These singularly-named guys should go all-caps for their ring names, WALTER style.

Man, this dude has been completely ruined on the main roster. He's barely featured, loses when he does show up, and now he's even lost his cool name.

Somewhere in a deep dark hole, all the names that have been lost to time are congregating and forming brand new identities together, waiting for the day when they're strong enough to rise up and crush those that left them behind. Sheamus and Cesaro beware: Soon you will find yourselves face to face with Antonio O'Shanessey. He can team up with Alex Samson.

They shortened it to what is part of his real name. Should he ever leave, he could continue to use the name Andrade. Damn. That's a W for him. Didn't catch that.

Guys, guys, guys. This is only a problem for anyone whose first or last name begins with "A." Antonio Cesaro Alexander Rusev Adrian Neville Andrade Almas Why is it always the non-Americans with names starting with A that get shortened? Like, if Austin Aries was Canadian would be have been just Aries?

For everyone complaining about guys being dropped to one name, blame Goldberg. WCW dropped "Bill" from his name just as he was taking off. Therefore, Vince thinks the next big thing will be a guy with one name.
Problem is he picks guys who are crap or who he's booked like crap for most of their run...

I would love to know what they think this stuff accomplishes. I'm gonna give a wild guess and say that it's for trademark/merchandising reasons.

I haven’t watched Smackdown yet, but is it just a case of shortening his name so it’s easier to read? Or, was he announced as just Andrade during his entrance?

I can't wait for the debut of that hot up and comer from NXT, Velvet Oh he's definitely gonna just be Velveteen. And he'll have a promo against Roode or someone where they'll go "Velveteen? More like Velveeta Cheese, cause you STINK!" When this happens, and it will, I'll be officially recognized as a Wizard.
