You have to set the right mood, try not to overthink things, maybe have a couple of drinks, and then, someone is going to get screwed. 2 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorman Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Ludvig Borga could have been Finnish Tony. I think Authors of Pain came from the James Bond movie Spectre. Christoph Waltz's villain told Bond, "I'm the author of all your pain." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bronze Babyshoes I legit just tried to write "Braun Strowman" and this is what my phone autocorrects to, every time. I have to take extra effort now to write the name out and tell autocorrect to NOT change it. Most of the time, I don't even bother. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cristobal Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Norway Ivar and Denmark Erik are better names than The Viking Experience. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ReiseReise Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 First of all, @Cristobal easily won DVDR board 2019 with this thread alone. Second of all I remember a discussion about the Viking wedding a few months back. The sensitivity of the topic for some board members was brought up. Now I'm totally afraid WWE is going to turn this into something very insensitive... I'm 100% terrified they'll talk shit aka "raising against oppression" or "getting rid of their slave names" or something equally horrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt it turns into something like what you're describing, but it reminds me of a shitpost I saw on Reddit where someone suggested that Dijakovic should have a white nationalist gimmick.
