XFLShop.com is going to start selling team gear this coming Wednesday. I doubt that they have names and logos already set up but hey it's possible. They have had nearly a year of fans suggesting team names for potential markets.
What else would they be selling? T-shirts that say "XFL St. Louis" or something like that? I think it's likely they have the logos and names set.
Maybe we are reading too much into it but they might have names already. That would be a huge story.

Definitely huge, but I'm not going to get my hopes up. What if the 8 teams that leaked were fake and a couple of them changed? Now that would be an interesting storyline. Probably not going to happen though... :?:

There is a rumor going around that The XFL has trademarked a bunch of names. It's possible that they would put them up for a fan vote. So if any of them are not accepted. The league would still own the names for future use.

Some names that are rumored are Seattle Steelheads(like the fish) and Houston Roughnecks. I don't know how true the rumors are. We will find out more tomorrow afternoon.

I hope they keep the Xtreme & Hitmen names. It would be nice to see the Xtreme defend their title.

I liked the Hitman logo & colors too. Got both jerseys.

If the XFL put names up for a vote and on their list for New York is Hitmen and on the list for LA is Xtreme. Those two might get voted in by the fans. Not sure if The New XFL wants those names again or not. They want everything about the league to be new and I think they want to shake the old image.

Dallas Desperados is cool, but I think Jerry Jones or someone owns that name.

Houston Oilers - Let em sue

LAX - Gotta let the Xtreme defend their title.

NY - Drop the NJ. Keep the Hitmen. Knights is cool and they were a arena team at MSG back in the 90s. Unis looked like the team on Any Given Sunday

St. Louis - Gamblers

Seattle - I dunno

Tampa Bay Bandits - Ah, history.

DC - Washington Americans. Liked that idea.

I had this idea that the LA and NY teams could wear the Xtreme and hitmen throwbacks when they play each other in 2020, no matter what team name they have come 2020. That would be cool.

Anybody know how to research what names WWE or Alpha have trademarked?

You can use google to find trademark search engine sites. Perhaps you can stumble upon some names.

I know that it was reported that Vince McMahon trademarked The United Football League when it was abandoned but ultimately decided to use the xfl name again.

https://trademarks.justia.com/search?ty ... mark_owner

I went looking for trademarks and I found that "Vipers" is still trademarked by the XFL.

Other things:

Voyage Pictures?-Not sure what that is but it is filed as:
Entertainment services, namely motion picture and video production


Journey Entertainment?-Same thing:

Entertainment services, namely motion picture and video production


And Alterverse:

Computer game software downloadable from a global computer network; Computer game programmes downloadable via the Internet


So no real hints I could find on team names, but Vipers is on the table as a possibility...
