A UDRP has been filed on the domain name BigBang.com by Javier Zetter Casillas
The domain name BigBang.com was originally registered back in February 1995 making it 19 years old.
The domain name changed hands a few times but has been owned by Vertical Axis, Inc since at least 2006.
The domain name is parked
Of course the most famous meaning of the term Big Bang refers to how some believe the universe was created.
However there is also a popular television show known as the Big Bang Theory and what seems to be a famous South Korean band by the same name.
The complainant in this case, Javier Zetter Casillas seems to have gotten a trademark for the term BIG BANG IDENTIDAD EMPRESARIAL in 2011/2012 and owns a trademark on the term “THE BIG STITCH COMPANY”
I have no idea of how either recently filed registration gives Mr. Casillas the idea that he is entitled to take ownership of a 19 year old domain and hopefully there will be a Reverse Domain Name Hijacking (RDNH).

Hopefully, the RDNH decision will be delivered with a ‘big bang’ as well.

Worth noting, bigbang.com sold in April 2006 foor 30,050.00 USD via SnapNames.
Then, how come one can trademark “Big Bang”. Can one also trademark “Universe” and “God” then?

Truly scummy behaviour from the complainant. RDNH has to be delivered.
stevearogge says
Too many of these UDRP’s being filed. People are abusing the system. This is complete BS. Definitely needs a RDNH delivered on this scumbag for putting the owner of the domain through this senseless crap.
Domainer Extraordinaire says
The irony is that Kevin likely doesn’t believe in the big bang theory.
