Favourite Name Change
What is your favourite name change for a wrestler (not gimmick change, because WWE, WCW, et al would have us believe that the same person playing two different gimmicks are in fact two different people. Take Jamal and Umaga for example. Nobody has ever acknowledged that Umaga is played by the same person as Jamal was).

What I mean is the same person, yet he announces his name has changed. Some are more subtle and change over time, like hunter Hearst Helmsley changed to Triple H. Some are more in your face and obvious.

Heyman (To Lesnar): And with this best...with this A-Train on your side...

Albert: What did you say?

Heyman: I'm sorry, did you not like it?

Albert: I like it. From now on...I'm A-Train (thumps chest).

So, give some examples. What did you like, or what made you laugh?

And yes, before you ask, I am bored. bored so badly that I make a thread like this.

I actually remember the promo where the A-Train name came about. It was Heyman, Big Show and Albert in the locker room being prepared for their single matches that night. Heyman was talking to Big Show telling hime how he's 7 ft tall and 500 lbs, then Heyman starts talking to Albert and says something like ' you are like a train... aaaaa trrraaaiiinn'. Then Albert goes ' Yeah, I am A-TRAIN'. Heyman tells Big Show who he'll be facing that night, and turns round to Albert and refers to him as A-Train and tells him who he is wrestling.

Ooooh....I've got one.

I remember watching TNA, after Swinger and Diamond has split up (this was back in the days of their 4 sided ring) Simon Diamond had a backstage interview with Borash (?) and said he's changing his name to reflect his irish roots. "Irish" Pat Kenney

Oh, and Kip James!!!

Yeah, I remember a match where he was called "Maximillion Moves" by the ring announcer, yet the onscreen graphics read "Maximus Moon". Ah, the WWF of 1992. Great stuff.

These are a little predictable from me, but I'm going to mention them:

Val Venis to Sean Morley to Chief Morley: I never appreciated him at the time as I do now, but it was really a stroke of genius to have Venis renounce his porn star ways and go by his birthname when he wanted to become serious. If I remember, Sean Morley was actually a babyface (I think his first night as Chief of Staff teased a little tension between him and Bischoff), but then he became "Chief", like Booker became "King", and started to abuse his power. Good times.

Doug Basham to Machine to "The Machine" Doug Basham: When he first appeared in OVW, Doug Basham was one of Jim Cornette and Danny Davis' top faces. He then disappeared, and a masked figure showed up. Machine was vicious, and became one of the the biggest heels OVW ever had. He was then revealed to be Doug Basham, but I believe he kept "The Machine" moniker whilst he remained a heel, just to keep his heat flowing.

Steven Regal to William Regal: I know a lot of people didn't like this when it happened, but I was introduced to William first, so I favour his second name. It just sounds more British than "Steven".

They changed it to William because they had Steve Austin, Steve Blackman and Steven Richards all working there at the time.

Same thing with Lance Cade becoming Garrison Cade due to Lance Storm being around and Mickie Jay becoming Mick Henson to avoid confusion with Mickie James.

I'm surprised that Chris Masters was given that name, considering the fact that Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit and Christian were all on the roster at the time.
