Well with Hennig he used names to honor his father and grandfather so it was still a way to have that connection and not be totally obvious.

All my point is names change all the time there. :manny:

True... and while I do like Rex Steiner a lot more, people also cringed at names like Daniel Bryan, Seth Rollins, Dean Ambrose, Finn Balor, Bray Wyatt... I remember all of those not getting the best reactions when they were revealed because people just wanted them to keep their old names. But as time went on, :yeshrug: :manny:

Well it's better to have some unique names rather than 5+ stars all with the name Matt.

Or guys with very similar names like Cage, Page, Adam and Brian.

They have the perfect name for him on a platter with Rex Steiner and they give him that bullshyt :mjlol:

I'll give them the benefit of the doubt and would think they asked him if he'd be willing to use the Steiner name if they owned the trademark for it. It's not his real name, so it's not like he'd have a claim over it if he left for AEW. They did the same thing to Cody with the "Rhodes" name. But I think they eventually gave up the "Rhodes" name back to Cody because there was a brewing backlash about it.

It was reported the "Rex" name was suggested. Who is to say they don't use it later? Yeah maybe Vince just doesn't want the connection to the Steiners just yet. :manny:

What's the obvious?

Having tons of guys that share names. Where's the originality?

Ethan Page, Adam Page, Adam Cole, Christian Cage, Brian Cage, Brian Pillman, Bryan Danielson, Christopher Daniels, Chris Jericho, Anthony Ogogo, Anthony Bowens, Matt Hardy, Matt Jackson, Matt Lee, Matt Sydal, Nick Comorotto, Nick Jackson, Shawn Dean, Shawn Spears, John Silver, Jon Moxley.

At least none of their women share names.

This needs to be in the stinks thread. :lolbron:

But no one cares about this other than weirdos like Vince and stooges like yourself.

Adam Page and Adam Cole will get bigger pops than 99% of people on WWE because they're over. No one gives a shyt that they share a name. These are the names they're known for in wrestling. So that's the names they'll use. It's as simple as that. And the overthinking, overbranding, overengineering shyt that stooges like you lap up is why the WWE product is so unwatchable.

one of the few times they should shorten his name to just Bronson, give him the character from the Tom Hardy movie and make this his theme

Look everyone! We got the guy who loves to mock mental illness.

If anyone on this board that knows someone with mental illness be rest assured this jack ass will love to mock you and them for going through or having that.

What a stand out person The Rainmaker is! Daps all around for this fine human being!
