AEW star Shane Taylor recently filed a trademark application for his in-ring name and the logo associated with his faction, Shane Taylor Promotions, on Friday, June 5, as reported by Fightful.com. This trademark is aimed at entertainment services, specifically for providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network, as well as for merchandising purposes.
Shane Taylor Promotions includes members Carlie Bravo, Shawn Dean, Lee Moriarty, Anthony Ogogo, and Trish Adora. While the faction primarily appears in Ring of Honor (ROH), they are currently engaged in a feud with The Death Riders on AEW television.
In the latest episode of Collision, Taylor defeated Alan Angels decisively. After the match, he addressed the audience, claiming that at that moment, Shane Taylor Promotions was the most violent group in AEW. However, his faction mates were unable to secure a victory against the Death Riders—comprising AEW Continental Champion Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, and “The Bastard” PAC—in the following Trios Match.
