Terrible Wrestling Names of Late

WWE has been coming up with some pretty horrible fucking names for their new wrestlers. Like, really really bad names, and frankly, I do not understand why they do this sort of shit. Before they would just add extra letters to people's names (RhYno, TazZ), now they're just coming up with horrible names all together.

Take Jack Swagger for instance. How can I take a guy seriously whose last name is apparently "Swagger," who is also not a pirate, and is not a black rapper. It's just a terrible name for someone who you want to push to the main event. It's like the name itself is trying too hard to be cool. The guy's real name is Jake Hager, which in my opinion is a perfectly acceptable name for a professional wrestler. But no, they call him Jack Swagger instead.

And then there's "Sheamus," which is just about the least intimidating Irish name I've ever heard. I'm not saying it's a completely awful name like Jack Swagger, but they certainly could've done better than Sheamus.

R-Truth. The guy's name is RON KILLINGS! Just about the greatest God given professional wrestling name you could ever possibly ask for, and they decide to take away the dude's last name all together and call him R-Truth instead. How in the fuck is "R-Truth" better than Ron "The Truth" Killings?! Fuck! He'd probably be a main event by now if they had called him Ron Killings instead of R-Truth!

Dolph Ziggler is a pretty horrendous name for a wrestler. How can a guy with the last name "Ziggler" ever headline a WrestleMania? It's just ridiculous. And the dude's real name is "Nick Nemeth;" not a GREAT wrestling name, but definitely a million times better than Dolph Ziggler. Hell, Anything Ziggler! Dolph isn't even that terrible of a first name for a wrestler, but Ziggler?! It sounds like that computer game where you make the worm eat through the dirt without hitting any walls.

And flipping Bryan Danielson's name into Daniel Bryan... I just don't even know where to go with that. What a pointless exercise in pointless exercises, changing a guy's last name with his first name because... why? What sense does that make? None. That's what sense it makes.

Enough with the terrible names already, WWE, for fuck's sake.
