WWE/TNA Trademark News: WWF, Hogan, ECW One Night Stand, Raven, Deadlys
WWE is close to finalizing 'World Wrestling Federation' trademark. It's going through the
'opposition' phase.

Meanwhile, Anheuser Busch Inc. is opposing the 'ECW One Night Stand' trademark. No reason given why; while WWE is opposing Bubba Ray Dudley Inc.'s trademark of 'The Deadly Brothers'. Again no reason given why, but its probably obvious why.

In non-WWE trademark news, a company in Italy called Tod's S.p.A is opposing "Hulk Hogan", "Hollywood Hulk Hogan" and "Brooke Hogan" because they own a trademark to "Hogan". As well, another company based in Chicago called Stealth Industries Inc is opposing "Hulk Hogan" and "Hollywood Hogan" because they own a trademark to "Hulk".

NFL Properties LLC, Baltimore Ravens Limited Partnership and Scott Levy himself are opposing TNA's trademark of "RAVEN".

Have Bubba and Devon used the "Deadly" name yet anywhere?

Apparently TNA also trademarked it, as he's fighting them too.

Legally, you can trademark anything you want. I could trademark World Wildlife Fund, but it doesn't mean it would make it through. Of course, if unopposed, I coudl get the rights to the name.

That is some pretty bullshit stuff for TNA to try and pull.

Raven, a guy who came in to help the company, and they end up trying to steal his name+gimmick+whatever else they can get from the character he and Paul Heyman built in ECW. Not to mention the character/storyline advances that occured in both WCW and WWF/E that helped solidify him as a 'name' wrestler.

For a company that claims to be the polar opposite from the WWE, they sure try to screw you as if they were a BIG time company with a two primetime television shows a week, that has been proven to be viewed by God only knows how many viewers in the past 30 plus years.

I think they're only trademarking World Wrestling Federation for the Legends department. That would make the most sense.

Unless they're starting a new brand where all the old farts go.

Same thing.

Oh, and why not let the company that owns Budweiser own the "ECW One Night Stand" name? Sandman would be very pleased.

not so much a mark-out moment but if they are allowed to say "WWF" and such on old footage, then I'm all for it.

Then we could have some decent Attitude-era videos; perhaps a real comprehensive video of The Rock, DX, and others that came up through that time.

as for the Raven shit, it's pretty simple: It's gay.

Why doesn't Levy just copyright it and say screw the rest, like Jericho did?

Scott Levy IS Raven, and I doubt he'd go around suing the Baltimore Ravens or any other entity "infringing the copyright" like WWE and other litigation-happy jabronis do.

I say they do. They blur the scratch-WWF belts, blur the scratch-WWF logos from the ring aprons, mute out anybody saying "WWF", edit the commentary a great deal, edit entire entrance themes completely for the WrestleMania Anthology set, even for no reason (e.g., Slick). I say that's more than chopping...more like butchering.

I haven't even NOTICED the differences in commentary in the Mania Anthology. They say WWF so little that it hardly makes a difference. The only way you'd know is if there's a serious gap in commentary (and let's face it, it doesn't take long to say "WWF") or if it's part of a sentance. And after about ten minutes I hardly even notice the blurs.

As for themes, for whatever reason (almost always copyright issues) they're changed, and even if the WWE was still the WWF it would still be modified. Hell, the ORIGINAL release of Mania 1 was edited. Can you tell me which theme was edited out?

That's part of what cracks me up. Even if it was WWF, you'd still have themes changes, you'd still have edits (Hell, WWE's edited their recent Wrestlemanias without even needing a court order to change the name or losing the rights to use a song.

And the massive hate that comes out of it, as though your memories would be completely preserved if not for Pandas being greedy, is fucking hilarious in its sheer level of stupidity.

Though personally, I am a bit annoyed by the blurs, and would like to see some sort of agreement where past products can be released with the WWF logos/phrases included.

If not, I won't lose any sleep, I'm just saying I would prefer it. I could actually care less about edits, as long as they don't disrupt my viewing at all (Like you said, it's hard to noticed the commentary being affected, so that doesn't bug me)

The blurs bother me, the theme replacements bother me, the commentary replacements don't in the least, mostly because I don't even notice. I was told they did it.

Oh yeah, I would PREFER the WWE to get an agreement to allow everything unblurred, but it's not like "OMG I CAN'T SEE A LOGO SO IM NOT GOING TO WASTE MY MONEY ON THIS SET WITH ONLY ONE ATTITUDE MATCH ON IT".

Yeah, it's more "It'd be nice."
