The funny thing is, after he trademarked his IG old handle name, DR Abs, he changed it to TheBryanAbasolo after he returned home. from filming, to match Rachel's therachlindsay.
It's very possible, imo, he went on the show with ulterior motive, but it ended with him finding his forever.
Again , only time will tell and they seem very in love now, imo. So I am happy and hope the best outcome.
Life is too short to focus on the negative, says me the forever optimist.

Even though you think you're the ish, you gotta let other people give you nicknames like that and assign you as a pop culture sex symbol. otherwise you risk coming off as a little egocentric IMO. so what's he gonna do now? host clubbing events? lololol

How is choosing to brand himself as a sex symbol? His last name is Abasolo. He's into fitness and has nice abs. His nickname is Dr. Abs. I don't think it's got anything to do with sex. It's about fitness, IMO.

I agree, it's a cute nickname from his name, not for being a sex symbol.

Dr. Abs? with a sketch of his Abs on a mug? I mean I'm just adding 1+1 here but if it can be seen other ways idk. That's just how I see it

Snip.

I actually think he changed his handle so he could be found easily (or easier). Branding 101 IMO.

So, he trademark his name too? Man, this is some Beyonce and Jay z moves.

for a second I thought you typed Beyoncé. Can't believe there's another couple with such similar names, it's uncanny yogaspecialist - Rachel Lindsay & Bryan Abasolo - Bachelorette 13 - Discussion - Page 21 263a

Eh I can see it as being a sex symbol or it being a cute nickname. I honestly think all of these people should brand themselves as long as there truly open to finding love, that's all that really matter. The truth is they don't know what's going to happen so they might as well control what they can which is there brand.

Either way I don't see the big deal - his friend Pauldine signed him up and introduced him to the casting director. The dude is 1 of 31 guys - no guarantee he would win. He might as well use the platform and exposure for something he's passionate about. He'd be stupid not to.
