It's been revealed today that WWE recently filed for a couple of old ECW trademarks. According to multiple outlets, the company is looking to use both "Barely Legal" and "CyberSlam."
As you may recall, the
Barely Legal show was ECW's first PPV way back in April 1997. Cyberslam, meanwhile, was a yearly event that hailed from Philadelphia between 1996 and 2000. It's hard not to wonder what WWE could do with shows like this (hardcore-themed and online interactive PPVs, perhaps?) but it's worth bearing in mind that this might ultimately mean nothing.
Here's the official trademark filing and we'll be sure to keep you guys updated as and when we hear more!
