The Godfather files for two trademarks.
According to recent trademark filings reported by PW Insider, The Godfather filed for trademarks on multiple personals he utilized over the course of his career on 1/18. He trademarked the two gimmicks that made him famous.
WWE Hall of Famer Charles Wright filed for trademarks on multiple personals he utilized over the course of his career on 1/18. Wright filed for trademarks on:-The Godfather.-Papa Shango. Each filing was for goods and services in the realms of “Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibits and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer; Entertainment services, namely, live appearances by a professional wrestling and sports entertainment personality; Entertainment services, namely, personal appearances by a professional wrestling and sports entertainer; Entertainment services, namely, televised appearances by a professional wrestler and sports entertainer; Providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network; Providing online interviews featuring a professional wrestler and sports entertainer in the field of professional wrestling and sports entertainment for entertainment purpose”
We’ll have to see what the Godfather does with those gimmick names. Obviously, he could appear at indie wrestling shows and conventions under those personas to give autograph collectors some rare additions to their collections.
