The recent Leah Van Damme thread, and think of her in the same company of Rob Van Damme (Szatkowski) got me thinking. How awkward must that be if they change her name because someone's fake name sounds like her real name.
AJ's real last name is Mendes. Imagine the inside jokes she could make about Rosa.
Any other instances where someone's wrestling name is too much like someone's real name? Were Virgil and Dusty in the same company at the same time?

John Cena and Jimmy Uso are both called John.
Oh the horror and confusion!

Any other instances where someone's wrestling name is too much like someone's real name? Were Virgil and Dusty in the same company at the same time? If Leah Van Damme is her real name, or a stage name she's used prior to WWE, she'll have to change it anyway, unless she signs over all rights to it to WWE. That seems to be their policy over the last couple of years. As for Virgil and Dusty Rhodes, you probably already know this; but he was called Virgil as a rib (maybe even insult) to Dusty Rhodes. And in WCW, they called him Vincent and then Shane to get back at the McMahons. |

Steve Austin's real last name is Williams. And in WCW, he occasionally teamed up with "Dr. Death" Steve Williams.

And his actual birth surname is Anderson. EDIT: Steve Austin's real last name is Williams. And in WCW, he occasionally teamed up with "Dr. Death" Steve Williams. Man! Beaten by mere seconds! |

While it never happened, it's a shame we never got Sylvester Stallone and The Rock together. It could've been Rocky Balboa and Rocky Melvin.
