This just in: Bartel was to be renamed Marcel the Shell with Shoes On, but plans were abruptly dropped.

I wonder and dread what Ciampa's new name will be. Vince: "What is this name? Thomas-oh Cee-ampa? That name sucks. You're...you're Rick Johnson! Yeah. Rick Johnson. Heh-heh. Johnson." He gets the leftover old names and is now WALTER Gonzales

I'm curious when this shift happened because Austin Theory got called off pretty recently and kept the name which he had been using since the indies and Austin is his shoot first name and both of those seem to be sure things for name changes these days. I spoke too soon.

Honestly I feel like Gunther sounds 800,000 more times lamer than WALTER did when I first heard it because of that "th" in the middle. It makes it land a lot weaker. And that's if they can stick to one pronunciation of it. In this case it should be pronounced 'gun-ter' with the first part sounding like Suzuki-gun (so more of a 'goon' sound), the second part 'tah', and the h in the middle kept silent, but during one episode of NXT I heard it pronounced three different ways by three different people. No consistency is bad.

The way they're presenting Ciampa really feels like they have no plan for him and don't want to think of one, which is also probably why he was in NXT for like 7 years.

OH! So that's why I randomly heard the name Del Toro on commentary last night. I heard it and was so confused.

Cruz Del Toro sounds pretty cool, not going to lie, but I think it's only a matter of time before he becomes just Cruz, Del or Toro on the main roster at the whim of Vince.

I'd be more fine with it if they weren't trying to trademark the name of a Nazi general so it taints the whole thing but eh, different strokes. ![:P](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/tongue.png) I agree, like the hell is up with that? In my head it’s paying respect to Gunther from FRIENDS. In which case, it's weird they changed his buddy from Marcel.

Wasn't Del Rio "Alberto Banderas" at some point in developmental? I can see them wanting to use the last name again, especially since they opted to not use it.
