Has WWE ever mentioned anything about how they used to be WWF besides maybe the first couple RAWs after they changed the name?

Not that I really recall. I could be wrong, but I don't really remember them ever doing that.

The best example - and the last that I can recall - was during Heenan's 2004 Hall of Fame acceptance speech when he called it WWF (and it was comically bleeped out on the DVD) -- and then went off on how a company that employed snakes, bulldogs, junkyard dogs, parrots, dragons (and many others) and 2 commentators who were a gorilla and a weasel couldn't call themselves the WWF. Heenan became a certifiably GOD that night, my friends.  |

It's always been WWE, you fools!

I've been a believer for years, but even the most negative bastichs were silenced that day. |

In the Rock/Triple-H/Kurt Angle match on "The History Of The WWE Championship" DVD, the censors missed Lawler calling it the WWF Championship early on in the match.

Has WWE ever mentioned anything about how they used to be WWF besides maybe the first couple RAWs after they changed the name? When they first changed over, they had the little ad campaign "Get teh F out", and then, pretty much aside from the odd slip up, its always called WWE now. Pay attention whenever they show older clips...I'm always seeing distortion wherever there is obviously a WWF logo. |

Jerry Lawler said WWF instead of WWE at the recent Saturday Nights Main event. I cannot remember the place it happened but it did happen!

I don't know if it was a dvd or occasional announcer moment, but I think I heard JR often refer to past champions as "the then WWF champion" or "WWF} champion at the time" emphasizing the F. Usually he'll bring it up like when he's legitimately talking about the past like when he'll bring up "the then WCW title" or "WWWF".

Shawn Michaels said it on his first RAW back in 2002,when he was with the nWo,but then said "sorry,I mean WWEEEEEEEEEEEE",and then The King goes "that's right,get the F out".
