Legally, they have to.
Had to. They don't anymore for anything before the settlement.
The logo and audio is intact for all of the RAWs they put up, for example. If it was digitized during the on demand era or earlier though some of those still use the blanked out logo/audio nonsense.

They cannot say it in any new material.
They are still not allowed to use it in ANY new material. They can only use it in archived material.

Oh wow. Thanks guys.
Right, anything filmed before the settlement and name change. They use the WWE retro logo on old school RAWs and the like.
WWF has such a nice ring to it to.

They only are allowed to use it retroactively. Meaning they don't have to censor old stuff. They cut that deal a few years ago so they could archive footage for the Network faster. They still aren't allowed to use it in any new stuff, visually or audibly.

Are there any must listen to hall of fame speeches?
A comedy wrestling show?
Right, but that doesn't matter as they are the WWE now. All of their WWF footage is archival.

Blayze, Bushwhackers, and Nash all had fun speeches
Yes, but people are complaining that they are censoring when people say "WWF" at the Hall of Fame. I'm saying that they have to do that.
Steamboat is fucking nuts at Clash of Champions 17. He's just pure fucking energy in human form. Anderson looking at Zbysko in disbelief, 'He's just a man!' like he's trying to convince himself. Awesome booking for Steamboat's return. Still one of the best tag matches of all time and one of the best matches of that era.

There's one thing I've realised watching 80's WWF again... Tito Santana really was boring.
Please show me a link showing where Rey Mysterio died. Senior or junior. From the other day.
Based on my impressions from his podcast, I don't think he'll be doing anything significant with WWE again any time soon.
Tanahashi/Yano is the second best feud going.
Nuts to think these guys would be wrestling each other again nearly 10 years later. I forgot how Tanahashi's face looked before it got all haggard.

I looked at a little photo collection they have up on wwe's site, older stars getting together, etc.
I was kinda joking about it with Bret and Shawn's photo yesterday, but looking at these people reinforces the concept that I'm going to die one day. I'm probably closer to the end than the start at this point. Fuck, man.

Showcase of the Immortals theme song to get your juices flowing
And what's the name of that "OH-OH-OH! OH-OH-OH! WRESTLEMANIA! FIGHTING TO SURVIVE!" tune? I need that in my life today.
Oh shit, found it. Wrestlemania IX theme.

This will likely be the dumbest spot of WrestleMania weekend;
It's like that Arrow wall flip gif.

AR Fox sucks.
Too much association with Linda McMahon. The real theme. The only association that one has is Gorilla and Brain. As it should be.
Kairi Hojo won the STARDOM title. Spoilers.
Dragon Gate spoilers:
Tozawa is now the Owarai Gate champion, edging out Santa Maria in fan support in their match
:|. there's more and none of it makes me want to watch Dragon Gate.

i know i stoped watching wwf in 2000, i was a fan from 86-2000 golden years, i'm 29 now. this tilte theme makes me cry. now its all acting woman in wrestling in mud, etc not like bak then characters... long live forewer real true wrestling old school babe.
The music from this era in pro wrestling was fuckin' amazing! I hear this, the old themes for the rumble, survivor series and summerslam.... I get all excited just like I did when I was 12!! :-D Remember when Vince did all the voice overs to run down the card? His growly voice and this music playin' made us all beg the parents to get the PPVs!! I'm following WWE again and it's entertaining, but not like it used to be. Maybe that's because I'm not 12 anymore..... Bummer.. ;-)

The good ol days before Finger Showing, Curse words, Smelling what people was cooking, girls showing their breast in bare, drinking become a problem, and before blood shed. Yup this theme makes me feel like a child again, knowing I was born in before the 3 eras took place, being fortuante enough to see them all. I love you, and I hope if we could return back to one another, I'd take you with me. GOLDEN ERA >>>>>> ATTITUDE ERAAAAAA *Dances to the theme*

im feeling like brutis barber beefcake, and repoman combined , good times!
I'm watching the Hall of Fame and just saw the Connor induction and damn, it hit me hard. I mean I knew it would but it was really hard to watch.
It's true that they distorted Warrior's words to make this award but that's meaningless right now. What a beautiful homage. And, as someone who has seen this story from the start, it's really heartbreakingly sad and beautiful how this unfolded. From Warrior's wife great speech, to Bryan's recollection of the events (when he came out already crying I knew it was going to be hard to watch) to then Connor's father who was really brave to be there it was just overwhelming.
I know this is a very light thread but this Connor stuff has really gotten to me since the start and I just had to share this.
