The extra W stood for wide? Now that is s stupid name. World Wide Wrestling Federation? Isn't worldwide one word? I guess if all your wrestlers were really fat it would make sense.
Let me tell you what I'm gonna do when Hulkamania runs wild on me. I'm gonna beat you down like the bitch that you are.
World Wide Wrestling Federation beats World Wrestling Entertainment that's for sure. And bravo to Hogan for screweing Vince in the steroid trial and then coming back 10 years later to pull off being the last WWF champion. But he's still old.

That will go down as the final WWF Heavyweight Championship match in history ...
Now I am glad I didn't go to that or the Lowell show.
It takes a big man to cry, but it takes a bigger man to laugh at the man.

Uhh... Hogan wasn't exactly the best witness for the federal government, dude.
Nah, Vince and his lawyers out-heeled (trademark:Steve Corino) the US Government to get out of the charges. But if they hadn't Hogan would've gone down as the Judas of the wrestling world at Vince's crucifixion. Of course this was back before Vince's lawyers could get their asses handed to them by pandas.
Austin is NOT guaranteed creative control in his contract. NOBODY in the WWF is. That was a big sticking point a couple years ago. WCW had guys using their creative control left and right.
