TJ Perkins Gets New Ring Name

TJ Perkins burst onto the WWE scene when he won the Cruiserweight Classic and became the first WWE Cruiserweight Champion. After a few months as champion, he eventually lost the title. Over the past few months, he has done nothing noteworthy on RAW or 205 Live until his recent heel turn.

It appears as if WWE is going all in for the re-branding of Perkins moving forward.

It looks like TJ Perkins has a new ring name. You might have noticed that the announcers have stopped calling him TJ Perkins and are only referring to him as: ‘TJP’.

On WWE.com, it correlates with the announcers change as he is only listed as ‘TJP’ with no mention of his full-name on his profile:

Our take – If I had to guess, Vince McMahon wants to own his name and made the switch over to TJP. Regardless, I have been enjoying his run as a heel and am looking forward to what him and Neville do next.

Let us know what you think of the switch in the comment section below.
