On the WWF DVDS they show the old school block logo so anything from 80's - mid 90s is great but than the WWF Attitude era logo is always blurred out, does anyone know why?

Part of the bizarre settlement with the Fund. The whole lawsuit pretty much stemmed from the WWF changing their logo to the scratch one and advertising themselves as the WWF overseas when they agreed to only go by World Wrestling Federation outside of North America.

I remember at first they were blocking out the 80s era WWF logo and they don't do that anymore. I don't know why Vince didn't somehow convince them with dollars to let them continue to be called the WWF, especially in the US..

It's just the scratch logo, because that's the one that prompted World Wildlife Fund for Nature to nag WWF/E to change the name.

Because he didn't wanted to give them money... that is why they changed they blurred the logo in the first place.

I wish they'd have given the Worldwide Fund For Nature a few million to keep the WWF and the fund could be called the WFN.
