9 Wrestlers Who Had Their Names Shortened on the Main Roster

#5 From Adrian Neville to Neville

Mighty Mouse himself, (Adrian) Neville.

After dropping his independent's name 'Pac' when he joined NXT, Neville was forced to make another name related sacrifice when he went to the main roster. In NXT, Neville was known as Adrian Neville, however, WWE just dropped the first name when he debuted on the main roster.

The former Cruiserweight Champion has had no explicit reason for changing his name, with reports saying that he just didn't like the 'Adrian' part of his name, and others saying that Vince didn't feel like his entire name was marketable enough. (a trend which we will see later on this list too)
