It was dropped quite a few times on last night's Smackdown.
Has anyone noticed this term popping back up again?
Has wrestler and wrestling been dropped yet again?

Do they own the trademark on the term?
If so, to keep it, they may have to use it regularly.

I doubt that it means anything really, certainly not the implication that Vince is back and doing stuff.
I would get a kick out of other forms of entertainment using this though:
Porn Star: Sex Entertainer
Artist: Paint Entertainer
Mime: Silent Entertainer
Actor: Script Entertainer

They never abandoned the term or “universe” but it’s just that they brought back “wrestling” “wrestler” and “fans” and so now everything is said and people just get to say whatever they want like normal human beings.
