Funny news related to Larry Johnsons TD hand sign......

Mecca · 12-03-2005, 08:18 PM

Professional wrestler Diamond Dallas Page is suing Jay-Z over using this handsign as "copyright infringement". He believes he made the hand sign well known while wrestling in WCW and now Jay-Z is using it to promote his company.

Personally I found this story really funny for some reason. Didn't the last guy who sued Jay-Z get stabbed?......DDP has to watch his back now.

DIAMOND DALLAS PAGE FILES FEDERAL LAWSUIT AGAINST RAPPER JAY-Z ALLEGING TRADEMARK INFRINGEMENT
By: Bob Ryder

1WRESTLING.COM has learned that Diamond Dallas Page has filed a federal lawsuit in Los Angeles against rapper Jay-Z alleging trademark infringement for unauthorized use of the "Diamond Cutter" sign that Page has used commercially since 1996.

Page introduced the diamond shaped hand signal while in WCW and has continued without interruption to use it professionally in wrestling and other entertainment related projects. The sign appears on the cover of Page's new book, "Yoga for Regular Guys" and is something Page went to great lengths to brand as the symbol of the "Diamond Cutter" over the past decade.

Jay-Z began using the symbol professionally well after it had been established by Page and has used it on various products for the past few years, including the cover of "The Dynasty: Roc La Famillia 2000" and "Jay-Z - Fade To Black".

Page introduced his "Diamond Cutter" symbol in 1996 while working for WCW on the weekly NITRO and THUNDER programs and also used the symbol on monthly PPV events and other WCW related live events. He also used the symbol during during countless main stream media appearances, including "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno".

We're attempting to contact Diamond Dallas Page for comment on the lawsuit and will also attempt to contact representatives of Jay-Z for their reaction. We'll have a follow up to this story in the next few days.

My reference was that it's pretty well known that DDP got his world title reign in WCW..........by swapping wives with Bischoff. They were next door neighbors and best buddies.

Apparently he wanted the title pretty bad.....Bischoffs wife is actually pretty hot too. She had a picture in playboy awhile back when they were doing some housewives special thing.

Apparently Bischoff and his wife are/were swingers. When that gold club scandal in Atlanta came out. Bischoff testified in it and admitted he watched his wife have sex with one of the strippers that worked there.

That's pretty insane, I had no idea he was a part of that, guess that explains it for DDP winning the title, I didn't think he was THAT popular to get a run like that.

Unless he trademarked it, I don't think the fake wrestler has a leg to stand on, legally.
