10 MORE Of The Best Nicknames In Modern Wrestling

1. Too Many To Pick - Giulia

Drew McIntyre

To cut off your train of thought - no, "Too Many To Pick" isn't an especially esoteric epithet for Giulia. Instead, it's a reminder that Japan's fastest-rising star has been blessed with some brilliantly bizarre nicknames over the course of her six-year career.

"Beautiful Madness", "Dangerous Queen" and "Indomitable Italian Woman" are just a handful of the names Giulia's gone by in the past, but for this writer's money nothing tops the following trio:

1) "The Gladiator of Glorias" - When it comes to this particular Gloria, Laura Branigan was wrong - everyone does want her, and everybody's calling.

2) "Second Generation Hot Topic Woman" - Because she'll kick your ass, then go out shopping for black nail polish alongside her mother.

3) "Dark Dormitory Manager" - You could spend all day discussing why "Dark Dormitory Manager" is such an incredible nickname, but it's best to follow Stephen Fry's advice for enjoying the works of P.G. Wodehouse: 'You don't analyse such sunlit perfection, you just bask in its warmth and splendour.'

Giulia's nicknames may be audaciously daft, but they put a smile on people's faces. And, as her likely destination for 2024 often reminds us, that's what wrestling is all about.
