10 wrestlers who had awful names before reaching WWE

#2 Monster Eiffel Tower - Andre the Giant

Andre the Giant didn't always have quite an impressive moniker

How do you follow Heavy Metal Jesus? Monster Eiffel Tower, of course!

Andre Rene Rousimoff is the most famous French wrestler of all time, probably the most famous giant of all time, and even one of the most famous wrestlers of all time - but he was once known as Monster Eiffel Tower. Why? Well, he's a giant French wrestler.

Thankfully, Andre got to just be Andre the Giant. Monster Eiffel Tower would have definitely still stood out from a crowd, but a more subtle name was definitely the right way to go.
