IceCap Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 Not a bad take @Cujo I'm partial to this little known logo though. Used on the cusp of the Attitude Era, where it was clear there was a directional shift underway. You can see it too. The rougher Attitude Era "Raw" text, but it's still using the New Generation logo (which is actually my favourite WWF/E logo).

CS85 Posted February 5, 2021 Share Posted February 5, 2021 WWF's glorious 80's logo: Capital Wreslting Corporation (Vince McMahon Sr's company) logo from the 1950's: WWF In Your House from the 1990's is about as 90's wrestling as it gets: Random wrestler logos from yesteryear: WWF's briefly-lived weekend series, Action Zone: The Royal Rumble logo sometimes had minor revisions to reflect the locale, in this case, Tampa, FL: The old arching Survivor Series logo: It had a Texas flair for 1994: And who could forget the lovely King of the Ring logo: Quote "You are nothing more than a small cancer on this message board.

There had to be some inspiration for it, but it's just awful in every way. I think its discussed in Guy Evans Nitro Book: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07FJWS2XF/ref=dp-kindle-redirect?_encoding=UTF8&btkr=1 This was the choices they had with accompanying Nitro Logos proposed too.

They look so cartoonish for some, while some are really great for others. SNME used to have incredible logos that I've definitely posted before, but will do so again now: In searching for those, I found some I had never seen before: Someone was working overtime with Corel Draw! 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DG_ThenNowForever Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 The number-less ones are as forgettable as the current product. 11 is the worst. It looks like the logos I made on my pirated version of Photoshop 4.0 back in 1995. 1 hour ago, ShutUpLutz! said: and the drunken doodoobags jumping off the tops of SUV's/vans/RV's onto tables because, oh yeah, they are drunken drug abusing doodoobags Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The transition in aesthetics from New Generation to Attitude was weird, but that's when all the good stuff was happening.

Yeah...I think pop culture has sort of immortalized the best year(s) of WCW as 1997 and WWF as 1998-2000, but for my money 1995-1996 WCW and 1996-1997 WWF were the best. Both were examples of companies turning the corner with a lot of quality stuff, without the excesses that would come later. For the WWF? Austin and Hart beating the crap out of each other and Hart and Michaels basically telling each other to piss off on a weekly basis was more engaging than s and ass and McMahon family drama everywhere.

The_Admiral Posted February 6, 2021 Share Posted February 6, 2021 Yeah, it was sort of like a band doing its best stuff early and then going mainstream. 1998-1999 was too much McMahons and too much Undertaker. Things picked up when Russo left and they started getting new toys to play with: Angle, Jericho, Benoit, Guerrero, Rikishi, et al ♫ oh yeah, board goes on, long after the thrill of postin' is gone ♫ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

midnight.oil Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Owen Hart's "Black Hart" logo that he used after the rest of the Hart family left for WCW. I liked it so much I almost got it as a tattoo, especially after he died. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old School Fool Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 One of my favorite weird logo things is the original logo that Stone Cold Steve Austin had. He wore it on his very first vest for most of 1996 after he won King of the Ring until he got his trademark vest style that everyone knows. I saw this logo on a weird WWF trading card too. Also believe it or not, he wore this logo on the back of his tights! This was for like maybe 2 matches or something so it's pretty rare to find footage of it. I got a terrible screenshot when I first saw it but it gets the point across. Also here is Stone Cold in a 3:16 Patriots jersey just because.

BadSeed84 Posted February 12, 2021 Share Posted February 12, 2021 Also 1997 to Wrestlemania 14 is my favorite time period for WWF easily like others said 97 (and 96 too) just felt, no pun intended, raw with what they were doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
