WALTER finally made the jump over to the United States full-time earlier this year after three years on NXT UK.
Now known as Gunther on SmackDown, he is the reigning Intercontinental Champion with Ludwig Kaiser by his side.
While his ring name itself was changed, Gunther is still known as the Ring General, and he will keep that nickname with him for the rest of his career.
Per the USPTO, Gunther filed to trademark the term ‘Ring General’ on August 13. The following description accompanied the filing:
-G & S: Hats; Shirts; Athletic shirts; Shirts and short-sleeved shirts; Sweatshirts; Hooded sweatshirts.
-G & S: Entertainment in the nature of wrestling contests; Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibits and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer; Entertainment services, namely, live appearances by a a professional wrestler and sports entertainer; Entertainment services, namely, personal appearances by a professional wrestler and sports entertainment personality; Entertainment services, namely, televised appearances by a professional wrestling and sports entertainment personality; Providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network; Providing online interviews featuring a professional wrestling and sports entertainment personality in the field of professional wrestling and sports entertainment for entertainment purposes.
He hired notable wrestling trademark attorney Michael E. Dockins to help with the trademark.
