Seth Rollins and Asuka are two of the biggest stars in WWE at the moment

According to a recent WWE advertisement for a live event in Atlantic City posted on HardRock.com, Seth Rollins and Asuka have seemingly undergone some name changes. The website has featured the visionary under the name "Seth 'Franklin' Rollins" instead of his usual moniker of "Freakin", while the Empress of Tomorrow has been referred to as "Ashule".

The aforementioned name changes are clearly typos by those advertising the show as it is highly unlikely that two of WWE's top stars would undergo such name changes without any references made on any televised shows.

You can view the 'name changes' in the screenshot below.

Unlike Seth Rollins and Asuka there have been other noticeable name changes in WWE

It is common for WWE to often change or shorten the names of its Superstars. Shortly after Matt Riddle's call-up to the main roster, his name was reduced to just "Riddle" and he has been using it ever since.

The same was the case with Austin Theory, who had used that name for a while before recently shortening his name to just Theory.

While Edge was a despised villain for the majority of his first run with WWE, Zain loved his commitment to the character. He admired his ability to narrate a compelling story with his subtle moves and actions inside the ring. He believes no one in the business has come close to the Hall of Famer in terms of staying true to their on-screen gimmick.

If Zain were to book an eye-catching WWE angle, he would pit Cody Rhodes against CM Punk. Zain would have Rhodes highlight Punk’s hypocrisy in coming back to the global juggernaut. Their interaction would lead to Punk turning heel and engaging in a high-profile match with The American Nightmare at a Big Four Premium Live Event.

When not writing, Zain loves to read philosophy, play chess, where he has represented his country at the national level.
