Also what are the costs, and what happens if someone uses your copyrighted name? Thanks :)

I know if they use their real name when working in a certain promotion they can use it in other promotions, but what if they use a pseudonym? Do they have to copyright it themselves in order to use it in other promotions? Does that "rule" apply to everyone, especially if they are working for WWE? I already know that the Dudley Boyz had trouble with the whole copyrights thing and they can't use the Dudley Boyz name in TNA.
