I think the WWE logo needs a new look. The current one looks fine but doesnt really represent the show well. I mean look at the old logos.

The Classic Golden WWF logo. Its bright and blue/gold and generally pretty friendly looking. It summed up the way the show was. Family oriented and bright colours etc.

The logo from the Attitude Era is sketchy and gives the impression of being more mature. Scratchy lines making up the logo and the way it was usually black and red and white. It looked messy and chaotic and some might say dark. Which the show was. Hardcore matches, satanic undead guys, crucificions, cursing, skimpy outfits and tons of "mature" gimmicks and stories.
The logo summed up the show well.

But now we have this:

Its basically the Attitude logo but with the F out. I don't think it suits the show well because what made the Attitude logo suit the show has been taken out more or less. Other than the skimpy suits which arent as bad as they used to be and for a brief time Muhammad Hassan, there is nothing "Attitude" about the show. Considering this is supposed to be a "New Era" anyway, why not redesign the logo?
I know a logo shouldn't matter but it does. People who see the classic gold logo on a tape will assume its going to contain colourful characters and the family atmosphere whereas people buying a video with the attitude logo will assume the tape will have the level of over the top violence and everything we had during that period. WWE needs a logo to sum up there new direction. There not going for the "mature" attitude route and there not exactly going back to guys like Doink,Repoman and Ultimate Warrior.

Any Ideas for what a new logo could/should be?

On the subject of logos, I like how they're using the classic logo without the F for their classic stuff. It was originally John Cena's Word Life logo (and I still think it is), but they've migrated it to their classics department.

I don't know about redesigning the logo. I honestly don't know how they can change it and make it look good. Because, remember, it also has to be a bug in the corner of the screen.

they dont and shouldnt have to change their logo- its become iconic - achieved the goal of any logo design ( i know what I'm talking about I'm a graphc designer)

Unless there's a tremendous uphieval or take over - like when wCw's logo changed when WWE raped and pillaged what was left.

I'd like to see a new one. But then again, I'm a fan of change.

I like the logo now and I think is just fine but I just like starting little discusions.

With all due respect, Ronnie, it looks like the W is for Warrior.... As in that one dude who the WWE is fuckin' bashing the hell out of because he wouldn't take part in a DVD about him...

It's not that he wouldn't take part, it's because they couldn't agree on it.

It's taken a while, and after many doodles and scraps during work, I've came up with this...

It's an E, but it looks crap with a third horizontal bar in there. If we're being really picky, it actually would read WVC

Jonster

Or WVL.

What? That wouldn't be an E WITHOUT the horizontal bar. It doesn't have three lines.

Actually, it looks very similar to the UFC logo and I never noticed. Bah, I guess subliminal advertising does work
