WWE is cooking up something new behind the scenes—and the latest clue just dropped in the form of a fresh trademark filing.
On December 5, 2025, WWE filed to trademark the name Fahd Tuwaiq, signaling plans to introduce the name into its on-air programming, likely through the NXT system or a main roster debut down the line.
The filing—submitted to the United States Patent & Trademark Office—includes the standard language WWE uses for talent-related trademarks:
“Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibitions and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer rendered live and through broadcast media including television and radio, and via the internet or commercial online service… providing online newsletters in the fields of sports entertainment; online journals, namely blogs, in the field of sports entertainment.”
At the time of writing, WWE has not confirmed which wrestler will be using the name Fahd Tuwaiq. The name Fahd Tuwaiq appears to draw inspiration from Saudi cultural roots—“Tuwaiq” referencing a notable mountain range in the region. WWE has often used location-based inspiration when branding international talent.
What do you think of the name Fahd Tuwaiq? Does it sound like a future main event player—or something you’d expect for a gimmick role? Sound off in the comments and tell us what kind of character you’d book under that name.
