I absolutely agree. I'm just spitballing scenarios where Rey can still not be booked as I believe he's going to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members PunkStep Posted November 27, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted November 27, 2018 My god the first thing they need to do is change his god awful name. Fucking Walter, like a Beano character, and not even a good one. This will be interesting - given his style - to see what else he can offer WWE.

My first thought is the chunky lad from the micro machines game boy game. He was rubbish. So yeah, they'll probably change it to CHUNK or something Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking Walter, like a Beano character, and not even a good one. This will be interesting - given his style - to see what else he can offer WWE. Recently, I was chatting with a friend about the name "Walter" and how it doesn't sound cool or heroic or threatening at all (it's the name of one of the main protagonists, The Man In Black, in Stephen King's The Dark Tower series). He made a very good point: it sounds crap to British people because of The Beano and Walter the Softy, whereas to Americans, it doesn't have said connotations, so maybe to them it sounds fine. To the Germans (of which I believe the man in question is one), it's a perfectly cromulent name - and, with German pronunciation, "Vallter", it might sound a bit better to us.

Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted November 27, 2018 Paid Members Share Posted November 27, 2018 More than happy for him to be called Walter. I’m a big fan of his. I think the name works because you expect him to be a useless lump, then you see him and he’s a bloody beast. Saying that, I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s repackaged as Herman Schmitt.

Keith Houchen Posted November 27, 2018 Share Posted November 27, 2018 If Walter isn't a fanny name, why didn't Bruce Willis stick with it? I'm hoping Vince goes for the Frozen Nazi gimmick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
