What sort of logic or method would you use to pick a gimmick name if you signed in NXT? We've all read the stories about how Sami Zayn, Finn Balor and Kevin Owens mixed their actual names or cultural history and stuff like that but then we get guys like Luke Harper and his indy name of Brodie Lee - why those names? His gimmick surnames become Harper Lee - is he a fan of the books? So what would you use as a methology for your ring name? IIRC he chose Brodie Lee because he looked/looks like actor Jason Lee. Jason Lees character in Mallrats was named Brodie Bruce. He just combined the character (who is fairly iconic) and actor and came up with Brodie Lee.

When I become a wrestler I want to use my brothers first name and my best friends middle name, because put together it sounds badass af.

My gimmick would be a heelish riding instructor who manages a stable of elite super athletes. So my name would be something pretentious and aristocratic. So...Hunter Hearst Helmsley?
