Imagine, you're two power houses and pretty popular and you have a real gimmick / character and a great name "War Raiders"... then you get pulled into Vince's office and he tells you that you are being called up to RAW and deep inside you're super happy and know you're finally going to be making some real money BUT Vince goes "We're changing your names, your Ivar you're now Erik, and you are now called "THE VIKING EXPERIENCE"
imagine sitting in that room silent for a few seconds, and just accepting a change like that. What the fuck was WWE thinking with this?
>Ivar I am still pissed that they gave one of them a norwegian name that americans can’t say right. Hearing my dads name mispronounced every monday is not something i look forward to
Levi Lopez
As long as they aren't booked like the cool and awesome sounding "The Ascensions", they'' do great. Some of you motherfuckers are crying over nothing...
Well i'm not a mark for myself so as long as the money is getting deposited into my bank account every payday, I don't give a shit
Easton Ortiz
Welp, hope they are getting good paychecks for this BS.
Ethan Robinson
nigga you'd really let somebody change your god damn name for money? Jesus, I get money is nice and all but you shouldn't sell your integrity, especially if you take the art form/show seriously.
but then again I guess you can always argue, Vince knows what's best he's been doing it longer than anybody and he still participates/performs/writes/talks/promos/announces/etc . The man knows how to do everything and has done it since it's peak.

>especially if you take the art form/show seriously
Someone please post a gif or webm, anyone will do
Isaac Morales
>Vince actually wanted to call them The Berserkers
lmao
Brayden Martinez
Fuck making money. Fuck dimes. It's always been about superstardom. Even The Rock would agree.
Jason Johnson
>especially if you take the art form/show seriously.
I don't really understand what you guys are trying to say, you're obviously trolling. But it makes you both look really ignorant and also kind of shows you don't have any hobbies or skills you are proud of.
Adrian Johnson
>Wrestling as a hobby
Unless you actually getting in a ring and pretend fight, it's cringe as fuck and you should kill yourself for having it as a """""hobby"""""
Luke Adams
So they basically turned these niggas into the Highlanders, lmao

Carson Clark
I hope Sarah Logan comes out with them next week, renamed Helga or something, and Ruby can be the goblin they're chasing thru the woods to kill.
Matthew Bailey
They already changed their name to join NXT ya ignant simp
Cooper Wright
This is the second time you've gotten mad because you don't know what the word hobby means. Go look it up.
Joshua Long
I say "cool whatever, thanks for the money" because I'm not a mark and "Ivar" isn't the name on my checks.
Michael Flores
absolute worst case scenario you go in the "PUSH XXXXXX" box of wrestlers 'Vince fucked up', and when you leave the company you make 'big bux' workin' bouts on the 'indies' or lesser pro's.

>I don't think there's one guy on this roster who wouldn't want to have my level of success in the ring. If there is, we really ought to try to convince him to do something else for a living, because he's never going to make it. If you're not in WWE to become the champion and succeed, then you're in the wrong business. - Stone Cold
