WWE'S One-Name wrestler fixation Unappreciation thread

"Neville"

Not hating on the wrestler but god damn at least let him keep his first name, just Neville makes me think some weasly English dude is gonna slink onstage.

"Rusev" "Cesaro" "Lashley" "Snitsky" shyt's gettin mad repetitive, almost as bad as those random ass names they be givin nikkas or those cringeworthy forced nicknames

I'm surprised Xavier Woods is still Xavier Woods.

 

[Pinyapplesuckas]

im ok with them calling guys by just a last name but dont completely erase the full name

 

[ThatKidBlackHippy]

in his case i dont mind, adrian was a random ass first name for him imo, neville is fine (i think he said its a tribute to an english soccer football player from newcastle as well as his reason for choosing it)

 

[I-Hate-You]

I don't even get the thinking behind it

Some a$$hole consultant probably told them it's good for their "international branding effort."

It only makes sense if like people use it as a nick name, but to act like that's the only name they have sounds dumb as fukk.. Like why give them a fake name if its just going to sound as generic as their real name, then once they get over take away half of that fake name and its always the first name they take away? Im glad they aint do that shyt during the attitude era, can you imagine if they just called stone cold Austin, after he won the king of the ring? or right when HH started his version of DX they swithed him to Helmsley? it doesn't make sense

Neville Neville father of Gary and Phil Neville

*Waits for Zayn to make his debut on the main roster*

Calling him Neville is super weird because that was my grandfather's name

 

[Riley Escobar]

Said this in the Raw thread, Neville is a WOAT first name that belongs in the 1940's

Adrian Neville always made me think of Aaron Neville lol

At least Cesaro and Rusev sound decent when you say them. Neville by itself does not.

If they're going to continue giving everybody two first names only to cut them off at the end, why not just give them character names again (ie. The Rock, Edge, Gangrel, Test...)

 

[Hi!]

Adrian Neville always made me think of Aaron Neville lol

I thought that was just me
