A Number Of NXT Superstars Have Been Rebranded With New Names

As has so often become the case, WWE has changed the names of a number of NXT Superstars and you can find out who has been rebranded (including a former IMPACT Wrestling star) after the jump. Take a look!

Saturday's NXT TakeOver show was another success and while the developmental brand may not be flying as high as it once was (it's hard to imagine that 2015 era ever being replicated), Triple H remains hard at work creating new Superstars for WWE.

Now, word has got out that a number of wrestlers have been rebranded. Here are the changes which have been made:

- Adrian Jaoude is now known as Arturo Ruas
- Eric Bugenhagen is now known as Rik Bugez
- Jessie Elaban is now known as Jessie Kamea
- Luke Menzies is now known as Ridge Holland
- Trevor Lee is now known as Cameron Grimes

The most noteworthy alteration here is of course Trevor Lee's transformation into Cameron Grimes as he's well-known from his time in IMPACT Wrestling. As for "Rik Bugez," he's reportedly getting an entirely new look to go with this name.

Now, we'll just have to wait and see who manages to keep more than one name when they hit the main roster down the line.
