According to recent records, trademark applications have been submitted for the names “Nikki Storm” and “The Best In The Galaxy,” both of which are closely associated with the performer prior to her tenure under the Nikki Cross ring name.

Nikki Storm was the moniker she used prominently on the independent circuit and during her time in Scotland before signing with WWE, while “The Best In The Galaxy” served as a nickname during that period.

The filings come following her recent release from WWE, and could indicate plans to revive her previous persona as she prepares for the next phase of her career. No official announcement has been made regarding her in-ring return or future promotion at this time.
