As previously reported, Nikki Cross was among the talent released by WWE on Friday. She left the company alongside her Wyatt Sicks stablemates, which included Kairi Sane, Aleister Black, Zelina Vega, and others.
On Tuesday, April 28, Cross submitted a trademark application for the terms "Nikki Storm" and "Best in the Galaxy," as reported by Fightful.com. These trademarks are intended for use in comic books, merchandising, and entertainment services, specifically for providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network.
Cross previously used the name Nikki Storm before her time in WWE, and "Best in the Galaxy" is a moniker she created for herself. She is expected to become a free agent in July.
