In light of the short lived Experience saga. Can anyone recall any other short lived names for characters?
Wrestlecrap alum Max Moon was called The Comet Kid on his debut, but was Max Moon very shortly after (possibly even a week)
Any others?

Cain the Undertaker dropping the "Cain the" after one or two TV tapings Wasn't that some weird time wrap crao? Because he did the tapings first as Cain the Undertaker, but then debuted at Survivor Series as the Undertaker, then the tapings aired as Cain, then it was dropped forever more? So he was, then wasn't, then was, then wasn't again.

Really bugged me during the SS 90 episode of Something to Wrestle where Conrad claimed WWE has edited the footage to remove Cain, because I saw it live and it was never there.

Konnan was called Latin Fury for a handful of WWF dark matches back in 1992.

I thought one of the Mean Gene Update or Special Report segments shortly after Survivor Series called him Cain the Undertaker as well. Which seems like something they would’ve had time to edit. Also the WWF Magazine that previewed Royal Rumble 1991 called him simply “Cain” in a list of participants. As a kid, I was so confused. I kept looking through the pictures they had to find someone I didn’t know who might be Cain.

Didn't Paul Burchill start doing some sort of quasi-supervillain character called The Ripper, for a few weeks in ECW, before he disappeared?

The Submission Sorority lasting all of one week(?) before becoming Team PCB. I think they would have been better off sticking with submission sorority. Whatever the reason was for them changing it, it was a downgrade.

The Major Brothers were renamed Hawkins & Ryder after just four TV appearances. And in their official debut on ECW, they were actually The Major s Brothers before dropping the S the next week.
