Why did Johnny Nitro change his name?

[Pinnacle Charisma]

See Title dont really watch wwe or ecw much anymore but every now and then again i flick and noticed johnny nitros name was morrison name now. Why??

[Funky Fly]

They wanted to make him less cartoony, so they changed his name to Morrison because of his slight resemblance to Doors frontman Jim Morrison.

Did they make him get all those drugs to make him seem like Jim Morrison too?

[Funky Fly]

Yeah, they did.

I love you, Rob.

Is that the truth Funky Fly because that seems like a retarted reason to change a name?

But then again with wwe this days i have no idea

It's because you touch yourself at night.

It is a retarded reason, though I don't know if it's legit.

They wanted to change him because they wanted him as ECW top guy, but as Johnny Nitro he was a Raw jabroni, so voila.

I just thought it was funny how he chaged his last name to Morrison saying it was his real name, but Hennigen (I don't know how it's spelt) was used for a while until he changed it to Nitro when he was hanging around Bischoff.

He's not Johnny Spade anymore?

[Dorkchop]

He should change his last name every 1.5 years

[Mr. JL]

I wonder what kind of shape he'll be in when he returns... now that he will no longer be ON DRUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Mr. JL]

I'm thinking it'll bring about another name change, Johnny Outtashape.

[Skippord]
