WWE has filed for another ring name-related trademark, this time for Brogan Finlay, the son of Dave Finlay.
Background
This past December, Brogan officially signed with the company and went to Orlando, Florida, to train at the Performance Center. He had been part of a tryout with WWE last year before signing after wrestling for the past two years.
He has worked for promotions including ACTION Wrestling, GCW, Black Label Pro and Beyond. Brogan is just 21 years old. His father, a former WWE/WCW star, has worked for WWE as a producer for decades.
Earlier this month, Brogan lost his NXT in-ring debut match at a house show in Tampa, FL, when he lost to William Regal’s son, Charlie Dempsey, in a singles match. He made his in-ring TV debut on Tuesday night when he lost to the returning Shawn Spears.
