You would think before you ever named your wrestling promotion you would have checked to make sure you had the copyright in place.

Yeah that's not a smart way to go about starting a business, them fools announced the name of the company and Vince went and bought everything remotely related to it. lol

Basically they screwed up the application for the AEW name, with spelling errors and an incorrect dollar amount for the fee, but they're still going to get the name eventually.

And not surprisingly they were told that trying to copyright the terms "Double or Nothing" and "Fight for the Fallen," in 2019 is not as easy as just putting in a claim.

Despite trademark issues, AEW has officially announced Fight for The Fallen set for July 13th at the Daily's Place Amphitheater in Jacksonville, FL.

Any word on who the fallen are whose honor is being defended? Or where they fell from?

They said that portions of the gate would go toward victims of gun violence.

Oh yeah, I remember them talking about that when AEW first formed.

I thought maybe it would be a tribute to all professional wrestlers who have passed away. Doing a show to honor all of them.

Either way, it's a thoughtful gesture.
