I believe that some how, some way...that WWE will go back to being the World Wrestling Federation in time for Wrestlemania 25.
Sure its unlikely in the minds of most people, but I just see it happening. I dont know exactly how it will happen, or what kind of deal the McMahons make with the wildlife people. I just have a strong feeling it will.
It would get Vince good publicity, and the ability to put over his product without having to sacrafice his own talent to some celebrity to get media attention.
It would give the fans and the wrestlers something to feel good about. The company gets its identity back and as a result, it motivates everyone.
It starts a new era, with a new identity. WWE since the name change has been pretty much set on cruise control, living off the attitude era, thinking the brand extension would be the launching pad...but it hasnt worked out that way.
I said before..this is a way out there prediction, and if I'm wrong, then i'm wrong...and wouldn't have a problem admitting it. But I have been thinking this for awhile now, and I had to share it with this board.
I welcome your feedback, negative or postive.

Or they become the World Wide Wrestling Federation and launch International brands. I never got way they didn't go back to this I thought WWWF wasn't that bad of a name anyway.

I know some people may not want them to switch names again now that WWE has been around for awhile, but I would love to see it. It still doesn't seem right to say WWE.

I LOVE DOUBLE DOUBLE F!
Anyway, I'd love to see the name revert back to the WWF. Do I see it actually happening? Not really. Vince seems to like emphasis on entertainment.

But he loves attention and money even more. And he could release stuff like "Wrestlemania X Seven: The Championship Edition" on DVD in its full glory...for the most part, surely that Limp Bizkit music gets taken out...but thats more of a positive. I've heard about that 3 disc Rock set coming out. And the amount of blurring on it is more than likely gonna cause people to wear Gorilla Monsoon type glasses while watching it. This is another positive of making a deal and taking the name back. |

How about World Wrestling Entertainment Federation, or WWEF for short. Pronounced "double you double you eff".

never going to happen, seeing as they are expanding into other areas of Entertainment(i.e films( the E part is pretty crucial. I think the WWE name is pretty well established now and I don't see why they would change back.

The parent name could still have entertainment in the name. It could easilly be World Wrestling Federation Entertainment again. But in terms of the wrestling shows it'd just be the World Wrestling Federation. Like I said..if it doesnt happen, it doesnt happen. I just have a strong feeling it will. |

They should have become World Wrestling Enterprise instead of World Wrestling Entertainment.

Wasn't World Wrestling Federation Entertainment always the actual company's name?

I still don't see how a small WWF logo on a turnbuckle is affecting the Pandas at all. WWF will always be associated with wrestling even if the name is currently WWE.

Seeing as how it's all about "entertainment" these days, and the term "wrestler" is hardly ever used on WWE TV (if at all), I'm surprised it's not "World Entertainment Federation" by this point.
