:manny:

Can't be mad at a wrestler going after the payday if what they offered him was better than what he was getting elsewhere, or if that's just what he wanted.

Hopefully they don't try any racist fukk shyt with his booking (:mjlol: I know), and if they do, hopefully he rolls out for a better situation.

Idk probably he didn’t feel comfortable with WWE owning the name or something. Let’s be honest he was also killshot in LU he’s changed names before . I remember with Devitt all that outrage for nothing

There's a very stark difference between "Finn Balor" and "Isaiah Scott". One sounds at least vaguely interesting and culturally significant to ol' Fergal... the other sounds like the third man off the bench for a sub-.500-win intramural basketball team.
He's named like the illegitimate child the people at Dunder-Mifflin must never find out about.

Really making me believe that claim about Vince's "no more than 4 syllables for names" edict. (see also: Eric Bugenhagen, Jessie Elaban, etc.)
shyt's like they're picking names out of a hat.

Shoulda just used his real name, went by Steph Strickland, and been ok knowing they can't copyright his literal name. This company just always gotta fukk with things. If someone gave them a wheel, they'd tweak the shape just so they could claim full responsibility over what it has become in their hands. "WE made it, pal!"
