"The Wrestler" magazine makes no mention of copyright within its pages. It attributes its rights to "G.C. London Publishing Corp." London Publishing Corp is the same publisher behind the more notable Pro Wrestling Illustrated, still in publication today. "London Publishing Corp." wrestling magazines such as PWI did not begin properly attributing copyright until the year 2000. Likewise, publications in the same family of magazines such as "The Wrestler" also failed to correctly assign copyright.
