Brad Maddox, the former Monday night Raw GM and current WWE superstar that is barely used on television, is apparently going to have a new name: Joshua Kingsley. He debuted the name on Tuesday night prior to the Smackdown tapings in Portland. At a WWE live event a few months ago, Maddox wrestled in gear that made him look a lot like CM Punk. Apparently it didn't really mean anything, although it sure looked suspicious. https://twitter.com/TDHmoonwalker/status/630821398274023424 Two weeks ago, Maddox teamed up with Adam Rose at live events where they debuted a Fitness Freaks gimmick, calling themselves "Beefy Time" as a couple of guys that loved their own bodies, while mocking the fans that didn't look like them. Ever since Maddox was removed as the GM of Raw in early 2014, he hasn't had much of a role on WWE television. It seems like WWE likes him enough to keep him around, but they really don't seem to know what to do with him. Here's a photo from a fan at Tuesday's taping when Kingsley lost to Zack Ryder prior to Main Event and Smackdown being taped. Prior to the match, he did a promo saying his new name is Joshua Kingsley. https://twitter.com/calliopes/status/631301433631993856 Since it happened in a dark match, Joshua Kingsley isn't official yet, but it seems to be the new direction for Maddox.
