fought ALOT in school.

[CanadianChick 0]

Shannon Moore.

 

No guy should have the name Shannon. I hate it when parents name guys with names like that. Do they not think they'll get picked on?

[Guest sek69]

Hell, Haku's real name could be Pansy McFaggot and it wouldn't matter.

 

Would YOU say anything about it?

 

Actually I think Uliuli Fifita is a pretty cool name. I've seen some interesting Tongan names, he could have had a lot worse.

[Guest FromBeyondTheGrave]

Shannon Moore.

I think it suits him. Especially when he was in the boy band named 3 count.

[Epic Reine 0]

Hell, before he cut his hair and got the mohawk, the guy looked like a 12 year old chick, so Shannon suited him well IMO.

[CanadianChick 0]

That makes it even worse! If a guy looks girly, you don't want him to have a girly name. Why don't we just put him in frilly pink dresses while we're at it?

[Guest LooneyTune]

Who knows what Shannon does in his free time... maybe Pat Patterson, but who else?

[Jericholic82 0]

Lita wins this hands down with Amy Dumas. I can't imagine the torture she went through in grade school.

like that commercial a while back.

 

"So, whatta ya think, Mr. Dumb-Ass?"

 

"The name is Du-Mas."

damn thats the first thing I thought of when I saw that commercial lmao

[Jericholic82 0]

I was thinking about Yoko

 

Rodney doesnt sound like a real samoan sounding name does it?

 

 

and I would know since there were a lot of samoan kids at my high school

 

 

 

the sandman=James Fullington rather bland aint it?

[Dogbert 0]

Teddy Annis I mean how much would he have gotten made fun of in school. His name iss asshole. I mean he would have been fine until those first biology lessons but afterwards would have been hell.

Think that's bad?

 

His dad's name is B.J. Annis.

[Nighthawk 0]

Ok, they're not a wrestler, but there was a girl named Anita Dick. I have the yearbook to prove it.
