As before we have talked about your powers and abilities if we did have special abilities, but now it's time to pick your superhero, villain, or neutral names. Therefore,

"What would be your superhero, villain, or neutral name?"

Bonus Question: Based on your abilities from the last topic, what would your associated name be? (If you didn't answer the question last topic you can make up a name of course.)

I tend to be of the school of thought that, if you're going to be a truly effective villain, you shouldn't be wearing overly-elaborate costumes or calling yourself ridiculous names. The best villain is the one standing right next to you and you never even know it.

That being said, my character back when I played Marvel Superheroes RPG was "Shayde", partly because it was the 90s and everything was cooler when spelled with Ys instead of I and Zs instead of S, and partly because I stole the name from a Doctor Who comic.

I am very happy that the Universal championship is off Brock Lesnar. Granted it's now on Roman Reigns, but it is a definite improvement over the creep that is Lesnar. Now that steroided out hurt machime can freely go back to UFC and injure as many people as Dana White is willing to let him.

All things considered, I'd almost say the belt was better off on a champion who almost never defended it than it is on a champion who's going to defend it constantly in spite of absolutely no one wanting him to have it.

Because now they're just going to keep feeding people like Finn and Braun and whoever else they see as top-level talent to Roman on a regular basis, and Roman is either going to beat them all or the matches are going to end with screwy finishes because the Shield will keep interfering. At least when Brock had the belt it was easier to just forget about it and pretend the IC title was basically the main title of the fed.

(Which is also a nice bonus, because the Universal title has a stupid name, and looks like it's made of jam, so I like being able to pretend it doesn't exist.)

The only positive thing that might come of this is the rumors that with Bray Wyatt losing his tag-team partner and Erick Rowan getting hurt at the PPV (and losing the tag titles on SmackDown), they might have Braun recruit Bray and Harper to counter-balance the Shield.

The problem, of course, is that the WWE is still blindly determined to push Roman as a face in spite of all evidence of how terrible an idea that is, so if they do reunite the Wyatt family as a counter, they'll just push them as heels and absolutely kill Braun's momentum, so that's also a bad idea.

Then again, considering they'll still going with the Becky-as-hell push in spite of pretty much everyone in the arena clearly being pro-Becky and anti-Charlotte, pushing the right people in the wrong way is basically their standard MO these days.
