Am I the only one feeling like Quack is gunning for that "No, I'M the biggest rear end in a top hat promoter!" spot here? I mean come the gently caress on.

Doesn't matter, you cannot only enforce trademark/copyright punitively. Either you show you legally exert intent to protect your intellectual property or you lose to the right to claim it.

You cannot allow your intellectual property to be used freely for over a decade and then change your mind on one guy because you're mad.

This is both factually accurate but also annoyingly doesn't stop people from doing it All. The. Time. It's stupid bullshit is what it is, I don't care what "insiders" know that we don't. If Quack is doing it as some gently caress you to the guy currently known as Jervis, he might be justified in doing so on a macro level, but the way he's going about it is both bullshit and likely the only recourse that Quack has.

I'd also have a lot more sympathy/benefit of the doubt to give if there weren't tons of documented examples of Quack being like, McMahon-level petty about certain things.
