I think Franky is the name of her dog?

Its more likely for Taya since I doubt WWE would have filed a trademark for "Franky Monet" just to use it on a dog.
If her last name is meant to be Monet, they didn't file any other trademark using it so Franky couldn't be for her dog. |

It was one of those things I half read and was like "yeah I could see them doing that" and just figured that was the case. It looks like I'm mistaken after actually reading the article.

For sure, WWE's done a lot of odd things over the years and them filing a trademark just to use it for a dog in the end wouldn't be out of the ordinary for them.

When I originally read that I started thinking if they ever trademarked Matilda for the British Bulldogs or Franky for Koko B Ware

Not 100% sure but think you can trademark animal names for merchandise-related stuff in wrestling but not as a wrestler name based on how the wording works for wrestling trademarks and issues with written consent that pop up every so often.
If the USPTO asked for a written consent form for "Franky", WWE wouldn't be able to give them one if the name belonged to a dog and not a person for a wrestler trademark. |

According to Trademarkia, it was all for merchandise-related stuff while the cat was still alive.

So, confession, I’ve never watched Highlander. It’s just come on TV and it starts with a scene of the Freebirds working a 6 man tag but it doesn’t seem to have anything to do with the plot. What’s the deal?

It doesn't. Just there, maybe the wrestlers were close to the set.

So I just watched the video. This was shot in 1985 at a Pro Wrestling USA show. More than likely the Meadowlands in New Jersey. The Freebirds are fighting the High Flyers (Greg Gagne and Jim Brunzell) and Tonga Kid

Who could have imagined in the early 90s that in about 30 years Shawn Michaels and Jim Duggan would look practically identical.

I'm friends with New Jack on Facebook. My new favourite thing is New Jack will randomly comment on Wrestling Facebook Newz pages. Like someone will be talking shit about New Jack in the comments section and New Jack will just show up and talk shit. It's so funny.

Seeing as lucha/cruiser style wrestling has been WWE's weakness for decades outside of some brief moments, shudder to think what WWE's "touch" on Lucha Libre will be. If its anything like what they planed for NXT Japan, its just going to be them trying to buy out and destroy all the big companies in Mexico and shoehorn the NXT style into another market with the only real difference being a roster mostly full of Hispanic wrestlers. Triple H already mentioned in the past that his global goal is for the WWE/NXT style to supplant all of the major styles around the world and create a McDonald's like effect for wrestling in general. At least when Vince decided to take over wrestling, he mostly kept it to the US & Canada and American style of wrestling. Not even stuff like hardcore/deathmatch wrestling will be out of Triple H's cross-hairs since he also mentioned in another past interview about how he wants WWE to eventually be the one who gets to decide which companies are allowed to exist under BS safety and moral excuses that not even WWE is immune from breaking. |

I wonder if they'll ever switch to cable ropes. I've heard it's a big complaint from the luchadors/high flyers.

Maybe for NXT Mexico but doubt it for the main roster.
Then again that would just cause its own set of issues since if you call up someone from NXT Mexico to regular NXT or the main roster, they would then need to adjust to working with new ropes. Impact used to have the problem of wrestlers complaining that the six-sided ring was too stiff compared to the normal rings they used to work in. Only reason they changed it was due to Eric Bischoff at the time thinking the ring was stupid and not being fond of lucha rings. |
