djchapsticks Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) The name isn't too bad. People said exact same thing about Ambrose, Rollins, Zayn and Cesaro if I rememberAmbrose isn't that bad a name to be honest, it's pretty standard fayre, much like Jon Moxley was. The rest, I'm not lovers of. Finn Balor is dreadful though. If they were so worried about naming rights, they could have just switched names up a little whilst retaining the rights like they did with Drew, Sheamus and Bryan. Something like Fergal Prince would have retained a semblance of his original name and not sounded so utterly ridiculous.

Ira Gaines Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 To be fair, people complaining about the likes of Rollins, Zayn, Cesaro and Ambrose's names are utter fannies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie_Murray7 Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 Cesaro and Ambrose are fine. The others mentioned are pretty pish. Anyway, I think Devitt may be my favourite current active wrestler. Was always a fan and that was boosted big time by his stint in ICW. He is fucking tremendous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waffelz Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 (edited) Apparently Steen is gonna be feuding with Zayn early doors, and the plan is for them to have a #1 contenders ladder match on December 11th. Source? Sounds like a made up story from an internet fan IMO. The name is fine, plus he chose it anyway.

JamieStevenson Posted October 4, 2014 Share Posted October 4, 2014 Next NXT live 'ppv' is set to build towards: Neville vs Zayn - NXT Title Hideo Itami/Finn Balor vs The Ascension The Vaudevillains vs The Lucha Dragons - NXT Tag Championships Charlotte vs Sasha Banks vs Bayley - NXT Divas Title Baron Corbin vs Bull Dempsey Sounds good. That Baron Corbin is a scary looking fella. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forehead7 Posted October 7, 2014 Share Posted October 7, 2014 Devitt's debut is set to be on the NXT televised on November 6th - I think it was - in the states. Aren't a lot of the names being changed now partly because WWE own the name, remember reading somewhere that Zayn changed from El Generico because WWE would then own the name and he wouldn't be able to go back to it if he was released? Yes, they basically don't want a situation like CM Punk where he owns the name beforehand, uses it in WWE then can leave with it and he's more famous now because of the WWE exposure. Obviously Indy guys want to be able to use their name if they leave WWE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingsTON Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 That'll be the main reason, but I think theres also an element of guarding against exposure for other promotions. If someone Googles the wrestlers old name, for example, it'll take you to website and Youtube vids for their old employers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stumigoo Posted October 12, 2014 Share Posted October 12, 2014 This Kenta/Hideo guy that the WWE were getting all excited about is pretty gash IMO. Didn't know much about him, but everyone seemed to be getting quite excited about his signing. I don't like his style and he has botched loads of stuff in the last couple of NXT shows. It might just be a poor start but I don't think I am going to take to him anytime soon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheGreenMonster Posted October 30, 2014 Share Posted October 30, 2014 Look like Steen's new name in NXT could possibly be "Kevin Owens", the WWE have recently applied to trademark the name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
