Look you people are ignoring the fact that the Fund had the initials first and brand recognition is very important to any business. They have the right to not be confused with the World Wrestling Federation, since they owned the initials in the first place. They were the ones who helped out Vince by letting him keep the initials, with a few restrictions. Vince broke those restrictions and paid for it, to me thats sweet justice.

As for any payment, again you cant overstate the fact that the WWE is seem as so low brow that many companies dont want to have anything to do with them. So perhaps the WWF felt that $20 mil wasn't worth having people associate their product with Vince's (and many times I wouldn't blame them).

But anyone who blames the FUnd for the WWE having to blur out turnbuckles and whatnot, either doesn't know the whole story or is just being dumb and/or ignorant.


The WWF didn't screw the WWE...The WWE screwed the WWE.
