Tommaso Ciampa has filed to trademark the terms ‘Psycho King’ and ‘Psycho Killer’ with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO). The filings were made for goods and services in the realms of merchandise and entertainment.
The descriptions for the trademarks cover a wide range of printed materials. This includes posters made of paper, printed postcards, printed picture postcards, and stickers. It also covers collectible printed trading cards, printed sports trading cards, and collectable printed trading cards.
In addition to merchandise, the trademarks cover entertainment services. This includes wrestling contests, providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network, and wrestling exhibits and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer. It also lists televised appearances, personal appearances, and live appearances by a professional wrestler.
‘Psycho Killer’ is a nickname that Tommaso Ciampa used extensively earlier in his career. He utilized the moniker during his time on the independent scene and during his run in NXT, where he made a name for himself as a top heel. The nickname refers to his aggressive in-ring style and character work.
The filing for ‘Psycho King’ appears to be a variation of the ‘Psycho Killer’ moniker. Ciampa announced on Wednesday that he is departing from WWE when his contract expires. You can read his statement here.
