AEW star Kyle Fletcher recently shared the story of how he got his “Protostar” nickname. During an interview on “Muscle Memory with MuscleManMalcolm,” Fletcher said the name was coined by Jimmy Jacobs and Angelico during an ROH taping.
“It was actually Jimmy Jacobs,” Fletcher said. “He was trying to think of a word for, like, what’s a name for a young star, or the early stages of a star, or whatever. Angelico got it out on his phone, and he just googled, like, the definition of it. He’s like, ‘Protostar, yeah, Protostar.’ I’m like, ‘Yeah, okay, I’ll say it in the promo, I guess.’ Hey, I’m stuck with it now.”
