AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR
Dead · Refused DEAD/APPLICATION/Refused/Dismissed or Invalidated
What this record means
The record shows that “AMERICAN NINJA WARRIOR” is an abandoned application (status dead) filed by Tokyo Broadcasting System Television, Inc., a corporation organized in Japan, and it never reached registration on the Principal Register; the USPTO marked it abandoned on September 7 2020 because no Statement of Use or extension was filed after the Notice of Allowance. The application covered a very broad list of food items in International Class 030—everything from bagel chips and bakery desserts to chocolate bars, frozen yogurt and granola—so a later use of the same wording on similar snack or confectionery products would create the closest record‑based concern. The record does not give the owner control over every possible use of the words “American Ninja Warrior,” especially outside the listed food categories. No Supplemental Register filing appears, and the prosecution history simply shows the usual notice‑of‑allowance and a series of extensions before the final abandonment. The supplied history contains no oppositions, cancellations or court actions, so no enforcement signal is visible. I'd treat this as a meaningful concern if you plan to market food or snack products under a similar name.
