– New trademark applications were filed on April 28th for “Brother Nero”, “Broken Brilliance” and “Broken Matt” by Impact Wrestling. It should be noted that Matt Hardy had applied for a trademark for “Broken Matt Hardy” on March 1st.
A source for Impact Wrestling told PWInsider that while the trademarks are listed as being filed in April, they were actually filed back in January. It was also noted that while the Hardys and Impact are going back and forth with legal letters, there has been no lawsuit filed yet and no agreement or settlement regarding the gimmick has been made.
In regards to PWI’s report Reby Hardy, Matt’s wife, posted the following on Twitter:
If that were true, they would’ve gone through the patent office long before mine did. Don’t buy bullshit reports from “source” Jeff Jarrett
How desperate & pathetic do you have to be to be sending fake reports to dirtsheets tho ? @RealJeffJarrett
