Leati Joseph Anoa'I, Windham Lawrence Rotunda, Claudio Castagnoli, April Jeanette Mendez. Those names doesn’t make much of a sense do they? Well Roman Reigns, Bray Wyatt, Cesaro and AJ Lee are sure to ring some bells. A number of alter egos are a natural thing that comes along with the profession Wrestling career and we’ve been admiring most of the WWE superstars for the in ring name that they are assigned with.However, that ain’t permanent either.

So let’s take the ride back and dig through the history to take out some great name changes.

#1 Glenn Jacobs (Angus King to Christmas Creature to Dr. Isaac Yankem to Kane)

Being the monstrous figure he is, Kane had some interesting names back in his early days. The Yankem character was the one which the WWE gave him as he was portrayed as a monster that Jerry the Lawyer hired to dispatch Bret Hart.

Before that Kane was the Christmas Creature and Angus King at Smoky Mountain Wrestling which were his initial attempts to be a professional Wrestler.

Once is dropped the Yankem character and started to come out as Kane, he quickly became a hit among the fans with his teaming up and feuds with Undertaker. And thats how a Christmas creature became an authority figure.
