WWE has secured the trademark rights to several terms, including a new gimmick match for NXT.
On February 23, the company filed for “Jailhouse Street Fight,” “WWE NXT,” “Royal Rumble,” “Money In The Bank,” “Elimination Chamber,” and “Fatal 4-Way” with The United States Patent and Trademark Office under the entertainment services classification.
The Jailhouse Street Fight is described as follows:
“Mark For: JAILHOUSE STREET FIGHT™ trademark registration is intended to cover the categories of entertainment services, namely, a show about professional wrestling; entertainment services, namely, the production and exhibition of professional wrestling events rendered through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing wrestling news and information through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing information in the fields of sports and entertainment through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing a website in the field of sports entertainment information.”
The Jailhouse Street Fight is a new match type that will be used at NXT Roadblock in a few weeks, thanks to Tony D’Angelo’s recent challenge to Dijak. It’s unclear whether this is just a renamed street fight or whether special weapons will be used.
