- For the past ten years, video content from WWE's "Attitude Era" (1998–2002) has been edited due to a lawsuit with the World Wide Fund for Nature over the WWF initials. All WWF "scratch" logos and references to the initials had to be blurred or edited out. This directive has now changed, at least in part.
In regards to the former "scratch" logo appearing unaltered in video packages on Monday's Raw, multiple sources within the company say use of the symbol in flashback sequences is now permitted, so brief clips no longer have to be blurred. However, it is unclear whether the permission extends to complete matches and other archival footage. One source believes the company wants to develop a strategy to cease the logo blurring before the launch of the WWE Network.
:gladbron: Now dvd's with predominantly "Attitude Era" footage will be worth copping,

I'm sure they could've worked something out when all that shyt started, but when have you ever known Vince to admit defeat.

How can you sue someone for using a logo that just HAPPENS to have the same initials though? That's like suing someone for having the same chord progression as one of your songs.
