'''Nicknames:''' "The Recognized Symbol of Excellence", "WWF in Space"


'''Logo:''' Against a space background, the two halves of the WWF logo come from the top and the bottom of the screen with orange "shadow" effects, cross each other's path, then merge to form an outline of the logo (which is a stylized "W" that is "divided" to look like two W's," and also has two protrusions at the upper right for an "F"). Rainbow-colored lasers cross the logo filling it with a gold color that turns silver after they're gone. Beneath, the words "WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION" fly inwards one by one from the bottom of the screen, in white font and with the shadow effect. The logo "shines".

'''Nicknames:''' "What the World is Watching", "WWF in the Sky"


'''Logo:''' A silver-gray, three-dimensional WWF logo with no details flies across a landscape of rivers and mountains. It rises up, and the background is now an orange and purple sky. Lightning strikes the logo, adding the silver details, first to the first "W", then the second, and finally the "F".

'''Nicknames:''' "3D WWF", "WWF Goes Nuclear"


'''Logo:''' In the twilight with the horizon, the WWF logo in a transparent blue 3D form, rises and turns to a 45-degree angle and comes closer to the camera as a glowing speck flies around the logo. The text "WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION" in a 45-degree angle zooms out in the Futura font.

'''Nickname:''' "The Monolith"


'''Logo:''' On a stone or ice floor against a cloudy black sky, a large monolith rises up, which has the WWF logo carved out of it and "THE WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION" written below on all sides. The camera pans around and stops facing up at one of the logos, with the sun in the top left shining.

'''Nicknames:''' "Red Sky", "The Rising WWF and Text", "WWF Box"


'''Logo:''' Against a cloudy red sky with lightning, several "THE WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION" texts circle around to the top of the screen and disappear, followed by a red and gold WWF logo from 1996-1998 (the WWF logo from before, only tilted and against a square, that is used "WWF In Your House" series) turning to face us, slightly facing the left. The text "THE WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION", curved at first, then straightening out, rises up from the bottom.

'''Nicknames:''' "Around the World", "Flying and Flashing Text", "WWF Box II", "Worldwide Leader"


'''Logo:''' Hard to describe, but it had some random images and text flying around and flashing (names of countries, languages, and several "5,000,000"'s) ending with a globe background, with some blue hexes, and another globe at the bottom left of the screen. The WWF logo from the previous logo appears, this time it is tilted towards the right, the square is blue, and the outline of "WWF" is blue as well. "THE WORLD WRESTLING FEDERATION" (with "THE" displayed over "WORLD") is shown below, along with the URL www.wwf.com.

'''Nicknames:''' "Attitude", "The Seizure-Inducing WWF Logo"


'''Logo:''' This one is hard to describe. We see a looped video of a neon Earth with a outlined sun, the bottom of a ring close-up, another Earth zooming in, crowds cheering and explosions which speeds up faster as time goes on, "#1 Worldwide Leader", "World", "Wrestling", "Federation", and other stuff like that are seen (the words "World Wrestling Federation" are not seen at the same time). The animation abruptly ends and "ATTITUDE" is seen for a fraction of a second, followed by a quick pan of the WWF logo (much like the original, but it seems like a 5-year old's scribble of the logo with a red line underneath). The WWF logo is stylized to have a harder edge, like their product, and is modeled after the Nike "swoosh".

'''Nicknames:''' "Ruthless Aggression", "Get The F Out" (referring to the WWE's slogan from early 2002)


'''Logo:''' We see a globe, with pictures of wrestling clips, and the brand logos of ''Raw'', ''SmackDown!'', ''Sunday Night Heat'', ''Velocity'', ''Afterburn'', ''Experience'', and ''Bottom Line''. These images are interspersed among crowd scenes like the last logo. Towards the end, "ATTITUDE" and "ENTERTAINMENT" appear for fleeting moments, then, a light pans across the WWE logo (exactly like the 1998 WWF logo, but missing the "F", and with the red line closer up). In reality, the WWE logo just has a W divided to look like two Ws, and with a red "swoosh" below it.

'''Nicknames:''' "The WWE Programs Logo", "The Power is Back"


'''Logo:''' We see a black-and-white clip of an old wrestling match from the early 20th century. It is later revealed to be on a TV screen in a large tunnel, with other screens displaying historic WWE clips (pertaining to things such as WrestleMania and Hulk Hogan). Eventually, we see a crowd scene, and the screen flashes. When the light disappears, we see the WWE logo at the bottom left on a black background, shining. "WORLD WRESTLING ENTERTAINMENT" appears next to the logo, glowing red for a brief moment.

'''Nickname:''' "Then, Now, Forever"


'''Logo:''' We start out with an overhead shot of the SunLife Stadium with fireworks, this eventually cuts to still shots of various wrestlers and other people in WWE's history. As the shots get faster the WWE logo zooms out halfway until the background flashes various arenas. The end result is the WWE logo to the left on a white background. "THEN" appears followed by "NOW" and "FOREVER" from the right center downwards respectively.

'''Nickname:''' "Then, Now, Forever II", "The WWE Hallway"


'''Logo:''' Starting off on a black background, slightly curved footage of Hulk Hogan slamming André the Giant from WrestleMania III rises up from the bottom of the screen. The screen begins to zoom out as various scenes from WWE's past begin to play and the word "THEN" appears above the scenes. The camera quickly turns to the right and goes down a hallway consisting of scenes from the past before rotating to the left once more. The screens are showing modern WWE footage as "NOW" rises up facing the right on the left center of the screen. The camera then quickly pans down another hallway showing more scenes. The camera stops than begins to zoom out to reveal that the hallways are in the shape of the current WWE logo. As it finishes rotating back, the "W"s turn white while the "slash" turns red. The word "FOREVER" rises from below as the WWE logo flashes. "FOREVER" flashes as the background turns dark blue.

'''Nickname:''' "Then, Now, Forever III", "The WWE Hallway II", "Then, Now, Together, Forever".


'''Logo:''' It starts in the same way as the previous opening, but with updated and additional images and footage from WWE's past, on the other hallway showing more scenes, "TOGETHER" rises up from the same position with additional modern footages showing the crowd and fireworks displays (whether indoor and outdoors, from WrestleMania), and when the WWE logo rotates from its same position, a light flashes with "FOREVER" following on it.

'''Nickname:''' "TWN", "Cheesy Wrestling"


'''Logo:''' A white screen appears with a black circle, which fades out to a blue/red/black gradient. As the white screen dissolves, we "TWN" with a star in between the "W" and "N" as well as "The Wrestling Channel". After that, the words "Distributed by" appears above the logo and, "copyright (Roman numeral for year)" underneath the logo. It might cut out (due to the network), or fade out.
