I mean Butch is one of the toughest old-school names. Maybe this is Vince's way of being high on him? lol Is he the offspring of a Bushwacker? Jeez.

lol he re-signed just before Triple H is out of power and this is what happens. His old contract expired around the same time that Adam Cole's did.

Vince can't even brand guys and he's out here trying to rebrand them all

I would have just settled for "Bruiser" so he could keep the moniker of "Bruiserweight"...ugh I'd have settled for just "Bruise." At least it's something new.

At least Pete doesn't have to worry about having to carry Shane, beetroot red and with sweat gushing from his head, to a watchable match sometime in the future.

Whoever thought it was a smart idea to change Pete Dunne's name, might suffer from "Dunneing" Kruger.

Pete Dunne debuting would be exciting and get people talking but it's not going to get as many people talking as changing his name did tonight and what do you know, people are lighting the place up talking about his name. Just business stuff. Less people would be talking if he didn't change his name.

I can't wait to see what name they give Ilja Dragunov if/when he comes up... even though just Dragunov on its own would be badass.

From Sean Ross Sapp:
Vince’s finger once again on the pop culture pulse.
I look forward to Bron Breakker’s rebranding as Potsie Fonzie.

I mean, it wouldn’t be a terrible name for a totally fresh debut I guess?
Changing names randomly on established acts for no real reason is just dumb though.

Knowing Vince it'd probably be "Wee Ladunov" or some stupid bullshit. Butch...just good god almighty...poor Dunne. Just when you think Vince can't "out-Vince" himself, he goes and does it.

One day Vince will just drop all pretense and rename a guy "Poopy McFartButtski".

Is it another "evil foreigners" stable? Is it? I wasn’t watching. I figure this is just “We need a third British/British-adjacent guy” and it’s like… You’re not writing a role for Dunne, you have a role and you’ve changed Dunne to fit in it.
