 My reading is that Matt was basically extorting WP Engine and the trademark thing is just a post hoc justification.

 how did he do that? 
it looked to me reasonable that they should not mis/abuse the WP trademark.

 It has been extortion. Demanded 8% of revenue paid monthly. Also forbid forking. Check the term sheet. Matt is a psychopath.
