Ever since The Shield and The Wyatt Family dissolved, WWE fans haven't really been treated to an exciting stable on the main rosterSure, there was a lot of excitement when SAnitY arrived on NXT and fans were eager to see what they would do on Monday Night RAW and SmackDown LIVE, but it's fair to say that all of the hype backfired.
STABLE
Eventually, fans lost interest after one advertisement saw the trio of Eric Young, Killian Dain and Alexander Wolfe saw trademark issues delay their arrival.
While The Undisputed Era is now a team the fans have their eyes on, the WWE's latest move suggests they either have big plans for a popular team, or they're planning to own the name outright.
WWE is continued to expand globally, and we saw that last week when Triple H made the massive announcement that the WWE is going to be launching NXT UK with dedicated championships and programming in what's essentially going to be a British developmental brand for the organisation.
With WWE signing more and more athletes to that brand, the company has made another big move by trademarking 'British Strong Style,' the name used by Pete Dunne, Trent Seven and Tyler Bate - who are already contracted to WWE.
According to PWInsider, the trademark is for: "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.”
BRITISH STRONG STYLE
As expected, fans have mixed feelings towards this.
First off, it suggests that WWE is planning to use Dunne, Bate and Seven as a trio moving forward, while others believe they could be made a focal point of NXT UK with this trademark.
However, others on social media have questioned the decision.
The reason some fans are worried is because, firstly, the promotion Fight Club Pro refers to themselves as British Strong Style, meaning they might not be able to do so moving forward.
Along with this, others are unhappy that WWE is going to have full control over the term, meaning the trio won't be able to use it elsewhere if they did end up leaving the company at one point.
WWE clearly has a lot of trust in them, especially since they're planning to make a big impact in the UK.
Although it's a good sign that WWE sees value in them by trademarking the name, it's understandable why some fans are worried about it all.
