One day before the United States Patent And Trademark Office's March 20, 2019 deadline, WWE has filed to oppose independent wrestler Tatevik Hunanyan's 'Sister Abigail' trademark. In June 2018, Hunanyan applied to trademark 'Sister Abigail' for use in professional wrestling after WWE abandoned its application to obtain the trademark. On March 19, 2019, WWE officially contested Hunanyan's attempt at securing the 'Sister Abigail' name claiming that Hunanyan did not create the 'Sister Abigail' character and has consequently attempted to "usurp" the intellectual property of WWE. "Hunanyan was an extra for WWE in 2016 and 2017 and expressed a desire to portray the WWE SISTER ABIGAIL character in WWE programming, Hunanyan never portrayed the WWE SISTER ABIGAIL character and is now attempting to usurp WWE's intellectual property by filing the Sister Abigail Application." "By applying for a mark that is identical in sight, sound and commercial meaning to Opposer's SISTER ABIGAIL Mark in connection with identical services as those provided by Opposer, applicant's applied-for mark in the Sister Abigail Application is likely to cause confusion among consumers as to Opposer's affiliation and/or sponsorship of Applicant's services." www.wrestlinginc.com/news/2019/03/tatevik-hunanyan-talks-to-wrestling-inc-about-wwe-opposing-652201/ |

Good, this means they still have plans for Pumpkin Demon v Transvestite Zombie Nun-Man in the back pocket.

They really should have brought in Sister Abigail as a nun or something.

Seriously, though, it's hard enough for indie wrestlers to protect their own gimmicks - stealing gimmicks can justify the actions of promotions like WWE to force its talent into its gimmick ideas. |

Even if the dude wins, I think I'd rather have my own gimmick.

But she's dead. Randy Orton banished her... and then Matt Hardy did it again.
