On November 21, WWE applied to trademark both “Barely Legal” and “Cyberslam”, the names of two former ECW shows from the late 90s and early 2000s.
I have to say when I saw the initial report on this story, I was a bit confused, but then I remembered the ECW shows.
Here is the trademark description:
Entertainment services, namely, a show about professional wrestling; entertainment services, namely, the production and exhibition of professional wrestling events rendered live and through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing wrestling news and information through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing information in the fields of sports and entertainment through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing a website in the field of sports entertainment information.
This sudden decision to trademark ECW shows could be as a direct response to AEW Vice President Cody trademarking “Bash at the Beach”, something which could reportedly cause legal issues between WWE and AEW.
