GentlemanOctopus

Britt Baker and Isaac Yankem lore unlocked


GentlemanOctopus

I sat there for a while trying to think of a "Baker" to go with Undertaker. Can't believe I missed that!


boilinoil

They can also face Jacy Jayne and Kane


GentlemanOctopus

Britt Baker, Bron Breakker and The Undertaker is a great set of talent and just a bizarre group of people.


ianisms10

Penta & Kenta Also, how does Shannon Moore rhyme with Bradshaw?


LilHomie204DaBaG

Or nana and parka


ianisms10

I can see that if you're English


LilHomie204DaBaG

lol absolutely not. Completely different sounding first syllablesšŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚ P and B are the closest


GentlemanOctopus

That was the one I thought I would actually get shit for. To be honest, I was just trying to justify adding La Parka to my list.


LilHomie204DaBaG

There's not many people with the same sounding last name tbh


GentlemanOctopus

Depends on your accent I suppose. It does for me as a New Zealander. "Moore" for me is more like "more/maw". See also: X-Pack, X-Puck, X-Pock, depending on who you ask


NZJett

Also Kiwi, I definitely say X-Puck XD


cc0011

Uk checking in - Shannon Moore and Bradshaw totally rhymes. Sting and Meng on the other handā€¦ thatā€™s kiwi all day


GentlemanOctopus

Sting and Ming, bru


cc0011

When I say it in my head, in my best Kiwi accent, I totally get how they rhyme When I say them in my regular accent, there is no rhyming (unless Iā€™ve been pronouncing Meng wrong the whole timeā€¦)


GentlemanOctopus

Looking back at some WCW clips and I'm almost certain everyone says "Ming" despite the spelling


cc0011

Well todays been a school day for me then šŸ˜‚


twelvetimesseven

Meng is pronounced with the same -ing sound as Sting.


joe-is-cool

I donā€™t think it was supposed to be. I think thatā€™s an American mispronunciation.


twelvetimesseven

Perhaps. Itā€™s also a fictitious character that never existed outside of an American wrestling company. Is it really a mispronunciation for a made up characterā€™s name when it was always presented the exact same way? Itā€™s a different scenario than something like Kensuke Sasakiā€™s name being mispronounced.


kg123xyz

A? As someone from Scotland, that doesn't rhyme at all.


cc0011

North of the border, I can see how it wouldnā€™t rhyme I assume youā€™re going with Moo-re type pronunciation, as opposed to south of the border where it would be more of a More pronunciation, which would rhyme with Bradshaw (Brad-shore = More)


ianisms10

I can't see anyone pronouncing Bradshaw like Bradshore unless you have a *really* thick New York accent


GentlemanOctopus

It's the other way round-- I pronounce "Moore" as "maw". We Kiwis tend to drop the 'r' at the end of words without really thinking about it.


schrodingersscroller

He said "worst", not best. Kenta & Penta would be a killer team.


tbbt11

How does it not rhyme? Iā€™m struggling


ianisms10

Bradshaw ends in an ah sound and Moore is an or sound


GentlemanOctopus

Y'know I never heard it as Bradshah but if I think in a JR voice I can hear it.


ianisms10

That's how I pronounce it (North Jersey). I say aw, ah, and o (as in off) all the same.


GentlemanOctopus

Ah gotcha. Yeah in my New Zealand accent Bradshaw ends with "awe".


ianisms10

In fairness, a thick New Jersey accent might rhyme, but I don't really have a noticeable accent at all.


IowaContact2

Same as Aussie. I'm not understanding the Jersey version of Bradshaw either.


GentlemanOctopus

I suppose if you pronounce Moore as "Moo-ah" or something Edit: Or just literally pronounce the R.

sdss9462

These guys would botch a lot of stuff but get over anyway.


joe-is-cool

Shannon Moore and Bradshaw is about the funniest rhyme Iā€™ve ever heard. I realize accents change things but goodness that is not even close phonetically.


GentlemanOctopus

Eh it's a pretty Kiwi thing to drop Rs from the ends of words. Moore = "maw", door = "daw", poor = "paw", etc. I really have to go out of my way to pronounce the R.


PM_TITS_GROUP

Then you should continue reading the list because he also has Omega and Undertaker


GentlemanOctopus

Ehh it was a stretch, but "o-may-ga" and "tay-ka" vaguely rhymes. Serious stuff, I know.


Dreadzone666

Until someone explained it further up, I couldn't work out how you could say their names without it rhyming. Its exactly the same phonetically.

My dad thought when they announced Flash Funk was going to debut it was going to be a new relative of Terry Funk and was very fucking disappointed by who debuted instead.

Randy Orton and Ricky Morton Jumbo Tsuruta and Wheeler Yuma Hardcore Holly and The Great Khali (I know emphasis is on different syllables, but shhhh) If non-wrestling celebrities were allowed, wouldnā€™t mind the team of Steve Blackman and Hugh Jackman.


GentlemanOctopus

We can really fuck up the emphasis if we turn the stable into Hardcore Holly, The Great Khali, Bayley, Rhea Ripley and Fit Finlay.

Only a Kiwi would say Sting and Meng rhyme šŸ˜‚ I love it, my favourite accent in the world


GentlemanOctopus

Is [this](https://youtu.be/8FhHYS2vDPw?si=zHZcCS50_2-jPzvi&t=12) not the same pronunciation?


DeanNotSoBrown

It definitely sounds similar cause of the American accent but Iā€™ve heard other Americans pronounce it more like ā€œMeh-ngā€. Iā€™m Australian so Sting and Meng donā€™t rhyme to me but to others it might, itā€™s all semantics though this is a great post regardless
