Franky Monet addresses complaints about her WWE NXT name

New WWE NXT star Franky Monet (formerly Taya Valkyrie) responded to criticism of her new name in a series of Tweets…

Hey guys, I LOVE MY NAME…..maybe since I picked it. Go figure! 💁🏼‍♀️ I could be called Sunshine Tuna and I would make it work!!! So take a breath, stop complaining and enjoy this evolution and ride with me. Thanks 🙏🏻 #FrankyMonet

Monet for the French artist, Franky because I’ve always loved unisex names and I think it’s super cute, spunky and different. https://t.co/kVYdtQ8Rxk

And for the record, nobody was going to name me Sunshine Tuna🤣 it was just an example. The name does not make the wrestler. One that’s powerful and strong helps of course but just know we all think long and hard about these things. I’m me, la WERA LOCA. Always, now , forever.
