AEW star Jay Lethal recently filed to trademark the name "Black Machismo." That's the name he used in TNA when he was portraying the character that honored "Macho Man" Randy Savage. Lanny Poffo stated several years ago that his brother Randy approved of the gimmick. The filing suggests that we may see the gimmick in AEW.

The filing states that it's for the following:
