An AEW star has filed to trademark an updated name for their reformed tag team.

On the April 17th edition of Collision, Trent Beretta returned to AEW after 10 months out of action. The comeback came at the end of a tag match pitting Rocky Romero and Tomohiro Ishii against the Don Callis Family’s Konosuke Takeshita and Josh Alexander.

In the final stages of the bout, Romero dropped from the apron in frustration after accidentally being clotheslined by Ishii. This allowed Alexander and Takeshita to grab the win. With the match over, Romero returned to the ring and helped Ishii to his feet before being joined by a hooded figure.

After the figure was revealed to be Trent, Romero joined him in attacking Ishii, joining the Don Callis Family in the process.
