It's how the DMCA system works. Get mad at @UMG They made the claim and confirmed it's not false. The creator appealed now its back to @UMG.

Notice the webmaster/host must follow this to not be held liable.
Yes, if WB believed they owned something it would be valid. But in order to support that belief they would have to have some kind of copyright. If their belief was something that obviously they don't own they would get sued for falsely using the DMCA takedown system.

do they own the content if it falls under fair use?

We don't know if it falls under fair use until a court decides it. Obviously we can see how the court would most likely rule here, but we don't have to, because it seems UMG will sue the content creator or drop it. Thus proving if it was fair use or not.
