WWE's application for Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy trademarks filed on June 19th were already assigned to a trademark attorney on July 27th, by-passing the 3 month wait that apply to most applications. It should be noted that GFW's applications which were filed on April 28th were also assigned to a trademark attorney on July 27th.
As with GFW's application, WWE's application for Matt Hardy was refused due to potential confusion with the Broken Matt Hardy application which was filed first. Any action will be suspended till Matt's application is finalized.
Both applications were also refused due to WWE not providing the Hardys' consent to trademark their names. They quickly responded by providing consents from Matt and Jeff.
WWE's application for a Hardy Boyz trademark which was filed in April will be published for opposition to the public at the end of this month.
