Vince McMahon has recently filed a trademark for his new company’s logo under his private investment firm, No. 14 & Me. This step adds momentum to his business strategy following his departure from WWE and TKO Group Holdings earlier this year.
The trademark covers logo images linked to the firm and is registered under two categories, reflecting the company’s dual focus. The first category involves “Private Equity Fund Investment Services, Financial Services, including Private Equity Fund Management and Financial Portfolio Management.” The second category relates to “entertainment services, specifically the production and development of scripted television and digital content.” This filing comes after the company previously trademarked the names “14th&i” and “14th&I” in August 2024.
Officially, 14th&I describes itself as a private investment firm focused on the sports, media, and entertainment industries. It aims to provide “disciplined, flexible, long-term capital and strategic partnerships” primarily for businesses engaged in shopping and majority transactions. The company’s name is a nod to the historic headquarters of Capitol Wrestling Corporation, once managed by McMahon’s father, Vincent J. McMahon.
Vince McMahon stepped down from his roles at WWE and TKO in January 2024 amid allegations of sexual assault and sex trafficking, following a lawsuit filed by former employee Janelle Grant. The lawsuit is currently on hold as the Department of Justice conducts a private investigation, with Grant’s legal team cooperating fully with federal authorities.
Fan Take: This development shows McMahon shifting gears but staying connected to the sports and entertainment world, hinting at potential new ventures that could influence the industry. For WWE fans, it signals a possible evolution in how wrestling business and entertainment might blend in the future, with McMahon’s legacy continuing to play a role behind the scenes.
