The Young Bucks Address All Elite Wrestling Trademark Filings (AUDIO)

The Young Bucks say recent trademark filings related to All Elite Wrestling were done in effort to keep the group’s options open next year and protect themselves at the same time.

Nick and Matt Jackson are guests on the upcoming episode of Petey’s Wrestling Perspective Podcast with co-host Dennis Farrell and the two brothers didn’t shy away from talking about the filings in an exclusive clip given to Pro Wrestling Sheet.

Matt says the group all discussed the possibility of doing a follow-up to All In immediately after the successful event in Chicago. Everyone involved agreed that they’d have to do another at some point. “We’re in a situation now where we don’t exactly know what we’re going to do,” Matt explained. “But we do want to protect ourselves in case we decide to do something.

In case you missed it, multiple trademarks were filed this month which seem to indicate future plans for events called Double or Nothing and All Out. The address listed on the docs indicates the group is working with the billionaire Khan family, who own the Jacksonville Jaguars.

According to sources, Cody and the Bucks are leading the charge behind the scenes on this possible new venture for once their ROH deals expire. As we previously reported, we’ve been told Jim Ross and Chris Jericho would only be involved on a talent level should any promotion get off the ground.

Jim Ross talked about this in a roundabout way on his latest podcast. “I’ve been rumored to be in every role in this company and what you find out is eye-rolling,” Ross said unhappily.

“At one point it’s Jericho and me, which I thought ‘that’s really stupid.’ Me and Jericho are gonna spend all the money we made over the years to get into the wrestling business. ‘Nah, you crazy? Are you nuts?’ Then secondly, then we’re not involved at all. It’s these other guys that are really the movers and shakers. There ain’t nothing to move here, folks. There ain’t nothing to shake.”

The legendary announcer then discussed with guest Dave Meltzer how a promotion like All Elite Wrestling would need a TV deal with a major cable or broadcast network to be successful.

Nick Jackson talked further about the future of The Elite during the interview with Petey Williams and said, “We have offers on the table from every major company in the world.” Matt additionally noted that they also have investors who want to work with the group.

“We haven’t said no, really, to anything,” Nick added. “So we’re just keeping our options open and protecting ourselves at the same time.”

The full interview goes live this evening and covers the Bucks’ exit from Impact Wrestling, how it’s been working for Ring of Honor, getting talent over on Being the Elite and more.

Updates Regarding ‘All In’ And ‘Young Bucks’ Trademark Filings, Possible Future ‘All In’ Plans

Image result for all in

As early as the conclusion of ‘ALL IN’, Cody [Rhodes] and The Young Bucks not so subtly suggested that ‘ALL IN 2’ may already be in the works. The current trademark filings of Killing The Business, Inc. with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”) indicate that the ‘ALL IN’ pay-per-view that took place last month in Hoffman Estates, Illinois may never have been the group’s endgame.

According to the initial trademark application filed in May 2018 on behalf of Dana Massie, Matt Jackson’s wife and President of Killing The Business, Inc., the ‘ALL IN’ trademark was meant for more than just the single pay-per-view event. Among other things, the filing provides for multiple professional wrestling events and even “ongoing television programs”.

“Entertainment in the nature of professional wrestling matches, exhibitions, and tournaments and ongoing television programs in the field of professional wrestling; organizing and conducting professional wrestling matches, exhibitions, and tournaments; production and syndication of television programs featuring professional wrestling matches, exhibitions, tournaments and performances.”

Notably, on September 14, 2018, the USPTO delivered to Killing The Business, Inc. a letter requiring further action to finalize the approval of the ‘ALL IN’ trademark. The letter indicated that “the nature of the exhibitions organized and conducted must be clarified” and the “applicant must amend this wording to specify the common commercial or generic name for the goods and/or services.” Killing The Business, Inc. has six months from September 14, 2018 to satisfy the USPTO as to the meaning of “exhibitions”. Otherwise, the ‘ALL IN’ trademark will be considered abandoned and fair game for any trademark applicant to snap up the mark.

Basically, what that means is that Killing The Business, Inc. is being given six months to clarify to the USPTO what kind of “exhibitions” they are planning using the “All In” trademark. “Exhibitions” could be just a normal pro wrestling show or something as grand as a convention, ala Starrcast. The USPTO just wants to know what Killing The Business, Inc. means by “exhibitions”.

On a related note, Killing The Business, Inc.’s trademark for ‘Young Bucks’ will be published for opposition on October 23, 2018, today. This means that the ‘Young Bucks’ trademark will be registered to Killing The Business, Inc., according to the USPTO, provided that no other party steps forward to contest the registration of the trademark within 30 days of today. If no one steps forward to contest it within the next 30 days, then it will be owned by Killing The Business, Inc.

Only time will tell what the future holds for the Bullet Club Elite members who have vowed to take their next steps together as a group.

Plans For Second “All In” Event Teased (AUDIO)

all in part two teased talk is jericho cody rhodes young bucks matt nick jackson

The All In event hasn’t even taken place yet, but The Young Bucks and Cody Rhodes sound like they’re already tossing around the idea of promoting part two.

The trio were guests on the latest episode of Talk is Jericho and while discussing the idea of a second show Matt Jackson said they feel it has to be just as ambitious as the first in terms of drawing a huge crowd — questioning how big they should try to go.

“Could you do another one and say ‘Oh, I want 10,000 again?” Jackson continued, “Or do you do, I want 20,000 or I want 15,000?  I personally would like to do Madison Square Garden.  I think that would be cool.”

Adding, “Or I’d like to do something in Los Angeles at a big building there.” It was later implied they’ve already had meetings with officials from The Forum, as Staples is locked down by WWE.

“I would love to see what happens if you guys do Madison Square Garden, because the old man is not going to stand by,” a laughing Jericho replied. “It’s definitely an option,” Matt replied.

At the end of the podcast, Jericho said it’s always possible he could participate in All In 2.

The sold-out All In event is set to go down September 1 in Chicago.

Listen to the back-and-forth (which was recorded in June) below. This part begins around 1:23.

Matt Hardy Proposes Showdown With The Young Bucks At All In

matt hardy all in bray wyatt young bucks

Matt Hardy is proposing he and Bray Wyatt make a trip to All In to defend the WWE RAW tag team titles against The Young Bucks.

Hardy tweeted out the suggestion after comments made by The Bucks following Saturday’s New Japanshow in San Francisco.

When asked about what they have left to accomplish, Matt Jackson made a suggestion some might consider out of the ordinary.

“How cool would it be to win the WWE tag team championship belts and not even have to perform on their show? That would be great,” he told reporters.

“A little one off?,” Nick responded.

“Yeah, a little one off.  That would be fun,” Matt replied.

The result was a tweet from Hardy that read: “What are these FANTASTICAL FANCIES that you speak of, Bucks of Youth?  September 1st?”  The tweet included pictures of Hardy/Wyatt with their belts and The Young Bucks carrying their titles.

Matt Hardy has extensive history with The Young Bucks — and we recently saw WWE give Nick and Matt quite a bit of promotion on their social channels.

“All In” Sells Out In Under An Hour

After months of speculation about whether a self-financed, ten-thousand-seat event put on by The Young Bucks and Cody could sell out, we finally have our answer … it’s yes.

Tickets went on-sale Sunday afternoon and it only took around thirty-minutes for All In at the Sears Centre Arena in Chicago, Illinois — which has a capacity of 11,800 people — to be considered a sell out. No word on the exact number of tickets sold as of yet.

Rhodes revealed that tickets, which went on sale Sunday afternoon, were sold out in just under a half hour officially at 29 minutes and 36 seconds.

As you may you recall, this comes about a year to the date after Cody Rhodes claimed he’d “take that bet” when Dave Meltzer tweeted saying Ring Of Honor wouldn’t be able to sell out a ten thousand seat plus arena “any time soon.”

As we first reported back in November of last year, Cody and the Young Bucks had started to put together the plans for the event and shortly after a date/venue were announced. Since then they’ve put together an incredible line-up of talent for the event including Kazuchika Okada, Deonna Purrazzo, Pentagon Jr, Rey Fenix, Tessa Blanchard, Stephen Amell and just announced earlier today – Rey Mysterio.

In the back, Cody apologized to The Young Bucks, but Nick told Matt and Marty Scurll, “I don’t think we can trust this guy.”
