With your current name, I don't know what your finisher is, but if it's not called the Towering Inferno, that must be rectified immediately. I use a full Nelson slam and a running big boot as my finishes I haven't had a name for either but towering inferno I could use for my full Nelson slam With your size, I think a move that starts with the victim on your shoulders would look absolutely devastating, just because that's a long drop to the mat.

I love the idea of the Towering Inferno as finisher name. I think you should adopt that one. I get what you are saying about your name. The Tower could be the nickname. The come up with a bad ass first and Last. The American Sasquatch is ok but to make it work the over all look should fit it which can be a challenge. Long tight and a singlet top may not cut it. I would think "Hulk" like ripped shirt and pants would sell it.

I haven't watched the match yet, but as for the name thing, I agree with Can you afford to pay me, Gah that you should adopt "the Tower" as a nickname between a sweet first and last name.

I agree with the dudes saying that "The Tower" sounds more like a thing between names.
Random thought, but I was watching the match and I thought "The Skyliner" would be a badass nickname.
Your voice sounds a little too high. It sounds like a really petty gripe, but your yelling at the fans just sounded awkward. It's your voice and you can't do too much to change it, but maybe work on having a deeper tone or inflection when you say stuff.
The spot where he couldn't get you down near the end was great. The crowd was popping, brother.
Overall, pretty good.

I'm not digging American Sasquatch as a new possible name. What about Rip "The Tower" Drexler or "The Tower" Blaze Drexler? It's a sweet name that acknowledges your fandom to the Trail Blazers.

I like The Tower as a name more than Sasquatch. I get where merch is a concern, but Tower sounds more formidable, maybe something playing off of it for a shirt like "The view from the top is good" or something playing off of it like that. You're above them, while Sasquatch is sort of more primal in a way that kind of sounds like it'd be a country boy's gimmick. Nothing wrong with that, but something to keep in mind, while The Tower could be more egotistical. Think more like Kevin Nash, where he was big, but not portrayed as a dumb giant. He still has pride.

Also, Tower works well for naming convention. Your Full Nelson Slam could be the Towerbomb, for instance. Though, I guess Sasquatch could make your big boot the Bigfoot.

You're not blurry enough to be Sasquatch anyway.
