You correctly state that Hanuman is related to wrestling, but no one is going off and calling themselves Hanuman. Instead, they look (i.e. pray) to Hanuman to give them strength.

Maybe you should think about contacting the guy who named this event and telling him/her that it might not be a bad idea to use a different name the next time around?

I find it amusing a lot of people seemed to have interpreted it as being used in the more common way.</p> It was pretty obvious that WICKED was used in a way complimentary of Hanuman.
