The kind of guy who's be jobbed out to pre-NWO Scott Norton lmao. He's in every 2001 EWR save next to Chad Collyer At the risk of horning in on this joke... he would also end up tagging with Norton in nWo Japan after never once being pushed in the West.

I don't know if it counts, but how about "The Rock?" It eventually became the actual name, but if i remember correctly, when he first started calling himself that, it was "The Rock" Rocky Maivia. In fact, I think I remember Jim Ross always saying it condescendingly on commentary.

"Above Average" Mike Sanders!
In seriousness, "The Swiss Superman" and "The Dutch Destroyer" are two great ones.

I've always been partial to the Ayatohla of Rock and Rolla and The Great One (but only when proceeded by One on One...). And let us not forget Booger Red

Definitely Stone Cold. I think they try too hard with names these days and a lot of them have too many syllable to be catchy and snappy like Stone Cold. Can you imagine JR screaming THE LUNATIC FRINGE! THE LUNATIC FRINGE! or THE EMPRESS OF TOMORROW! THE EMPRESS OF TOMORROW!

He ultimately had to retire after getting on Perry Saturn's last nerve, and Saturn broke the dude's neck and leg.

Gotta be Booger Red right? aaaaaaanyway..... A lot of the good ones have already been called out. And, since The Heartbreak Kid goes back further than 25 years I'll add HBK's alt nicknames to the list; The Showstopper....The Icon...The Main Event....Mister Wrestlemania.... Non-WWE; The Cleaner is pretty dope (especially when Kenny really leaned into that before he evolved into what he is now)

"Andre", yep, that's his name.
"The Giant", yes he is.
It sounded appropriately medieval. Didn't even need music.

He'd have had a few jobber matches in WWE and WCW as a masked guy and at least one of them would end in him being really belligerent and stiffing the guy he's facing. The kind of guy who's be jobbed out to pre-NWO Scott Norton lmao. As an aside, I've always liked "Flash" as Norton's nickname. And to add more names: -Most Miserable Son of a Bitch on The Planet aka The Human Suplex Machine, Taz

'The Snake" sounds so corny on it's own. But paired with "Jake" and "Roberts" just makes it awesome

"Stone Cold" is a great name. "Steve Austin" is not. BUT it did open the doors to another nickname I liked, "The Bionic Redneck." That was very clever. "Empress of Tomorrow" isn't bad. I was always partial to "All-American American." But the best ever, I think, is "The Bad Guy." But Steve Austin is even perfect for him. A) His name is Steve B) He's from Texas C) Austin is the capital of Texas D) Steve Austin was the Six Million Dollar Man. E) He was a bionic man. Everything synchs up perfectly. Still the way I remember the capital of Texas
