Guest Report post Posted April 27, 2002 well, I was gonna start calling it WCW anyway.... I mean c'mon, did you see Raw? I half expected to see Bradshaw run through the crowd with his ribs taped up and give the bad guys Diamond Cutters. That would be the Best....Nitro.....EVERRRR!!!!!!!!

The "WWE" would seem weird. Ask most people what "WWF" stands for and I bet 99% of them would say the World Wrestling Federation. Wonder how the hell the panda-huggers are beating Vince... hmmm..

Guest Tony149 Report post Posted April 27, 2002 Wonder how the hell the panda-huggers are beating Vince... hmmm.. I think that's due to the case being handled overseas (UK?). If the case was being handled in the U.S., Vince might stand a chance, IMO. As for the WWE name....it sounds weird. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted April 27, 2002 They can put their money where their mouth is and use their RAW and Smackdown brands as titles, if they are in fact two seperate brands (yeah right). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Risk Report post Posted April 27, 2002 He could always use the WCW name. AHAHAHAHAHA! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 27, 2002 IF (and a big IF) they are smart they will just use World Wrestling Federation Entertainment. Its put out there enough so fans know what it is. I freaking hate those damn hippies though, Greenpeace, WWF (animal version) all of them. Some one should go and fucking burn down a house with them all those motherfuckers in it and use natural wood (or fuck it and just dump good old gasoline over the bastards) so we wouldn't be ruining the enviroment and since fire is a part of nature we can ask "How does it feel to get closer to nature?" While they are becoming extra-tasty crispy (TM KFC). I like animals and care about the enivroment but those assholes just really piss me off. Really fucking piss me off.

This is totally off-topic, but I had to say something. I'm a member of Greenpeace, and I'm hardly a hippy. As for the World Wildlife Fund, they've got some dirty secrets that aren't so secret anymore: http://www.peta.org/feat/greenwash/wwf.html I support the World Wrestling Federation in their case, because I think it's a stupid thing to go to court over even if WWFE did break whatever agreement that they had with the WWF so many years ago. Regarding the WWE trademark. It's way too odd. It doesn't "roll off the tongue" so to speak. Even WWFE is better than WWE. If they have to change the logo, why not keep it WWF, and then have a tiny 'e' somewhere in there. MAD magazine does it, kinda. M(ind)AD. Blah, whatever. Like it even matters. What's the point of supporting WWFE anyways? Their product is shite. They give their fans no credit. And to think this was once the company who told US that WE were tired of having OUR collective intelligences insulted. Pathetic. Oh, and MrRant, I think you seriously need to check into your testosterone intake. It may be getting out of hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Hogan Made Wrestling Report post Posted April 27, 2002 1. This only has to do with marketing overseas. They can still call it the WWF on air and anywhere in the USA, so don't expect that to change. 2. The big change is going to be that they have to change their website address from wwf.com (although I don't know how it affects others such as wwfsuperstars.com and wwfshopzone.com since there is obviously no chance of confusion there). It wouldn't be all that hard to go from wwf.com to wwfe.com by using an auto-redirect for a few weeks and mentioning it on the air. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest HartFan86 Report post Posted April 27, 2002 If they change it, I'm still calling it the "WWF" and "World Wrestling Federation" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest pinnacleofallthingsmanly Report post Posted April 27, 2002 What is the mission statement of the World Wildlife Fund? While I doubt animal-testing should be a practice that a wildlife foundation would support. I guess if they are only supportive of wild animals, they wouldn't care about lab animals, but I still think it doesn't make sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 27, 2002 Could you imagine what it would sound like for someone like let's say HHH say "I am the World... Wrestling... Entertainment... champion" It just doesn't sound right, and in my opinion, will never sound right. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Risk Report post Posted April 28, 2002 Maybe Vince will just drop the wrestling part in the name call it "North American Sports Entertainment." Or some shit like that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Anglesault Report post Posted April 28, 2002 They can't call it WCW. That just won't work. And in Vince's mind, that's letting WCW win. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest the living legend Report post Posted April 28, 2002 It wouldn't shock me a bit if it became WSEF (World Sports Entertainment Federation). Of course I'd go with WWFe because most fans would reconize that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How the fuck was Raw like Nitro? Just becaise its bad doesnt mean its Nitro. Regarding the WWE trademark. It's way too odd. It doesn't "roll off the tongue" so to speak. Even WWFE is better than WWE.

Guest Caliban Report post Posted April 28, 2002 I think they'll just use WWFe. As a little experiment, I tried www.wwe.com in the browser, and got nothing. However, www.wwfe.com automatically redirected me to wwf.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 29, 2002 I think I read somewhere that the Judge stated something along the lines of "The World wretling federation had virtually no arguments worth considering" when he handed out the judgement. Paraphrasing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
