But NEVER Johnson.

Also, just finding this out for the first time... his real name is Bill Saluga.

I genuinely thought Raymond Johnson was his real name and he built a bit around that, not that it was a 100% invented character/name. :negative:

I was five years old and had a low-budget VHS about dinosaurs and the host was Ray J Johnson and he did his whole schtick for some reason.

That's how I learned about Ray J J.


Edit: The first and only time in history z-lister Ray Johnson gets a page snipe, and ityool 2024 no less. No regrets.

I got this title for the dumbest fucking possible take on sea shanties. Specifically, I derailed the meme thread because sailors in the 18th century weren't woke enough for me, and you shouldn't sing sea shanties. In fact, don't have any fun ever.

Vaudeville rivals wrestling for name changes.

For example: Nathaniel Birnbaum wanted more than anything to be in vaudeville, but by his own admission, until he met his second wife he never really had a good act, so every time his act bombed he had to change his name so he wouldn't be associated with the bomb. In addition, some acts in vaudeville were better known for their names than their performers, and when the members of an act changed they'd still keep the original names to not have to build up an audience again, and so in his autobiographies he claimed he performed as:

Willy Delight
Captain Betts of Captain Betts And His Amazing Seal
Buddy Links
Smiling Frankie Davis
Jackson in “Jackson and Malone"
Harris in “Harris and Dunlop"
Jose in “Jose and Dolores" (His then wife was Hermosa Jose nee Hannah Seigel)
and first Brown and then Williams of “Brown and Williams.”

He was performing as Burns in "Burns and Lorraine" when in 1923 he met a singer/dancer from "The Four Colleens" who was looking for a new stage partner, and he wrote their first skit together. Together they formed an act using her real name - Gracie Allen - and the first stage name he had and which he kept returning to - George Burns.

There's a ten minute bit he did on Art of Wrestling where it's just him looking up dumb wrestling names and their associated gimmicks he came up with. He's insanely creative.
