With Pete Dunne back, the aop rehired, Nox back and being Teagen again, LA KNIGHT, etc…
Is that everyone from 2020 that either has their names restored or have been rehired after a botched nxt call up (that’s not in AEW)?
Besides the weirdness of Angel and Humberto? And I don’t count guys who had their names changed in nxt like Imperium since they got those names over. I guess we never got the GYV back to normal before they left. Also Shotzi is still missing the Blackheart.

Well, they still haven't rehired The IIconics but it doesn't help that they keep getting pregnant. Unheralded name one... I want "Otis Dozovic" back. It feels odd that he's the only guy in his stable that doesn't get to have a full name.

I'll be happy when Big E gets Langston back, and Sheamus gets his O'Shaunessy back, and most importantly, Rocky gets his Maivia back!
I don't get why Butch going back to Pete Dunne is any type of big deal. He's been on the main roster as Butch for so long. HHH really overestimates how much people cared about old NXT. Most of the fans did not watch it. The revelation of, "Oh my gosh, he's Pete again!" really fell flat on me, and I watched NXT. Butch to Pete is a lateral name change. It's not like Doudrop going back to Piper Niven. In fact, I'm gonna say it. Pete is a downgrade! Bruiserweight Butch is a cool name it sounds like an old school terror. Gives you Killer Kowalski vibes. Pete Dunne sounds like the kid that always asks to copy your homework.
Let see other people with or dropped different names:
Io Shirai (but I think IYO Sky is kind a cool name) Elias and Ezekiel Samson (but they are not working for WWE)

Gunther I guess but I’m used to the name now. Absolutely hated it at first and wouldn’t call him that but I’m over it.

Butch is a bad name (not as bad as Doudrop) and is already the name of a WWE Hall of Famer.

I still really hate "Angel" as a dude's singular name it just sounds weird lol Has commentary called them Angel Garza and Humberto Carillo and their team name is Angel and Humberto (like the Shotzi and Nox team) or has it been dropped completely? I can’t recall either way

It feels odd that he's the only guy in his stable that doesn't get to have a full name. It’s kind of a tough name to spell and pronounce, this one isn’t that bad. Shotzi should get Blackheart back.

I can’t recall either way I never thought about Butch already being used by Bushwacker Butch!
Still think Brusierweight Butch is a cooler sounding name than the very ordinary sounding Pete Dunne. (Not that they ever actually called him Bruiserweight Butch)

Do they still use the phrase “local medical facility?”

I don't think Shotzi will get "Blackheart" back because I think they use that for Ciampa when he is heel.

They need to hire back Rick Boogs to restore balance in the universe.

When there’s a backstage promo where a wrestler chainsmokes while sneezing uncontrollably, we’ll know Vince is truly gone.
