WWE may be bringing back a star’s former ring name given a new trademark filing after having previously being shortened.
While in NXT Shotzi Blackheart was known by both first and surname, on the main roster the ‘Blackheart’ was dropped.
However now in a new trademark filing on September 16, WWE has filed to trademark ‘SHOTZI BLACKHEART’.
The filing notes:
“Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibitions and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer rendered and through broadcast media including television and radio, and via the internet or commercial online service; providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network; providing information in the fields of sports and entertainment via an online community portal; providing a website in the field of sports entertainment information; fan club services, namely, organizing sporting events in the field of wrestling for wrestling fan club members; organizing social entertainment events for entertainment purposes for wrestling fan club members; providing online newsletters in the fields of sports entertainment; online journals, namely blogs, in the field of sports entertainment.”
It’s worth noting that it’s not necessarily confirmed that the Blackheart surname will be returning, it could just a trademark filed for archival content and purposes, but we’ll keep you posted with any updates.
Shotzi has been out of in-ring action since February 2024 when she was injured during a match for the NXT Women’s Championship against Lyra Valkyria.
