AEW has filed an application to trademark the term Shockwave
as a name of a future show.
The application was filed with the United States Patent and
Trademark Office three days ago on September 6. It was filed
under the category, “Entertainment in the nature of
wrestling contests; Entertainment services in the nature of
live professional wrestling performances; Entertainment
services in the nature of production of professional
wrestling programs and events; Entertainment services,
namely, production and distribution of ongoing television
programs in the field of professional wrestling.”
Asked about the trademark, AEW President Tony Khan said that
following All Out, the company will continue to provide
“shockwaves” throughout the industry but did not
specifically address the use of the trademark. There are
rumors that the WBD deal will not be exclusive and AEW could
technically air another show on another network similar to
what WWE has at the moment.
AEW currently has Dynamite airing on TBS, and Rampage and
Collision airing on TNT.
