The Dayton Daily News is reporting that independent wrestler Sharkboy (Dean Roll) has filed a lawsuit against Miramax, a Disney-owned company, claiming that his trademarked "Sharkboy" gimmick has been infringed upon. Miramax will be releasing the movie "The Adventures of Sharkboy and Lavagirl" this coming Friday.
Dean Roll filed his lawsuit on Tuesday in the U.S. District Court in Cincinnati, OH. Roll has a case as he trademarked the name "Sharkboy" at least five years ago and he appeared on some episodes of "WCW Saturday Night" in early-2000 in that particular gimmick. Video footage of his WCW Saturday Night matches would be perfect evidence for his case.
According to the newspaper article, "Roll wants the defendants, including Dimension Films, Troublemaker Studios and others to return any 'money, profits and advantages wrongfully gained' along with triple damages, attorneys' fees and expenses for bringing the action filed by Dayton attorney Thomas J. Intilli."
