All Elite Wrestling might want to lawyer up because a company in New York City is running with a logo that looks like a straight-up copy of AEW’s branding.

Kenny The Sports Guy Podcast took to Twitter and uploaded a photo of a vehicle from Amsterdam Electric Wiring Corp that features a suspiciously familiar design. The van’s logo is bold, black, gold, and white, with the exact same font style AEW uses — including the signature highlighted “E.” The only difference is that this “E” is red as opposed to AEW’s yellow.

The company — which promotes itself on Instagram as @aewiringcorp — claims to be a luxury residential and commercial electrical contractor that operates across all five boroughs of NYC. But on its Instagram page, the AEW-style logo is proudly displayed.

Wrestling fans are among the most eagle-eyed people on the internet when it comes to gimmicks, logos or references. So, trying to sneak by with an AEW knock-off might not have been the brightest idea—especially when your company’s name literally starts with “AEW.”

So far, there’s no word from AEW or Tony Khan on whether the company is aware of the situation or planning to take action. So we’ll have to see whether any action will be taken soon.
