After joining AEW and Ring of Honor in June after departing WWE a few months earlier, it’s been forgotten, but Claudio Castagnoli briefly considered going under a different name during his post-WWE career. The former Swiss Superman submitted a trademark application for “CSRO” in March of last year. However, Castagnoli is currently up against opposition for the trademark application despite not utilizing the name.
WWE will be contesting Claudio Castagnoli’s “CSRO” trademark, according to PWInsider. On Tuesday, the promotion filed a motion to do so, requesting an additional 90 days to submit its opposition. The decision was probably made due to the name’s resemblance to Castagnoli’s 11-year WWE alias, “Cesaro,” which he used, however, WWE taking so long to object to the trademark is unknown at the moment.
