ZonaCidal Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Hypothetical scenario of importing real world wrestlers into the cverse. How would you rename them? Examples: Bret and Owen Hart - Bret Holt and Owen Holt Shawn Michaels - Shawn Richards Bob Backlund - Buddy Backlund Raven - KraVen LA Knight - NY Knight AJ Styles - KJ Styles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dorian Posted August 7 Share Posted August 7 Bo Dallas -> Bo Davis is about as close as I can get to it feeling similar. This way you can still do the whole Believe in Bo gimmick. Joe Hendry -> Jo Henry still gives off the same feeling and yes, I totally stole it from Bo because why not? Jo Henry still gives off the feel that you can literally use the theme song for Hendry. I would make him younger to see what it would be like for a young man to just suddenly find the correct gimmick for himself. And to top it all off, you could even put these two together as youngsters as BoJo! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExRufas2000 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 80s Mania Wrestling (a mobile semi-booker game) has a treasure trove of renamed wrestlers (and 80s - 90s celebs / movie characters). I'm sure you could find a list without downloading the app. Examples - Hulk Hogan = Duke Brogan, Ric Flair = Jet City Strutter (he has a daughter named Carolina Strutter in the Modern Mania sequel). Indiana Jones = Arizona Chance Darth Vader = Dark Invader Andre the Giant = Pierre the Enormous (there's also a face version of Andre based on his character in "The Princess Bride").
