What was the point of changing the World Wrestling Federation if the World Wildlife Fund doesn't even advertise enough to merit it?

I have never seen a World Wildlife Fund commercial ever...ever.

I still loathe saying "world wrestling entertainment" because it doesn't fit as the name of a "sport company" (neither does TNA for that matter).

Thoughts?

Know it woulda been more letters but they should have used the same abbreviation that they use in the stock exchange that being WWFE I would have preferred this.

I have seen WWF commercials. It really isn't a huge deal, though. If you haven't gotten over it by now, I suppose you never will.

I'm with you on this one DDTS! I can't stand it either, it just doesn't sound right or flow well at all. Another thing I hate is the "WWE Universe" bullshit, but I suppose that's for another thread.

I'm not for or against the Universe. I just hate insidiously bad grammar.

"Welcome to the Entertainment" or "I won the World Entertainment Title" or "You will never wrestle in the Entertainment again!"

Yeah, it's still a noun but it's a noun that doesn't work in many, if any, situations. Again, neither does TNA. Total Nonstop Action World Title...ridiculous.

True, I hate TNA too. There needs to be some form of world wrestling and organization involved in the initials if you want to be a global enterprise I think

People really won't get over it.

There are current WWE fans who were not even alive when they were the WWF.

Think about that one.

They spared no expense in the P.R. department to make damn sure they could make as big a public spectacle as they could of the name change...
