It fits in with "today's world" and all that. Good change.

When the network fails they can have a new logo and a campaign to get the fucking network out

I think it's slick.
Also, why will the Network fail? Not even saying I disagree, but I'd like to know why you feel that way. |

The interwebs are saying the network is losing money. So that's why people are saying it might fail.

All new technological endeavors lose money their first (or couple) of years. Nothing new there.
Also, because Droford hates the world it seems. |

At some point I think they'll drop being able to watch current PPVs for the $10 price but offer a ppv add on package. Probably drop the cost of PPVs to get back on satellite and cable.. |

They arent losing money on the Network, it is just making alot less than they hoped. Thats two different things.
They also made less on their new TV deal than expected, but still more than they were. This led to a stock price drop to correct their over growth, and thus they are now making cuts to improve their profitability to raise the stock price back up. But thats totally the same thing as bleeding money. Good job Droford! |

I think losing $750 million in 2 months qualifies as bleeding and the network's performance is a primary cause..

Where did you get that number? The company didnt lose 750 million dollars in two months. Vince McMahons net worth dropped based on the stock price drop...
Once again these are different things and you are showing a complete lack of understanding on the topic. |

I remember reading $250 mil somewhere, but again that was in reference to net worth.

Yeah, Vince owns 52% of the WWE and losing $750 million in 2 months means nothing to the company itself.

I read, I think it was in USA Today, that they "expect to lose $40-52 million on The Network this year."
Not sure that counts as bleeding money, however. |

Back to the main intention of the thread, I like the logo. Its better than the wwe scratch logo. The inclusion of the word network is dumb though. The company isn't WWE Network. |

Logo is nice and something that should have been done years ago or at least once the brand split era ended.

I'm somewhat surprised at the positive reaction the possible new logo is getting.
I thought most people here would be against it. But much like you guys, I also like it. It's clean, crisp and it shows that the company is changing with the times. The more I look at it, the more I like it. I hope though, that along with the new logo, comes other positive changes. Maybe the new logo will come into force around the same time Roman Reigns pretty much becomes "the guy" and Cena slowly (and I mean slowly) leaves the spotlight. He's thirty-seven years old and he's not getting any younger, but he can still go like a beast. Though it will be a bit sad to see the "scratch logo" go, as It's been kicking for around seventeen years, with and without the F. |

I see this thrown around a great deal but no one who throws these numbers around bother to mention that over the past 5 years the stock is down DOLLAR.... and since last year is actually UP a Dollar

WWE is a billion dollar product that losing that much wont put them out of business, And once again most of this is stock releated. WWE network costs are much lower than these people are lettting on |

New logo works great for the network, sure, but I think it'd look pretty gimped down in the lower-left of the screen. Guess I've just become so acclimated, so accustomed even to both the WWF and WWE scratch logo that in a way it kind of feels like saying goodbye to an old friend, that is if this proves true.

I wonder if they will create a new title belt to represent the WWE World Heavyweight Championship or just edit the current ones?

They kind of gave it away when they did the WM31 press conference and hype videos and it only used the new network logo.
