I can't wait for them to sign a soccer player and name him Sergio Phifa. "Pele! Pele!"

A couple more new names... Brennan Williams —> Dio Maddin Dan Matha —> Dorian Mak My God, it’s like when Ron Swanson found that typewriter... “I’m going to type every name I know!”. I hope dio's finisher is called rainbow in the dark A moonsault called the Holy Diver

lol at this thread WWE is just weird.
Alot of these names are pretty stupid, but the wrestlers comes up with them right in one way or another, right?
I also believe these indies guys got there names change cause they aren't on a certain level. And yes maybe AEW plays a factor. Will have to see when a bigger name guy signs.
Also I wouldn't be shock if guys like Shaw, Williams and Matha are trolling because they no they'll never make TV and just be on the Florida loop FOREVER!

Well, Shaw just got announced for a new talent tournament on NXT TV, so get used to Dexter Lumis. I'll give you the other two, though... I still remember when they ran vignettes for Matha only for them to be a complete fakeout for a Samoa Joe beatdown.

Also I don't find his name that bad. Yeah it's extremely on the nose, but it's pretty memorable.

Brennan Williams changed his name on IG to “Dio Madden.”
Hopefully new name = soon to get a proper debut.

His look is A+ elite, he has a wierd charisma about him, and based on his IG he has some pretty good MOVEZ. Hopefully he can put it all together.

My prediction is going to come true, it's only a matter of time.
Keith Lee's name will be Ferp before he makes it to SmackDown.

My ultimate dream is for someone to get signed and be given the former name of someone else that signed before them. Like they sign say Jeff Cobb and he shows up on NXT as Shane Strickland. I want that future.

On Wrestling Observer Radio, Dave Meltzer noted that there were multiple wrestlers going by “Jr” in NXT and when Vince McMahon found out he had them get new names.
Oh -boy- lol

Oh my god, did he name himself after his buddy Woolie Madden? If so, that is goddamn hilarious, given they'd already joked before that he is the upgraded form of Woolie. Checking twitter, sure seems to be in reference to him. That's amazing.

ACH was wrestling under his real name (Albert Hardie Jr) and Garza Jr became Angel Garza. So two. Two juniors got new names. And like 10 or 12 other non-juniors got new names. But go off Dave.

Yeah, different wrestlers have said countless times that they're asked to provide a list of names. I remember Summer Rae talking about the process, and Dusty reminding her to choose carefully, because she could be using this name for a long time. I almost think this is part of the process that decides whether certain wrestlers have a mind for the business or not. WWE fans: We should let the wrestlers put more of their ideas on screen! Dan Matha: I want to be called Dorian Mak!

Dan Matha: I want to be called Dorian Mak! Doesn't it usually work out that instead of actually picking a name from the list, one first name gets picked, then one last name (not necessarily the one that was meant to go with the first name) gets picked? Like, you give them "Mike Truk" and "Rico Hernandez", and they tell you you're gonna be "Rico Truk".
