Has AEW Botched New Trademark?

Tony Khan AEW

A new trademark filing from AEW had many wondering about a possible new show for the company, but eagle-eyed fans have spotted a major issue.

AEW recently filed for a new trademark that had many wondering if a new show was in the works and if that had anything to do with the promised “important announcement” by Tony Khan on AEW Dynamite.

The filing to the USPTO stated that Tony Khan’s company was filing for a trademark for:

“Educational and entertainment services, namely, a continuing program about wrestling accessible by radio, television, satellite, audio, video and computer networks; Entertainment services in the nature of live wrestling performances; Entertainment services in the nature of production of wrestling programs and events;

“Entertainment services, namely, an ongoing multimedia program featuring wrestling distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; Entertainment services, namely, an ongoing series featuring wrestling provided through television and the internet; Entertainment services, namely, production and distribution of ongoing television programs in the field of wrestling”

However, while many reports noted that the trademark was for “AEW COLLISION” the filing actually states that it is for “AEW COLLISON” with a missing second I. The filing is currently live and it remains to be seen if the typo will be fixed – if indeed, it is a typo.
