WWE trademarks NXT UK Heritage Cup name

On July 20, WWE applied to trademark the NXT UK Heritage Cup name with the United States Patent and Trademark Office.

The application was processed on July 23 with the only entry being “Entertainment services, namely, a show about professional wrestling” and its distribution.

The name sounds like a tournament of some sort that will be held in NXT UK once the brand resumes television tapings. NXT UK has not had new content since March due to the coronavirus pandemic as most of the people in charge of running the show are located in the United States. The United Kingdom was also hit hard with COVID-19 and businesses only started reopening this month.
