WWE was PG in 1997-1998? With DX and Steve Austin at their raunchiest?

He may feel differently. This was my first thought. Even though I would mark for the return of Cyrus.

Maybe, its an angle in which 'the network' fired Daniel Bryan. Maybe it's to deepen the Nxt storyline. THIS! This is the first thing I thought of when I saw the story. It's gaps like this that make me skeptical about the legitimacy of the Daniel Bryan incident.

It could (its a stretch) start with this whole tie thing and possibly end up being the thing that ends PG... That's what I was hoping, it could tie into 'The Network' making them stop matches to wipe blood off and other unpopular aspects of PG. You could involve Michael Cole, the bland favoured network announcer. Then there's the trouble with smackdown moving networks, and the future of NXT being unknown. It's a hope, but it could fill in a lot of gaps.

I think Daniel Bryan's going to come back dressed up like the Verizon guy.
"It's The Network!"

Jesus Christ! How could they trademark such a generic term!? Same way James Cameron could trademark the word "Avatar". Or how Donald Trump trademarked "You're fired." Or Paris Hilton trademarked "That's hot."

The E shouldn't be adding ever increasing expenditures while at the same time facing ever declining revenues (see PPV sales, DVD sales and ad revenues). The network is a bad idea imho. It might have worked 8 years ago when wrestling was white hot, but not today.

Uh what? How did no one ever trademark that? So does that mean Facebook owes WWE money for networking? Anyways, my guess is it's NXT: Barrett - Corporate Leader Otunga - Diplomat/Connections Gabriel - Mascot Slater & Young - R&D Sheffield - Marketing Tarver - "The product" Whenever they attack someone, they call it a "focus group".

I did (they trademarked the name, or at least want to), TV stations/networks are far from cheap this is a mistake in the current environment imo.

How does one acquire a trademark? I want to start trademarking random, cool-sounding words and phrases.
Profit.

Might not have to do with NXT.
PWPIX.NET
- WWE recently trademarked the term "The Network." There is speculation that this has to do with the planned WWE cable network that has been in the news.
