@Son_of_dad @Pancakes Makes sense from a marketing point of view. As far as most people are concerned wrestling=WWE so when you are speaking to a wide audience the best way to get attention on your fledgling company is to name check the brand everyone knows.
Do you ever hear about Sony or Xbox calling itself Nintendo? No, cause they know it would make their own brand look like a garbage fire, trying hard to cling on to relevance.
@Son_of_dad Sony and Microsoft were way bigger companies than Nintendo before they ever got into the console business. Also when Sony first brought out the PlayStation they very aggressively referenced Nintendo and Sega.
