Maven was not only the first guy to take an F5 from Lesnar in WWE but also one of the last guys to be there during the final show of WWF before the name change of WWE. This man has made history of himself.
The last time the WWF Scratched logo was featured on wwe TV is crazy enough 2023. Bad Bunny randomly showed up on a Smackdown wearing a sweet wwf Racing jacket that would later be blurred.
Hi Maven! I'm from Brazil and I started watching WWE in 2008. I never had the chance to see your wrestle live on TV, but today I can say that your channel are one of my favorites on UA-cam, your personal experiences that you tell us about the wrestling business is fascinating. Keep posting more bangers man! 🔥
Some suggestions for future videos: 1. Breakdown of your match against Christopher Nowinski on Raw in 2002 that nearly got you fired. 2. The story of how you were selected to be a part of the 2004 Survivor Series main event.
@@itsEFlyXhe should have joined Evolution imo and took ortons place, he also could have won the Ic championship instead of carlito and feuded with flair over the belt.
I’ll be honest, when I first started following your channel over a year ago, I didn’t know how far you would take it… but seeing the progress, and the things you’ve covered… I’m amazed! Keep up the hard work, Maven ❤️
I always wondered why World Wildlife Fund waited so long to file a complaint. The website domain name makes a lot of sense. Thanks for answering that question. I enjoyed the video.
I think the world wildlife fund had been fighting against the wrestling using WWF for a long while. I think the first agreement the two companies came to was in the early 90's but Vince kept stretching the rules of the agreement further and further until the wildlife people had enough and took the final action.
Same here, I resent the World Wildlife Fund for them acting so childish over the abbreviation use. It was extremely idiotic, like how they can act at times!
@@trendmassacre8423 Man I totally agree with you and second that. They could of easily parted with WWF and gave it to Vince because how much work everyone put in behind that name. It feels like the Wildlife Fund just wanted to capitalize off of WWF success.
I think that changed when the network launched. But I remember every DVD match compilation release had the WWF logos blurred which was annoying because that logo was EVERYWHERE in the arenas.
They didn’t get the rights to not blur it until around when the Network first came out. DVDs from before then are so irritating to watch. That logo was Everywhere.
I remember watching Insurrextion. I knew the territory days were truly over when they stopped using the WWF name I fell in love with during the Monday Night wars. I am still not used to saying “WWE” even after 20+ years. It was a sad day. At least the boys under the WWF banner had one last memorable hurrah on the plane ride back.
I can’t explain why, but this time in the WWF was incredibly special to me, therefore this video means a lot. Thanks to you guys and everyone who gave footage and photos. Seriously, thank you.
Fun fact: the last ever televised show (pretaped) under the “WWF” name was Sunday Night Heat on May 5th, 2002. The last image before the screen went black was Trish Status in the ring. The first “WWE” Raw went live the next night. The house show that Maven talks about happened the same night.
Thanx for remembering & reminding us. Psst.. for fun, look up WWF last show (Smackdown) on the UPN network. The ending, is one of Vince McMahon masterpiece(s). They moved to the CW for a bit after that.
Legendary arena for WWF/WWE when it opened in 1982 and Mic Foley won his first WWF title there in January 1999 where it sold out putting 14,000 butts in the seats. Sorry Tony Schiavone.
I never thought about the fact that the roster just instantly loses the ability to wear the branded merchandise! I'm sure a few guys in the locker room had to reset the WHOLE wardrobe lol
I remember everything WWF was on clearance. I bought a lot merch around that time, even video games with the Logo were on clearance and replaced with WWE. Just Bring It and Shut Your Mouth were two that I was able to grab on clearance.
I remember watching a clip of a Kurt Angle segment after the change and he was still wearing his shirt with the WWF logo showing on the back. I think it was on SmackDown
Maven, you helped bring me back to wrestling fandom! My brother is autistic and absolutely loves and obsesses over Wwe and now that I’ve found interest we have something to bond over and talk about.
@SKUNK_FPS_Clips I too have an autistic brother, and we used to kinda bond over wrestling. Emphasis on kinda because we hated each other's favorites and would fight. He was a Bret/Rock/Austin stan and I'm an HHH (and Kliq) fan, who he hates with a passion.
Thing is, the WWF could still operate under that name in the United States, just not internationally. But surprise! Vince thought he could do what he wanted and so the Fund put their foot down in court and forced the name change.
You've outdone yourself, Maven. This is next level production quality. Thanks for telling us this story and really taking us on a journey! More of this, please.
Cool! You got some footage that you were looking for! That’s cool man! As a teenager, I remember seeing WWF logos and thinking ‘huh, World Wildlife Fund uses the same acronym as WWF’. Thought nothing more. But I would understand this could be a problem. So when they DID actually do the name change, I thought “wow, they actually had to change it.” WWE didn’t seem to roll of the tongue like WWF did. To me, still doesn’t I would begin to find the show to not have the same pizazz when they bought out the competition, and I would begin to lose interest in watching around this time. I would’ve been 18 when they changed the name. And I think the last show I would watch was the Raw/Smack Down draft. What I DO enjoy watching of wrestling is looking back, at Bret Hart being way better than HBK, remembering when Stone Cold was truly Bad to the Bone. And hearing stories from yourself, or The Undertaker, Buff, Nash, and the list goes on.
I’m sure that if you go back to the first few shows of the WWE, some wrestlers still wore shirts that had the WWF logo on it. I still remember the commercial where the lady cuts a plant in the shape of the early 90’s WWF logo, cuts off the F and burns it into the then scratch WWE logo.
@@London.Bridgez the titles did too. I remember. Which sucked as well because before the World Heavyweight Championship, they just made the undisputed Championship belt at the time with the WWF logo
I absolutely love and enjoy this channel. Personally when I see a notification for a maven video and I see less then 15 minutes I feel slightly disappointed. lol
Because of a letter change? Lol. Attitude era fanboys have even started to claim 2003 and 2004 as Attitude era. Guys please just say RA era was the superior era, is it so hard to admit?
@TheMasterofDisaster48 you probably weren't even old enough to experience this time, and nobody claims 03/04 as the Attitude era. The Ruthless Aggression era was good for a few years, but by 06, it had nothing going for itself.
Fun Fact: When WWF logo retired so did the attitude era. Thus the born of the Ruthless Aggressive Era began after that show that Maven is talking about.
Man, Maven’s content is great. I’m a 20-30 minute video fan and these shorter ones just don’t quite do it for me. Request for 20+ min videos if the algorithm permits.
@@daltonio6001 I think that’s fair. Unnecessarily stretching things out is definitely not the move, but this really didn’t feel like it did the topic justice. How much more material could be mined from “I wrestled the final WWE show”. Who all was on the card? What were specific memories he has? Did he talk with someone about their thoughts on the name change? It’s a hell of a premise, and the surface was barely scratched. I’m saying this in earnest; as someone that would’ve loved to hear about those things. It’s not being said in bad faith to shit on his channel. I really enjoy his perspective.
This was fantastic to watch. It is great to see you at arenas and then the photos/videos from the actual event. I can't believe it has been that long. I remember the "Get the F out" media campaign at this time too. Great video Maven!
Maven needs to get Tori Wilson in for an interview and break down the fling angle they had back in the day! It was nice seeing her back in her glory days at 6:28
I still call it WWF to this day. All the younger WWE fans that I know always look confused when I say WWF. I still can't get used to it . Excellent video Maven as usual!
Glad you found the footage you asked for. Man I wish i could’ve seen it live. My first wwe show I was an adult and I took my son we were the same age for that little bit of time lol
As a kid I was heartbroken how could the wwf be over I refused to call it wwe to this day me and some freinds or just simply guys from my childhood era we refer to it as wwf it was also the time a lot in my generation stop watching because around this time it took a different direction and rock and stone cold left which were our heros we never liked John cena lesnar or any other guy trying to be sold to us true WWF attitude era fans left with that era Thank you so much maven for walking us through with details how that final wwf night was
I like the change-up in this video compared to your past videos, especially the introduction. Nothing wrong, of course, with the past videos. It's just a breath of fresh air.
In his defense, I wished locations would go ahead and spell it the way they want it pronounced. I still call New Orleans, New Orleans, not New-Or-lens. I call Arkansas, Arkansas, not Ark-can-saw. I call Baltimore, Baltimore, not Baldamore, like most Baltimoreans do. I say Maryland, not Meryl-land, like many Baltimore people say it.
You know what, the name change from WWF to WWE made so much sense, as wrestling was no longer seen as a serious ballgame, it has embraced the sports entertainment identity so much. Oh, and you are the best WWE UA-camr in town, as you were a legit WWE Superstar who fought against other Superstars and witnessed the transition. Hope you make it to the Hall of Fame!
Wow my home city. Wished I knew you were around. Hope you got to see Polar Park home of the Worcester Red Sox which was voted best ballpark in AAA. This is also the same arena where Mick Foley won his first WWF title in the sold out arena. Tony Schiavone was so wrong. There were 14,000 butts in the seats that night. And speaking of Polar Park they are hosing wrestling there for the first time this Friday with Kevin Nash and Sting who will be there.
I live 10 minutes up the road from the DCU center i did not know that the last wwf show was there. That would have been cool to see you outside there today to!!
Thank you to Nigel Sellars, Scott Lessard, Tom Nelson, and everyone who reached out to help us find pictures and footage for this video!
Thanks for being so cool Wednesday at BLP! I hope the wood art was to your liking.

Yeet
Maven have you ever considered doing commentary or broadcasting for WWE? ya got the voice for it brotha!
I was at the FIRST EVER WWE Event, WWE InsurreXtion at Wembley Arena
Can't believe he actually got the footage, wrestling fans are amazing.
Oh yeah most dark matches in the past 25 years are on tape most are on youtube
The footage shown in the video is actually from the show in Sunrise, one day before the last WWF show in Worcester.

He said nobody could use wwf stuff the next day while every belt still had the wwf logo😂
Also wrestled cm punks first Mach
And his name rhymes with Raven too. Can’t forget that.
@@mixemup.cuz making new titles is actually needs time plus its so sudden they are not prepared unlike the logo change 10 years ago

Maven, your way of story telling is really something else. Takes me back to the good old days of the earlier WWE.
Great video. Getting to see the location, clips, and card really enhanced the storytelling.

Wow my home city. Wished I knew you were around. Hope you got to see Polar Park home of the Worcester Red Sox which was voted best ballpark in AAA. This is also the same arena where Mick Foley won his first WWF title in the sold out arena. Tony Schiavone was so wrong. There were 14,000 butts in the seats that night. And speaking of Polar Park they are hosing wrestling there for the first time this Friday with Kevin Nash and Sting who will be there.
I would tell the World Wildlife Fund to F off and rebrand WWE back to WWF
This was another excellent episode. It was so cool that you were able to obtain the video and pictures from that night.
You have one of the best dropkicks of all time.
I live 10 minutes up the road from the DCU center i did not know that the last wwf show was there. That would have been cool to see you outside there today to!!
I would have bought Maven dinner at The Mercantile or taken him to a Woosox game.
I love Rare Footage Mav! WWF over WWE anyday!
The Smackdown brand had the honor of having the last WWF show in the States.
Got some pretty good footage! Shows you how much folks love some Maven!
Your drop kick is literally the best I’ve ever seen!
