This past May 20th, WWE filed to trademark the "Rick Boogs" name with the USPTO (United States Patent and Trademark Office) under the entertainment services category. Rick Boogs (Eric Bugenhagen) debuted on SmackDown this past Friday night, where he was paired with Shinsuke Nakamura.
When Nakamura was making his ring entrance for his match against King Corbin, Boogs played his guitar to the tune of Nakamura's entrance theme music. Rick Boogs also distracted King Corbin when he got on top of the announce table and started playing his guitar, which led to Nakamura beating Corbin. Boogs signed with the WWE back in 2017 and has worked under the name Ric Bugez.
Below is the use description WWE submitted to the USPTO:
"International Class 041: Entertainment services, namely, wrestling exhibitions and performances by a professional wrestler and entertainer rendered live and through broadcast media including television and radio, and via the internet or commercial online service; providing wrestling news and information via a global computer network; providing information in the fields of sports and entertainment via an online community portal; providing a website in the field of sports entertainment information; fan club services, namely, organizing sporting events in the field of wrestling for wrestling fan club members; organizing social entertainment events for entertainment purposes for wrestling fan club members; providing online newsletters in the fields of sports entertainment; online journals, namely blogs, in the field of sports entertainment."
