ninevisions Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 got this from Wiki  "On August 30, 2011, it was announced that Prudius would be making his first post-WWE appearance on September 3, working for the Japanese promotion Inoki Genome Federation (IGF) under his new ring name Alexander Kozlov."  now he's clearly nicked that name from Alex Kozlov (now Peter Orlov in FCW), so i wonder if this comes back to bite him...

AfRo Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 now he's clearly nicked that name from Alex Kozlov (now Peter Orlov in FCW), so i wonder if this comes back to bite him... Â I wouldn't say that. Alexander is simply what his realname translates to (and is also one of the most stereotypical russian names) while not using the name Kozlov, which he got known as, would be rather stupid. Â Anyway, as mentioned above, wiki is as crap as a source for wrestling news can be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwo Posted September 2, 2011 Share Posted September 2, 2011 If it is true that he has been booked for IGF as Alexander Kozlov, as far as we know it could be the promotion who decided to name him that rather than Kozlov himself. It could be possible that neither Vlad or Inoki have ever heard of Alex Kozlov. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted September 3, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted September 3, 2011 Harry Smith and Bobby Lashley have the potential to be a real force in the "Most Boring Tag Team" thread. Expect that thread to get bumped after this show takes place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators PowerButchi Posted September 3, 2011 Moderators Share Posted September 3, 2011 For Fujinami's 40th they should have Scott Steiner chuck him about like a 3 year old like he did at Wrestlewar '92. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kralcdxela Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Great, maybe he'll return a much better wrestler after going to Japan. Â What's with all the Harry Smith bashing, he's a great wrestler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Williams Posted September 3, 2011 Share Posted September 3, 2011 Kozlov is indeed booked for the IGF show. Here's the card:Â Â Â And as far as Alex Koslov is concerned, Koslov used to wrestle for the Inoki Dojo in the States so he's no stranger to Inoki. Â That was the other Alex Koslov, who is now FCW's Peter Orlov Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
