Sergei Chernyshev (breakdancer)

  • ... that a Russian breakdancer Sergei Chernyshev, the 2018 Youth Olympics B-Boys champion, competes under the nickname Bumblebee, named after a robot superhero in the Transformers franchise? Source: "Chernyshev taught his son all the moves he knew and even helped him to pick out his b-boy name. Bumblebee initially wanted to call himself ‘Optimus Prime’ after a character in the Transformers, but his father deemed the name too mature and suggested ‘Bumblebee’ - the name of a friendly robot from the same franchise - instead."

  • Article was nominated within seven days of its creation. Article is long enough. No pings on Earwigs. QPQ has been completed. Hook is netural, short enough for DYK, and cites a reliable (in the context of the subject material) source. Morgan695 (talk) 00:42, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
