I know it's not the choice for name or anything, but I still spent 10 minutes ripping of ROH's logo. Haha.

I may be wrong, but I think I've figured out one recent World Champion that fits the trope of Complete Monster: Colt. First comes the Moral Event Horizon where he demolishes Jazzman, then he victimizes Viva the week before Christmassacre, then he puts Viva out of commision at that PPV, then he, Blood, and Stone/Amigo attack "Damn Right" Jackson to start the following NR, THEN repeatedly attacking anyone and everyone that opposed the Pantheon, THEN taking the title from Jackson after Pantheon interference, THEN the attack on Seth and Jessica Drakin that landed her in the hospital, THEN assaulting Sparks at STCS, THEN avoiding his commeppuance thanks to Lodi later that night, and so on and so forth until the short yet brutal Humiliation Conga courtesy of Whitey and Seth at BattleBowl.

Heh. I had forgot Whitey pinned Colt I think I went out of my way to try to make Whitey more of the face in that match, reflecting that a bit in commentary as well.

Wacky Worldwide Wrestling (WWWW) I like this one. It sort of stuck out for me too. Has a certain je ne sais crois to it. EDIT*** Also, if no one has claimed it, I can try and get the Demento/Jason Allen match done if needed. Sorry I didn't speak up sooner I was away from my comp for most of the weekend.

WWWW and ROA both get the Socko Seal of SureIsAGoodName. Also, I need somebody to send me the result of the tag team match if I'm to make that deadline.

Also, I do like the RoA logo you did, Viva - it may as well be the template for whatever we ultimately decide on.
