WWE Hints At Major WCW Show Revival
WWE could be delving into WCW’s history as there has been a hint another show from years gone by could be making a comeback.
Vince McMahon famously bought his competition in the spring of 2001 as WCW went out of business ending once and for all the Monday Night Wars.
As part of that deal, WWE also bought the rights to all of WCW’s back catalogue and in the years since events such as The Great American Bash, Halloween Havoc, and WarGames have been revived.
WWE File SuperBrawl Trademark
Now it looks like WWE might have plans for another WCW staple as it files to trademark SuperBrawl with the application noting that the trademark is for:
Exhibition of professional wrestling events rendered through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing wrestling news and information through broadcast media including television and distributed via various platforms across multiple forms of transmission media; providing a website in the field of sports entertainment information.
SuperBrawl was an annual WCW show that ran between 1991 and 2001. The first SuperBrawl event was headlined by WCW Champion Ric Flair defeating NWA World Champion Tatsumi Fujinami in the main event. The final SuperBrawl event was held just a few weeks before the company closed its doors and proved to be the penultimate WCW pay-per-view. That show played host to the main event of Scott Steiner defeating Kevin Nash for the WCW Championship in a two out of three falls match.
Interestingly WWE Champion Cody Rhodes had filed to trademark SuperBrawl himself in late 2019 when he was a part of AEW but that application was subsequently abandoned.
