Hamlet works everyone into a shoot on a consistent basis.
Macbeth would play really cool on the ring

Wrestlers will speak it as it was written while in full costume. Name changes as well. If you were more popular by a certain name in some other promotion, too bad, you're Mercutio now. Are you a well known tag team elsewhere? Well, now you're Rosencrantz and Guildenstern.

CRINGE
>based big duncan grabs the brass ring and becomes champ
>turns heel and sets up a shit ton of plot lines
>puts over a new talent and retires a GOAT
>based tomboy Viola helps Brother Sebastian win the Cruiserweight belt with the old 'twin swap places when the ref isn't looking' spot
>Sebastian returns the favour by winning the Divas belt, taking her place in the match
>officials scrutinise the video, deducing it's Sebastian by recognising his bulge. The titles are vacated/returned to their owners, and an inter-gender tag match gets booked for the next PPV
