It appears WWE has filled two trademarks, with one being for a potential in-ring name and the other for a former extreme rival.
Last week, WWE filled two trademarks’ applications with the USPTO to trademark ‘ECW’ and ‘Sofia Cromwell.’ The “Sofia Cromwell” application appears to be for in-ring use by a talent although it is unsure who the trademark will be used for. The other is for ‘ECW’ a former competitor to WWE which the company acquired back in 2003, even using it as a third brand between 2006 and 2010. This new trademark appears to be for usage in “software for the creation of mobile internet applications and client interfaces.”
