WWE has once again turned heads with its latest round of trademark filings, fuelling speculation about upcoming character debuts, potential faction names, and branding changes. Among the names filed are “The High Ryze” and “JC Mateo,” both of which have fans wondering what’s next for the wrestling giant.
On May 12, 2025, WWE officially filed a trademark for “The High Ryze,” listed under entertainment services. While some fans believed the name could be linked to Seth Rollins’ new alliance with Paul Heyman and Bron Breakker on RAW, the latest episode of NXT confirmed otherwise. “The High Ryze” was introduced as the name of Wes Lee’s new faction, putting to rest initial theories linking the name to Rollins’ storyline.
However, the mystery around Rollins’ faction name continues to intrigue fans, especially with Triple H’s history as “Terra Ryzing” in WCW adding a playful layer to the speculation.
Jeff Cobb’s surprise WWE debut and name change rumorsIn another major development, WWE filed a trademark for the name “JC Mateo” just two days before Jeff Cobb made his surprise debut at WWE Backlash. Cobb interfered in a high-profile U.S. Title match, attacking LA Knight and aiding Jacob Fatu in securing victory.
While the commentary team and WWE.com continued to refer to him as Jeff Cobb, the “JC Mateo” trademark hints at a possible rebranding - something WWE has commonly done with new acquisitions to establish intellectual property control.
Despite the buzz, there’s been no official confirmation from WWE regarding Cobb’s new identity. Still, insiders suggest that “JC Mateo” may soon become his on-screen persona. The ambiguity surrounding his alliance, especially given his silent interaction with Solo Sikoa and Jacob Fatu post-match - has only added fuel to the rumor mill.
These trademark filings come at a time when WWE is actively expanding its roster and reshaping its factions. With new shows like “LFG” and “Evolve” requiring fresh talent and branding, the company appears to be preparing for a significant creative shift.
From faction names to debuting stars, WWE’s latest legal filings offer a glimpse into the direction the company might be heading. Whether it’s Seth Rollins' unnamed alliance or Jeff Cobb’s new persona, fans can expect some major revelations in the weeks ahead.
As always, the WWE Universe remains on alert - ready for what’s next in the ever-evolving world of sports entertainment.
