In OVW, DCW, and briefly in FCW Brian Jossie used his real name

His Wikipedia only had his Abraham Washington names listed, but long before he was known as Abraham Washington, Brian Jossie wrestled as Brian Jossie. He used this name in DCW, OVW, even when he first debuted for the FCW, he used the Brian Jossie name (before the presidential gimmick). He worked match against Taylor Rotunda on February 5, 2009, lost and was using the Brian Jossie name. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.122.49.199 (talk) 18:32, 1 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Abraham Obama Washington / Abraham Saddam Washington ring names? Or nick names?

Would Abraham Obama Washington and Abraham Saddam Washington be considered separate ring names, or simply nick names Brian Jossie has used? On the FCW roster page, he was only called Abraham Washington and Brian Jossie. On occasion, he would announce himself as Abraham Obama Washington and Abraham Saddam Washington, using Obama and Saddam as his middle name while doing his presidential gimmick. But that was never his official ring name. It was just a joke, based on Barack Obama's middle name, and how he shares the same middle name as Saddam Hussein. His ring name was just Abraham Washington. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.122.49.199 (talk • contribs) 21:58, 1 July 2009

Brian Jossie → Abraham Washington – Per WP:COMMONNAME. I know that he was also A.W. for a short time, but that was just a shortening of the Abraham Washington name. GeicoHen (talk)16:28, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I don't know. I support it, because he was in WWE TV as Abraham. --HHH Pedrigree (talk) 23:07, 8 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Support Only real exposure as this. All his lesser-known names are variants on the same. InedibleHulk (talk) 11:54, 9 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I thought Abraham Washington was just a Fallout 3 character. (He doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere on Wikipedia, though.) --BDD (talk) 21:33, 16 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
