Now I want to see someone get "The Rough Draft" as a nickname. If only the Authors of Pain used it as their first team name.

I didn't mind Great White for Sheamus, even with the unfavorable overtones. RE: Striker - he's the one who started "Altered Beast" for Batista, I think. I'll also second "Outlandish", though his "Giggity" promo to Alicia Fauuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucks might qualify. When they tried to get "Wildcat" going for Kofi, all I could think of was Braden Walker "Wildcat" Chris Harris "The Devil's favorite Demon" was a tad groanworthy for me.

I was never a "Rainbow-Haired Warrior" fan.

No love for that weird mid-2003 period of SmackDown! where Tazz was trying his damndest to get "The Man-ster" over for Brock Lesnar?
Because... he's a man... who's also a monster... or something?

Strowman as the mountain of a man. Would you prefer "Abominable Strowman"?

"The Pain" and "The Beast" for Lesnar.
"The Big Valbowski" for Val Venis.
"The Animal" for Batista.
"King of Kings" has never really been accepted for HHH.

first one I always come up with is Japanese Strat-o-caster. Ah yes. There was also Poison Fist of the Pacific Rim. Both names were attributed to Yoshi Tatsu. He stole that blatantly from the Simpsons

The Human Fence Bam Neely This is seriously one of my favorite shit nicknames I've ever heard, even outside of wrestling. Not a wall, nor a rampart, not even a moat nor a sturdy door... a freakin' fence. The least threatening and useful of all barriers of entry. Something the average 8 year old laughs at as they casually climb over or crawl under. That's why it was so hilarious when it was applied to Bam "My mom changes the channel when I'm on TV" Neely. "But Val, what about barbed wire, razor wire or electric fences!" The nickname was "HUMAN FENCE". If it was say, Bam "Razor Wire" Neely, it would still be shitty but it was least sounds slightly imposing or dangerous. I'm not sure these words have ever been said in the history of history: "Oh noes guys, it's a fence! We are DOOMED!" ~Hogan sees Neely standing behind a picket fence~ "It's the Fence, brother!"

Didn't the Big Show briefly go under the name Paul 'The Great' Wight?

So basically every nickname Matt Striker came up with. Somebody should go back and make a list of all the ridiculous nicknames Striker ever came up with. You could probably fill a novel with all of them. He called Gail Kim the Saigon Kid a few times. Saigon being in Vietnam and Gail being Korean. But then Striker was an English teacher so I guess him not knowing basic geography can be an excuse. He has a fair amount of borderline racist names for gail actually.

History and Geography are the two main things Social studies usually focus on at least in New York.

Can't forget the WWE actually thinking fans would refer to beloved babyface Daniel Bryan as "turd" That was such a weird f***ing thing, because it was both Ziggler and Ambrose calling him that once out of the blue, then it was never brought up again. I knew it was dead in the water when even JBL, noted Bryan critic/voice of Vince, never mentioned it.

I have a poster that refers to Kane as the Man Monster Machine. I have literally never heard this said.
