Wrestlers have some of the funniest names, yeah? i mean we all know The Rock, The Undertaker, Triple H and Hulk Hogan, but this world has also given us Pegasus Kid, Lash LeRoux, Pez Whatley, SCotty 2 Hotty and of course Dolph Ziggler.

But we thought you might be able to do even better and so we came up with #MyWrestlerNameWouldBe and you did the rest…

[The Story So Far: Every Wednesday at 12 noon South African time [6am EDT] an inspired and growing number of brilliant, creative and absolutely fun people from all around the world take part in what is called a Hashtag game. @AFrikkinHashtag [say it out loud] is South Africa’s #1 Hashtag game and is always a lot of fun. The F.L.O.P. [or Fish List Of Prizeworthyness] is the collection of some of the best tweets from each week’s game and is what all seriously comedic Hashtaggers aspire to…]

With @WTFKlorine as my co-host [which, let’s be honest, is a pretty creative wrestler type name already] we set out to see just how popular this might be.

We sent out an invitation:

Hashtag game invite

And then we got the ball rolling:

i decided to give one or two ideas of how this could work:

And of course it was another chance for me to rock my airport greeter:

And Canada was not far behind:

As well as News 12 from New Jersey:

But it was real life in-the-flesh wrestler Brimstone we were most excited about:

And we even had a singer, the talented Djoir Jordan who used her song name as her wrestling name:

But of course we know what you came here for – everyone is throwing themselves at the canvas to see if they made it on to this week’s F.L.O.P. and these are the ones who did.

FISH LIST OF PRIZEWORTHYNESS
