I got you!
I only learned about the name switches when I was researching the characters to post the galleries. I knew about Vega and M Bison, but didn't know about the others who had name switches.
If I remember correctly, the name switches was at first because Capcom USA wouldn't take any chances about the obvious reference with the boxer's "M. Bison" name. Then this boxer named "Vega" sounded daff so Barlog had to enter the dance.
I learned about this almost 30 mother fokking years ago in the EGM magazine. Back when video games magazines were relevant and good.
