On June 22nd, WWE registered to trademark CM Punk for merchandise use. They trademarked his name back in 2009 for wrestling use, so it will be interesting to see if they allow him to use the name post-WWE. But then they also trademarked Tommy Dreamer and he's been using it everywhere after he left.WWE also registered to trademark 'The Last Outlaw', which at first I thought was a new WWE movie title, but it's for wrestling use.On his twitter, Wade Barrett noted that his journey from Tampa to Cape Town, South Africa would take over 30 hours. Daniel Bryan also mentioned on his twitter that he has a long journey ahead of him. Randy Orton said on his Twitter that he is leaving tomorrow for Cape Town at 9:30 a.m.

Shad Gaspard noted on his twitter that his publisher had "financial disaster" and asking people to pledge money at the following link to help get his graphic novel "Assassin and Son" published.



Val Venis is claiming on his twitter that he's been blackballed from WWE. Probably due to his opinion on various topics he posts on his twitter.
