Pietro Maximoff is Tom Ryder.
He died, he knows he did and yet he's somehow alive in a place where nothing is even remotely similar to what he knew. He had to make do with what he had available to him. It was bad enough with people giving him problems because of his accent, but even his name seemed to upset a few of them.
