WWE has made a couple of rounds of filings with the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) this week.
As noted, WWE filed for an interesting trademark on Monday, November 3, 2025.
The filing ended up being to trademark the ring name ‘Skylar Raye,’ which as seen during the November 4 episode of NXT on CW the next day, was revealed to be the new ring name for the WWE LFG season two winner Dani Raye Sekelsky.
On Tuesday, November 4, WWE filed once again with the USPTO for a trademark related to WWE NXT faction DarkState, which consists of Cutler James, Saquon Shugars, as well as reigning WWE NXT World Tag-Team Champions Dion Lennox and Osiris Griffin.
Featured below is the official description of WWE’s USPTO filing on 11/4 for DarkState:
