New WWE logo debuting at Wrestlemania?

[Guest Deebo]

For some reason I keep thinking that I read not too long ago about Vince debuting a brand new WWE logo at WM. I can't remember whether it was from Meltzer or the Torch, but it was one of those two, I don't think it was posted on this board though. Has anyone else read about this or am I delusional?

[Guest]

Well, that would be a very good thing.

[Guest Choken One]

Nah...It was mentioned on one of the reports...Apprently It's Orange.

 

I'm banking it'll be Graffiti Style logo to reflect the recent Urban/Rap market they are trying to reach.

Bleh...unless it goes back to WWF I could care less

[RavishingRickRudo 0]

But the scratch logo is so in-style right now

 

They should have changed it after the F got out.

That would be a huge markout moment.

 

MSG would mos def start a "WWF!" chant.

The attitude era is over and a new logo should represent that...It's no big deal but I hope it's true.

 

Where it all begins again indeed!

I would mark if the banner over the ring dropped to reveal the WWF logo and Vince got on the mic and proclaimed "Fuck the pandas!"

It HAS to be a new-style block 'WWF' logo if this happens.

I'm just wondering...does this mean they'll be making new title belts to fit the new logo if they do this?

POLL TIME~!

 

Which would be more hideous?

 

ANYTHING orange, or a grafitti style logo?

The new logo will probably be urine yellow with a lime green outline and formed in a funky shape that makes it look like something a cat threw up.

 

Going by the t-shirts this company has been making, that seems the most logical form.

Exactly. The circumcised WW_ scratch logo sucks. Although having an "E" in it would piss me off just the same.

I think that they may have done it to kind of step down gradually from the Attitude logo, so to speak.

 

I mean, if they changed their logo/identity COMPLETELY on 5/5/02, then there would have been a lot of confusion among the public.

 

Imagine if they'd changed the name to, say, WCW and they used the red Alliance logo. People would be wondering for MONTHS, "Where'd the WWF go?" when they saw WCW shows in TV Guide.

 

Anyway, better to just chop off the F for a while, then make something more stylized. Just don't make a total change all at one.

I swear to god, I was watching a video game review show this week and the host said "WW" Smackdown and "WW" RAW.

 

Switching brand logos is a regularly hard thing to do, I think the WWE transfer would have actually made it _easier_ for them, considering they had to the perfect excuse to change it. Instead, they went with the long-passe scratch logo without the E which looked ridiculous.

[AndrewTS 0]

I guess the drastic change would be a bit too soon...

[Jobber of the Week 0]

FWIW, they've changed belts on short notice before.

 

The previous WWF title, which guys like Rock/Austin/HHH carried around in the late 90s, started off with a block logo on it (even though the scratch logo was already appearing here and there for the first time the next night) and then changed to scratch at about the same time the ring apron did.

I'm afraid of this change so I'll just call the worst case scenario: "WWE" in plain letters and a prominent picture of Vince's smiling mug. I wouldn't know whether to laugh or cry. Could you imagine Vince's face etched into every title belt?

[Guest wrestlingbs]

Knowing vince's track record, the next logo will be strangely similar to PETA's.

Anybody here good at searching through the US Patent and Trademark Office website? You might be able to dig up a prototype of the new logo there. I tried a couple searches, but couldn't come up with anything.

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

The Old school word life logo = new WWE logo

 

 

HOPEFULLY!!!!!!

[Guest Your Olympic Hero]

Bold prediction: no matter what the new logo is, the product will continue to suck.

Same here, and I just looked yesterday.

 

However, the WWE didn't register their current logo until 5/26/02, 3 weeks after they started using it.

 

WCW's 'Star of David' logo didn't get registered until 5/5/99, the day that they started using it.

 

So Vince could debut a new logo at WMXX and register it the next day without fear of somebody stealing the idea because it will have already been used in commerce.

Ladies and gentlemen, these are YOUR WWE logos. So if you hate them, blame yourself.

[Guest JumpinJackFlash]

I actually like that lime green one....for some reason. Maybe it's because it looks like slime...

[thuganomics 0]

Good idea....

 

as long as they don't let Jobber of the Week design it...

Those logos just made my night

It's like Gertner-vision. Will the logo be on all four corners?

Vlad Tepes, the Wolfman, and Frankenstein plus His Monster and will all join after this logo is unleashed

 

Then all the Goosebumps villains can join as developmental talent

Does that mean Freddy and Jason will be pulled up from the indies?
