Steve Corino recently got a letter from WWE’s legal department, telling him to stop using the name “The King Of Old School” nickname because they have trademarked the phrase “old school” for anything to do with pro wrestling.
WWE is already going after MTV’s Wrestling Society X, before their debut episode even airs. Most of the wrestlers with WSX have short term contracts (as opposed to TNA and WWE’s long-term deals) and WWE is seemingly going out of their way to offer those people more money to join them. WSX’s debut episode airs this coming Tuesday night at 11:00 PM on MTV.
Kurt Angle will be making his debut for New Japan Pro Wrestling on February 18. The show will feature Kurt Angle & Yuji Nagata vs. Giant Bernard (aka Albert in WWE) and Tomko.
