WWE likes to own anything that appears on their television product. Drew McIntyre’s nickname is now the intellectual property of Vince McMahon and Company.
There have been plenty of Scottish Warriors throughout world history, but there is only one in WWE. Now the company has taken the steps to secure that trademark for Drew McIntyre’s nickname.
WWE filed a trademark for Scottish Warrior on February 24th. According to Heel By Nature, they registered the trademark in the typical way that most pro wrestling trademarks are filed.

The company dropped “King of Claymore Country” nickname for McIntyre and substituted it with Scottish Warrior. They can now legally use both names in any way they like.
McIntyre is no longer WWE Champion, but it’s very likely that the Scottish Warrior will find himself in a big match for that title soon enough.
