Aren't all names random? All but a few phonemes symbolic to a meaning or "truth" otherwise inaccessible to us as humans?
With that said, I'll say R-Truth, (hyphen and all).

I can see what you're saying, but on the other hand some guys like meaning behind it. Such as Kevin Owens. For random...Road Dogg?

Yeah it might have significance, but the actual sounds are arbitrary. We can get real deep into the philosophy of language.

Anything from the FCW/NXT name generator, especially from 2009-2015.

He came into WWF as the Roadie. At the time it wasn’t super uncommon for people to use some form of Dogg/Dawg in nicknames. Like Konnan started calling himself K-Dawg. There are lots of random names but for some reason I can’t think of any right now.

That depends. Are we taking WWE only? Because if not then the indies after jam packed with ridiculous names.
Hoodslam's Drugs Bunny comes to mind.

I think the 80's/90's WWF was all about making a random thing into a "wrestler"
"The Poet" Lanny Poffo (a Poet) "The Genius" Lanny Poffo (a Genius) "Leaping" Lanny Poffo ... (a gymnast) Duke "The Dumpster" Droese (a Garbage man) Razor Ramon (a Scarface character impersonation) Goldust (not really sure...) Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake (a barber) I.R.S. (a IRS agent) Val Venis (a porn star) Akeem "the African Dream" (One man gang is now... african?) The Honky Tonk Man (Elvis impersonator)

Dunno if these qualify as random, but without a doubt some of the worst: Big Dick Johnson, Terra Ryzin, The Ding Dongs, Shark Boy, Curry Man, Meat, Jimmy Wang Yang, Sparky Plug to name a few.
Wrestling is weird...

R stands for Ron, Truth is his Gimmick in TNA , at the time wwe changed Indy names , so R- Truth , instead of Ron “The Truth” .Killings

They’re all built around a character that was thought up. Random means they were like “Yeah. Whatever. This is his name.” and there’s no reason for that to be the name.

What's the meaning behind Dolph Ziggler's name?
Also Scotty Goldman.
