WWE received a lot of criticism from fans on social media for renaming Dominik Dijakovic 'T-Bone', Dio Maddin 'Mace' and Shane Thorne 'Slapjack' on Monday's episode of Raw.

The laughs have kept on rolling in now T-Bone has revealed what Mia Yim will be called going forward on Twitter. She's been renamed 'Reckoning'. Meanwhile, Mercedes Martinez (who was the only member left without a flashy new moniker) has been renamed 'Retaliation'.

Some just aren't digging these new names.

They're hardly the most outlandish in pro wrestling history, to be fair. This is an industry that once called a guy 'The Gobbledy Gooker', for example, and there's a dude running around on SmackDown right now calling himself 'Shorty G'.

By comparison to those, 'Reckoning' isn't too bad.

Things might've been worse had WWE gone with their rumoured alternative for Yim. At one point, she was going to be called 'Shatter', which surely would've let to some hilarious jokes online with fans replacing that 'a' with an 'i'.

There you go then - all five of the main members have new names set. T-Bone, Mace, Slapjack, Reckoning and Retaliation.
