“Apple” (the company) has trademarks such as the word “Apple”. And it only works in context of computers. Competitors in example can’t name themselves “Apple”, but you can have in a different buisness than computers a name that contains “Apple”, such as “Apple Hill Cider” or “Apple Leisure Group”. That would not violate the trademark. Trademarks are only a problem if its in the same business.

Wrestling is not videogames (although there are videogames of it) and therefore cannot be confused with a videogame. So this could workout in theory.
