WWE Files New Trademark For ‘Bakusai’

WWE has filed a new trademark for what appears to be a ring name, namely “Bakusai.” As Fightful reports, the company filed the application to trademark the name with the United States Patent and Trademark Office on June 26th.

The application lists the description of the trademark as follows:

“Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibitions and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer rendered live and through broadcast media including television and radio, and via the internet or commercial online service; providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network; providing information in the fields of sports and entertainment via an online community portal; providing a website in the field of sports entertainment information; fan club services, namely, organizing sporting events in the field of wrestling for wrestling fan club members; organizing social entertainment events for entertainment purposes for wrestling fan club members; providing online newsletters in the fields of sports entertainment; online journals, namely blogs, in the field of sports entertainment.”

It is not yet clear who the name is for. “Bakusai” is a Japanese term that roughly translates into “blasting to pieces” and uses the kanji (Japanese characters) for “bomb” and “break.”

WWE filed a trademark for new names last week including Vanta The Unknown (Jessica Bogdanov), Kylee Quinn (Meghan Walker), and Milosh Jovic (Dusan Novakovic).
