WWE Reportedly Sends Cease And Desists Notice To ROH's Young Bucks Over Their "Too Sweet" Hand Gesture
Yes, it looks like this is a real thing. WWE really doesn't want Ring of Honor's Young Bucks using that "Too Sweet" hand gesture that originated with The Clique all those years ago. More past the jump...
The Young Bucks and the rest of The Bullet Club showed up outside RAW's venue this past Monday for an "invasion." Even though it was just a bit of fun to help drum up some publicity for the ROH stars, it may have backfired in a way nobody could have expected.
For many years now, The Bullet Club has been using the "Too Sweet" hand gesture that was made popular by Shawn Michaels and The Clique many years ago in WWE - but it sounds like Vince McMahon only just got wind of it.
According to a Ryan Satin of ProWrestlingSheet.com, the Young Bucks have been served with a legitimate cease and desist notice from WWE, who is insisting that they stop using the gesture. If this is not adhered to, the company could seek up to $150K in damages.
The Bucks are reportedly looking into their legal options, but knowing this pair, they'll figure out some kind of loophole. Hand gestures are easily modified, after all!
