Find you someone who loves you with the same level of passion that Drew McIntyre hates Jey Uso.

They don't even try to see if stuff is trademarked anymore, huh? Obviously trying to get Banger Bros passed everyone was a rib, but this, you really should have done the 30 seconds it took to look into.

Hold up, was it trademarked by the "Yeet Movement" guy? According to both the USPTO and the Justia database, he does not actually hold the trademark, but he has applied for it. Application's been in the system since 2021, and has been sitting in a suspended state since October 2022. Last update I can find on it was back in May, where a suspension check was completed but it remained in suspension. Why WWE is seemingly unable to do their due dilligence in these matters, something that would take a few minutes on both those databases and likely some additional correspondence if necessary, I have no idea. They keep getting bit in the ass by trademarks and it's unnecessary. |

I know the person who owned the trademark and I can’t even begin to believe this actually happened. I do know the details of this but don’t know how much I can actually say besides maybe that it belonged to an indy wrestler. Heard Friday night that something was happening soon. A MS based Indie wrestler has been using Yeet for close to 10 years now. Has it on his merch. And his Fury was pretty high about this. Thinking mayybe some POWERRR triggered all this. EDIT-LOL forgot what my sig picture is Gimme Two Claps and a YEEET YEEET |

but yea there is piles of footage on Youtube from at least 2014 or 2015 of Rey Fury using YEET or YEEET as a catchphrase.
Since the Uso thing started Rey has been catching shit over this.

He should change it to "YEAH" LA Knight immediately sues! Still don't even know what the f*** "yeet" means. Worked with a kid last summer who kept saying it, but constantly using it in different context where I couldn't quite figure out what it was supposed to mean It's the opposite of yoink! >_> well depending on which definition you use... from the dictionary the orginal definition I know is... Verb - to throw especially with force and without regard for the thing being thrown It also has just kinda become a interjection of approval. |

He's the one that said no I want to be signed in exchange for the rights. He really shouldn't have been surprised at what happened. |

Hold up, was it trademarked by the "Yeet Movement" guy? It was trademarked by Kasey Huffman aka Huffmanley in ASW. |

Two things... 1. Stephen P. New is the lawyer who filed Huffman's trademark. Yes...THAT...Stephen P. New (SPN has been the kayfabe commissioner of ASW for a long while until earlier this year when he was replaced by...an injured Huffman) 2. WWE has a history of not having TM on some of their shit - remember the "Eat, Sleep, Suplex, Repeat" Bork shirts? Yeah they didn't own the TM on those either. Or at least on the "Eat, Sleep (SOMETHING), Repeat" concept. And I know this because a few years ago, when my friend was running merch for our local minor league baseball team, he and I were brainstorming goofy tshirt ideas for the team shop. I have the idea "Eat, Sleep, Toast, Repeat" (our 'super fan' is called " The Toast Man") He could find no variations of WWE owning the TM on it...it was, like, some party store in Texas. He got their permission, got the shirts made, and they sold like gangbusters. When Taz was shooting 3 years ago about running a "sloppy shop" this isn't what he had in mind...but they do this kind of shit all the time. |
