WWE Abandons ‘Big Time Becks’ Trademark Following Controversy

WWE plans a lot of their future storylines and character developments in advance. However, the reception from fans turns out to be very important for the company to make future plans. Back in 2021, WWE featured a heel turn for Becky Lynch with a completely new mission.

After the WWE Universe loved the Man’s new character, the company kickstarted the ‘Big Time Becks’ moniker and applied for its trademark as well. However, as reported earlier, WWE’s trademark application was opposed just days after being filed and legal proceedings regarding it have been going on till now.

A recent update indicates that WWE has withdrawn from the legal dispute and relinquished their claim on the trademark. James K. Duck’s ownership of the term “Bigtime” within wrestling contexts substantiates their opposition to WWE’s claim.

“Abandoned after an inter parties decision by the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board. For further information, see TTABVUE on the Trademark Trial and Appeal Board web page.”

With WWE already abandoning the ‘Big Time Becks’ trademark, it is clear that the company has no plans to continue that character of Lynch again when she turns heel. The Women’s World Champion has been a star of the fans lately and is seemingly not going to change character anytime soon.
