Just a reminder that Hornswoggle was in the WWE for over twice as long as Eddie Guerrero.

Samoa Joe has the best music. Probably my favourite entrance music at the moment.

Turns out they were not.

PWInsider.com research indicates that the copyright and trademark on the brand name lapsed last year with his International Wrestling Corp, LLC applying for it again on March 30th of this year. The trademark has not been officially assigned, theoretically making it impossible for them to be transferred to Corgan.

The applicant was also informed that the marks in two pending applications present a potential bar to registration under Section 2(d), if registered. In addition, applicant was required to provide an amended definite identification of goods, provide information relevant to examination under 37 C.F.R. §2.61(b), clarify the mark description, provide clarification regarding the claimed dates of first use, and provide clarification regarding the applicant’s claim of concurrent use."

It appears based on the ruling that the issue at play is related to merchandising of the NWA brand, specifically that the NWA name may come into conflict with other existing applications featuring a similar brand name and that Tharpe, in his application, did not show adequate proof that the brand was currently being used in commerce, i.e. was actually being sold.

Corgan and Tharpe are still in talks for Corgan to purchase NWA rights but at the moment, nobody knows if Corgan can still get the full rights or how much of the deal has to be changed due to these problems.

Wording of the application managed to infringe on a NWA-like trademark owned by another company(s) and didn't prove the NWA itself was still an active company.

Corgan and Tharpe are still in talks for Corgan to purchase NWA rights but at the moment, nobody knows if Corgan can still get the full rights or how much of the deal has to be changed due to these problems.

Remember when Miz had that incredibly forced face turn and he was supposed to be Ric Flair's protigee, even temporarily adopting the Figure Four? He sucked at mimicking him. Shit was awful.

Here? He is spot on being "enraged tantrum" Ric and not even trying. In this moment, his accuracy is higher than Jay Lethal's.

Bret Hart's oldest brother, Smith Hart, was recently moved into Hospice care and came to terms with his life ending soon. He's been dealing with prostate cancer for years and got to the point of no longer wanting to deal with the suffering.

Apparently Cena recently blamed everyone he's feuded against over the years for why their pushes and/or momentum stopped after their feud with him ends. Also claimed credit for Miz's recent greatness and their Mania feud being interesting.

Quote:

If you look at my existence in WWE, I have never asked anyone and will never ask anyone to pull any punches. I believe that it’s a ‘Strong Survive’ environment, and accept nothing less. I think people forget my [history] in WWE sometimes and the fact that I truly had to earn every inch. There is this overwhelming perception that I am protected and coddled — that couldn’t be father from the truth.

Every single opponent that I have, if they don’t realize that I give them free range to throw their best punch — and just know that I’m going to punch back — I openly let that be known. I just think it’s something that goes vastly overlooked.

I just believe you bring your best to every story and you bring your best to every fight. And if my skills aren’t as good, then it’s time to step back. It’s just a matter of believing in myself and going out there and speaking from the heart. I believe that sometimes that’s something missing in some of the WWE storylines … being honest and brave enough to put everything out there on the table.

I’ve always done that, and I think the same could be said about multiple storylines with multiple Superstars … and it’s always with me.

This is why I have the reputation of quote-unquote “burying younger talent,” because I will let them do whatever they want with me — and then after they get done, they’re not as motivated. So, it’s not that I sink their ship, it’s that they fail to operate at an elite level. And I’m on to the next person, [to] whom I say, “Hey man, bring your best punch and I’m gonna punch back” — and they don’t take that attitude beyond me.

I take that approach to everyone. The Miz story couldn’t be a better example of that, because when that story started … no one wanted to see that match. No one. I made it a point to have everyone work as hard as they could to change everyone’s mind. And now here you are, months after the fact, saying that was one of the most entertaining things done on television. That just goes to show you that it’s all just about how much you’re willing to invest and how strongly you believe in what you want to do.

Suzuki comes out, even in defeat, looking like a monster who took the champion to the limit. Gedo even had an amazing role in it, seriously contemplating throwing in the towel.

And with Jim Ross calling it? Holy shit was I invested.

Disagree. Was some Super Cena type shit.
