3) WWE Abandons The Trademark For EC3
In an interesting move, WWE has chosen to abandon their trademark filing for EC3’s name.
Here is what Mike Johnson of PWInsider wrote:
WWE’s trademark application for EC3 was abandoned on 1/25 due to not responding to a notice of initial refusal issued on 7/24 last year within the allowed 6 month period.
Incidentally, the refusal was because EC3 already had a registered trademark himself on 4/23 last year.
WWE, if they choose to, can revive their own application at a later date.
My Take:
- EC3 hasn’t had much success since being called up to the WWE main roster. I have to wonder if this is a sign that they are not going to re-sign him when his contract expires. They have made it pretty clear that they aren’t interested in using him.
2) NXT Superstar To Undergo 2nd Surgery
We have some bad news to pass your way about NXT Superstar Karen Q.
She posted that she will have to undergo a second surgery this week. This comes after breaking her leg 27 weeks ago:
My Take:
- This means that she will be out of action for much longer than originally expected. A definite bummer for her.
