WWE filed a new trademark for the term "Royce Keys" on Tuesday, January 20, as reported by Fightful.com. This trademark is intended for entertainment services.
"Royce Keys" is expected to be the ring name of an upcoming WWE star who will likely be signed under the NXT brand. However, there is currently no information available about who will use this name.
Additionally, it has been reported that Powerhouse Hobbs is believed to have signed with the company, and there is speculation that his ring name could be changed. However, aside from the timing, there is no indication that he will be using "Royce Keys" as his ring name.
Below is the description submitted to the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO):
