@kn, please don't think I'm trying to single you out, but how come there's always a "...." instead of the wrestler's new name in the thread title? Steen and the rest of the NXT guys are in an industry where one pretends to beat people up, I don't think there's any real drama as far as their new names possibly hurting their credibility.  |

I was hoping for him to be Kevin Steiner, the youngest of the Steiner Brothers who grew up in that cesspool called Mexico North, but this is fine too.

Best name for a indy standout since Daniel Bryan. Perfect to run with- no problems whatsoever.

AND HE CAN HAVE A HUNCHBACK! GET IT? CAUSE NO ONE CAN PIN HIS SHOULDERS TO THE MAT! HA HA HA HA! WHY AREN'T YOU LAUGHING!? EXCUSE ME WHILE I CHOP OFF MY NOSE TO SPITE MY FACE!!!" |

I called this, somebody would need to dig the post, but I called this weeks ago. Maybe they got it from me here! officialfan.proboards.com/thread/509433/kevin-steens-debutThere you go, 4th post from last on Page 1. Kevin Owen. They added an S. There's so many coincidences like this, there's no doubt in my mind they are reading us. And I don't mean the IWC at large, I mean US here at the FAN. |

It's a jobber name. I read it and think of a pale, thin guy in ill-fitting trunks about to get injured in an Ahmed Johnson squash.  in this corner... Kevin O!! |

How can we take a guy seriously with TWO FIRST NAMES!!!! In fairness "Owens" is rarely if ever a first name. Its more likely to be "Owen" in that respect. That said, its not a horrible name, but its certainly nothing memorable at the moment. Its obviously better than Michael McGillicutty or Husky Harris, but I guess its on Steen to make "Kevin Owens" a name to remember. |

Holy shit, a normal sounding name that doesn't sound bad and he has his real first name.
What is this madness!?

I approve of this. It also leads to the possibility of him being nicknamed "Big O" at some point in time. I approve of this too. Only if he screams, "BIG O! SHOWTIME!!!!" (his finisher was The Big O...yay for forgotten wrestler references) |

@kn, please don't think I'm trying to single you out, but how come there's always a "...." instead of the wrestler's new name in the thread title? Steen and the rest of the NXT guys are in an industry where one pretends to beat people up, I don't think there's any real drama as far as their new names possibly hurting their credibility. I understand I'm not sure honestly, it was typed in automatically, to be honest I don't even remember typing in the title lol. |

Once he debuts, I'm pretty sure no one will complain about his name being "generic".

I really just never got the hubbub over WWE's new name choices, lol. |

I don't like his name because I don't like names with matching syllables or names with similar sounds.

This reminds me, is there truth to the story that Monty Brown picked the name Marcus Cor Von in honor of a cousin of his who was killed or something?

I wouldn't be shocked if, at the least, he picked it, just since Braden Walker picked his own name. In his case, he claims it was asked of him last minute, with others saying he had like 2 weeks. |

I never thought WWE would let the name Owen or Owens be used. I'm kind of surprised.

I guess it's a trend that all fat guys from the indies must have the initials KO Shh. The first one wasn't fat until AFTER. |

Fight Owens Fight...ehhhh Fight Kevin Fight...hmmm That is going to take some work. Not a bad name though. Best name of the trio. I wouldn't doubt Full Sail's ability to come up with a unique chant either. |
