WWE has changed the ring names of several developmental performers in Florida Championship Wrestling. The roster section on the FCW website reflects the new changes. Here is the list of wrestlers who had their ring names changed.
- Bryan Kelly is now Bryan Sexton.
- Kevin Kiley is now Carson Oakley.
- Lupe Martinez is now Damien Santiago.
- Armani Lee is now "Pretty Boy" Nelson Roy.
- Heath Miller is now Sebastian Slater.
- Gabe Tuft is now Taj Milano.
- Greg Jackson is now Trent Baretta.
- Tyrone Jones is now Tyson Tarver.
- Daisy is now Wesley Holiday.
Everyone else on the roster remains untouched, sans the performers recently called up to the main WWE roster.
Also, Jon Emminger went under the name Johnny Prime at last Thursday's show, but his name remains the same on the website.

Does creative have like a big book of names and just put random combination together to make each person they call up more generic then the last?
Carson Oakley? Trent Baretta? Sebastian Slater?
Seriously?
Oh, and Wesley for a female?
I still don't get the point of giving guys a "real name" sounding name that's fake. If you want a real name, just use their real name. Unless it's something God awful, like Hickenbottom. What, is it a punishment if Ryan Braddock doesn't get over in WWE and they dump him and he can't use that name anymore? I wouldn't want it anymore anyway.

Hence, it makes sense for them to try to come up with stage names for them to use to see if they catch on. If they fail, the performer can go back to their normal name and not be associated with the failure. I actually do see the point behind giving them stage names.

The one big thing here is that at least this tells us who's coming down the pike as far as "callups" are concerned.

Whoever comes up with the names is seriously on crack. These seems to have started when Monty Brown was named Marcus Cor Von. Its like they just come up with some name they think is catchy but is really generic sounding.
Most of the talent they have down there and that has been brought up just don't have it, and they are less likely to get over with some generic name. They need gimmicks.
