The name Marquis Cor Von is not much better then Kenny Dykstra. WWE may not call him Monty Brown but I will still call him that. I just like the sound of it better then that name. It would never win a gooker but I put bad name changes as an honorable mention in the halls of gookerdom.

I don't know why, but for some reason I actually think it fits the guy. When he says it, it kind of fits his way of speaking. He kept the Alpha Male part, which is far more important to me.

I've decided I'm gonna keep pronouncing Marquis as "Mar-kee" and hope he one day comes down to the ring dressed as a French revolutionary general.

Monty is an old man name, I can see why they changed it.

He did the Pounce. I don't care if they call him 'Biggy MacTrunkTrunks', I'm happy.

Biggy MacTrunkTrunks
Someday I will play one of these old Smackdown games again and make Biggy MacTrunkTrunks. He will win many matches.

At least he still does the Pounce, even though Tazz has no idea what it is. Stupid Tazz.

Whenever I watch any match from now on, I'm going to refer to the bigger of the two men (Even if they're both cruiserweights) as Biggy Mactrunktrunks.
I don't think the name change is the end of the world, it just kinda ensures when you google him you don't hit loads of TNA sites and open a new world to a lot of marks. Why is the pounce good?

The pounce is a linebacker tackle from a 275lb man. Some people say it looks weak, I say baloney.

It would never win a gooker but I put bad name changes as an honorable mention in the halls of gookerdom. So the writers open up a baby book and an encyclopedia when they name these wrestlers. Oh, and they also drink HEAVILY, apparently. I was thinking they'd go with Monty Perry (Refrigerator Perry?) but they just went outside of the box. And whenever my cat goes outside of the box, I smack him in the side with a rolled up newspaper. *Rolling up newspaper* Come here, WWE Creative....

Back in the early 80's, there was a video game character called Monty Mole. They could have called him Monty the Alpha Mole, so count your blessings

Maybe they didn't wanto to use "Monty" because they'd confuse him with Montel Vontavius Porter.

Well, his real name is "Montaque", so "Marquis" isn't that far off, IMO
