Freelance Wrestling Sent Cease & Desist By WWE Over “In Our Warehouse” Event
WWE is apparently not happy with Freelance Wrestling.
According to Black Label Pro owner Mikey Blanton, Freelance was sent a cease & desist by WWE over the In Our Warehouse logo. The logo bears a striking resemblance to the old WWE In Your House logo.
Freelance Wrestling was set to host a weekly event to stream on IWTV with fans being able to donate to wrestlers. The first event will proceed as scheduled, but the new name is Warehouse Wars. The event is scheduled for Saturday, Mar. 21.
Looks like the crack legal team over at WWE sent out another cease and desist. This time to @FreelanceWres over their “In Our Warehouse” event.
Apparently that’s going to hurt all their In Your House WWE Network views.
Petty af. Damn the man, save the empire.
