Logo descriptions and captures by Logophile


1st Logo
(1992-1993)
WCW (1992)WCW (1992 - WCW Worldwide)

Logo
: On a black background, lightning strikes, causing the 3-D bluish-purple "WCW" name (in its corporate font) to appear. After this, the letters smoke as
the name turns more violet before the logo fades out.

Variant: A version exists with
copyright info appearing underneath, reading "©(YEAR) World Championship Wrestling, Inc. All Rights Reserved".

FX/SFX: The lightning strike, the name appearing and smoking.

Music/Sounds: Lightning strike and it echoing.

Availability: Rare. Appeared on WCW programming from the time such as WCW Worldwide. Can be seen on Halloween Havoc 1992 on the WWE Network.

Editor's Note: None.



2nd Logo
(1999-2001)

Logo: On a black and blue background, a stylized star with some designs and the words "WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING" pans out from the under-right of it and rests in the middle of the screen. Blue lighting flashes underneath during the animation and glows around the finished product.WCW (1999-2001)

FX/SFX: The star, the lighting.

Music/Sounds: A quiet, eerie humming noise which calms down a bit at the end.

Availability: Seen on WCW programming and PPVs of the time-frame. The logo also makes a surprise appearance on the WWE '12video game during the "Road to Wrestlemania: Hero Story" campaign level.

Editor's Note: Dark backgrounds and eerie humming may not sit well with some, but at least there's no lightning and thunder.




Final Note: WCW didn't have any real on-screen logos between this time as their shows frequently ended with the title of the show and copyright info underneath.
