Kinda surprised they haven't given Knight a new name (yet).

Kinda surprised they haven't given Knight a new name (yet). The supposed reasons why they’ve been giving people new names all the time lately don’t apply to Knight. It wasn’t a prior name used on the indies, nor does it use all/part of his real name, so I’m leaning towards any change being unlikely at this point.

Yeah, LA Knight is very much a WWE approved name so it’d be weird to change that again, especially since Knight Management Services sounds like a damn cool stable name.

Yeah, LA Knight would kill as a manager. He’s nearly 40. Anybody saying he’s finished is probably wrong. If anything, this would extend his WWE longevity. This is not an Adam Cole situation.

This pretty much means RSB will next make the main roster since LA will probably do the same thing. This is very disappointing

Yup, its been confirmed by PWInsider, but here are the four new names trademarked by WWE.
Roxanne Perez
Alba Fyre
Cruz Del Torio
Katana Chance
We know who Roxanne Perez and Cruz Del Torio are (Rok-C and Raul Mendoza respectively), but Alba Fyre and Katana Chance are two different names all together. People are speculating Alba Fyre is Kay Lee Ray, and that Katana Chance is Io Shirai.

People are speculating Alba Fyre is Kay Lee Ray, and that Katana Chance is Io Shirai. Look, I’m sick of this nonsense as much as everyone else is, but I can’t be angry anymore. This kind of thing only potentially hurts people while they’re in WWE these days, not after they get cut. Assuming what could happen happens, what either happens from there is that they actually get pushed under these names (crazier things have happened), or they don’t get pushed, get let go, go back to their old names and get a go at being a star somewhere else. This is especially crucial for Shirai as that’s not a real name for her.

Katana Chance could also be Kacy Catanzaro. Same initials.

Yeah, all I wish is that this’d be linked into NXT canon somewhat, like have him realize he needs to go a different route in his life and so people who likely watch both that and Smackdown could go “Oh yeah, that’s what he meant” but that doesn’t seem like a WWE thing to do so I’ll just have to take it as is.

Katana Chance makes alot more sense being Kacy Cantazors new name , same initials , she was on ninja warrior etc.
So please gawd let that be her name.
But even saying that if it ended up being Io's name...yea that sucks but that is such a minimal worrie for me because her in ring ability alone will overcome shit like a horrible name what I am worried about is if she gets the call up and is completely nerfed in ring by making her compete in nothing but incredibly short matches that do nothing to show off that ability that makes her the best womens wrestler on the planet.

Shirai has to be counting the days left on her contract.

I don't like to re-post stuff said in a random comment on a comment section unless sites actually start reporting it. I'm going to do it here in case someone can track down said source if it actually exists. Apparently, Katana Chance is the main roster re-name for Dakota Kai and she'll be paired with Alba Fyre (KLR) and Becky Lynch as a new heel faction. I could see how it fits: Katana/heads off/kicking heads off. It also fits with SRS saying last week Io wasn't planned to be call up. But would they clear both out of 2.0 when they need vets esp with a new training camp crop coming up? Especially with Asuka, Lacey, Bayley and debuting Raquel on the main roster? If this is true I hope it's a success for both. Or Io if it turns out to actually be her after all. Sadly if true it also says two things. NXT trademarked names can be changed for call-up. Investing time on character development in 2.0 for months means jack in the long run aka so much for 'developing characters' for the main roster reasoning for the new NXT.

I don't think they care about experience in NXT any more. They're rushing people up because they lack depth and will continue to do so.

Shirai has to be counting the days left on her contract. If what knsffa just said above is true (about KLR and Dakota getting the call up) Leaving Io as the sole remaining woman from Black an Gold...then quite frankly holy shit f*** this company Io get the f*** outta there. The levels of bullshittery surrounding Io getting or not getting the call up which keeps ending up with her NOT moving up is absoloutley f***ing staggeringly stupid.

So the they designated her and Roddy as the 2 vets...even though neither works regularly, which means they don't value vets.

I'm taking the Dakota thing as BS cause as mistery said, no one is reporting it. I will ask the comment person for a source out of curiosity and expect to hear Twitter or Facebook. It could mean Kacy or Io is Katana. But Katana could be a name for someone not on television yet. I could see Kacy getting to use her real name per NBC/Ninja Warrior relationship. But the last name I could see too being too 'difficult to spell' in Vince's eyes for their audience. I'll be curious what happens to Kayden Carter. Time will tell what awaits Dakota next in 2.0; Wendy team Part II or Level Up vet? I don't like to re-post stuff said in a random comment on a comment section unless sites actually start reporting it.

Hey, give them credit, Roddy is in the vet role…in NXT UK where there are already a lot of vets…

I mean just because Kacy might be getting a new name doesn't mean she is getting called up. Also I'm pretty sure what's going to happen with Wendy Choo is she'll lose to Mandy, and then go back to tagging with Dakota to go after the tag titles.
