* Surprisingly on November 15, 2010, this logo was spotted on ''WWE Monday Night Raw'' as part of the WWF special old-school tribute, but the word "FEDERATION" was crossed off in red, replacing it with "ENTERTAINMENT". | * Surprisingly on November 15, 2010, this logo was spotted on ''WWE Monday Night Raw'' as part of the WWF special old-school tribute, but the word "FEDERATION" was crossed off in red, replacing it with "ENTERTAINMENT". | ||
* On the March 4, 2013 "old-school" episode of ''Monday Night Raw'', a variation of this logo was used. The logo was remade with present day computerized graphics. The "F" was removed from the logo, and "THEN. NOW. FOREVER." replaced "WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION". The logo was also used on the January 6, 2014 "old-school" edition of ''Monday Night Raw'' and will most likely be used on future "old-school" tributes. | * On the March 4, 2013 "old-school" episode of ''Monday Night Raw'', a variation of this logo was used.

'''FX/SFX''': The flying words and logo parts; and the laser effects. | '''FX/SFX''': The flying words and logo parts; and the laser effects. | ||

'''Music/Sounds''': A 1980s guitar-driven pop/rock instrumental, kind of something you'd expect to hear opening an MTV program during that time. Some laser zaps are heard when the details are added onto the WWF logo, and "whooshes" are heard when the words zoom out below. An announcer says "The recognized symbol of excellence in sports entertainment" near the end. | '''Music/Sounds''': A 1980s guitar-driven pop/rock instrumental, kind of something you'd expect to hear opening an MTV program during that time.

'''Music/Sounds Variant''': Sometimes, a dramatic synth tune is used instead, with no announcer. Laser zaps are heard when the lasers shoot at the logo, and "whoosh" sounds are heard when the logo and text appear. This was used in WrestleMania III, for one. | '''Music/Sounds Variant''': | ||

'''Availability''': Seen on USA and syndicated WWF shows of the time period. You may see it on an old video. Was quite common in the early 2000s, when the WWF repeated episodes of ''Wrestling Challenge'' on TV. Was most recently seen on the ''WWE Greatest Rivalries: Shawn vs. Bret'' DVD in portions, and in full on the November 15, 2010 episode of ''Monday Night Raw''. The "THEN. NOW. FOREVER." variant appeared at the start of both the March 4, 2013 and January 6, 2014 "old-school" episodes of ''Monday Night Raw''. The silent variant is extinct as it was only seen on ''Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n Wrestling'', which hasn't been re-aired in years. | '''Availability''': Seen on USA and syndicated WWF shows of the time period.
