Usernames that were stolen from you by homosexual professional wrestlers

Post by Rout »

I used "Hulk Hogan" a full decade before Terry Bollea. Sometime in the late 1960s on an internet forum about Woodstock.

I was the first person to use the nickname "The Nature Boy" back in 1938 due to my loves of rambling and birdwatching

My great great grandad was an funeral director in 1920s Manchester and used the nickname "Stone Cold". He would be spinning in his grave if he knew what happened to the name.

In the early 70's I had the moniker of Giant Haystacks on an early version of facebook.
Was rudely stolen from me by Luke McMasters.
I forgave him though. He was a cuddly giant of a man. And if I was to turn it would be for him.
Love you GH!

P.S I hear rumblings of 'there was no facebook back in the 70's.'
Behold!!!

I was also "The Rock" in the 1950s on a forum about Alcatraz prison for all current and former inmates.

One of the old timers in my local used to go by the name of 'hitman'. Says this started in 1967. When questioned about why this was, he always simply replies prosaically: 'because I killed cunts'. Was furious when Brett Hart stole it from him. Promised violent retribution. Not sure if he ever managed it, mind.

My username is a tribute to the King of England who sadly died in 1199. The great man also ruled as Duke of Normandy, Aquitaine and Gascony, Lord of Cyprus, and Count of Poitiers, Anjou, Maine, and Nantes, and was overlord of Brittany. It is in no way connected to the late and greatly missed Scottish wrestler.

Big fan of Occitan-speaking royalty?
