WWE Files New Trademarks For Multiple Ring Names

WWE has filed trademarks for several new potential ring names, signaling that fresh characters could soon be introduced to television or developmental programming.

The filings were submitted yesterday and include five new names that appear to be tied to future performers or rebranded talent. The newly trademarked names are Max Abrams, Gianna Capri, Jacari Ball, Veronica Haven, and Anya Rune.

All of the filings were submitted under WWE’s standard entertainment classification, which covers professional wrestling performances, appearances across television and digital platforms, and related fan engagement services. This language is commonly used when WWE secures intellectual property rights for potential ring names before debuting or repackaging talent.

The official trademark descriptions state that the names are intended for entertainment services involving wrestling exhibitions and performances delivered live and through broadcast media, including television, radio, and internet platforms. The filings also cover providing wrestling-related information online, fan club services, newsletters, blogs, and organizing social entertainment events tied to wrestling audiences.

Trademark filings like these often signal WWE preparing for new character launches, name changes, or developmental debuts, particularly within its WWE NXT system. While it is not yet clear which wrestlers will use these names, the timing suggests WWE is continuing to build out its future roster pipeline.

Names such as Max Abrams and Jacari Ball could point toward new male talent, while Gianna Capri, Veronica Haven, and Anya Rune sound like possible additions to WWE’s women’s division. However, WWE frequently trademarks multiple names at once, meaning not all of them will necessarily make it to television.

These filings also come during a period where WWE has been actively refreshing its roster and introducing new talent ahead of major events, including WrestleMania 42, which often serves as a launchpad for new stars and storylines.

For now, the names remain placeholders until WWE officially assigns them to performers or introduces them on programming.

Which of these new WWE ring names stands out the most to you — and which one sounds like it could become the next breakout star? Drop your thoughts and let us know.
