WWE — The "WWE" name has been solely used since 2011; it is an orphaned initialism that stood for World Wrestling Entertainment for the wrestling promotion, which is still the legal name of the company.
WWE divided its roster into five storyline divisions – referred to as brands where wrestlers exclusively performed on their respective weekly television programs. Raw and SmackDown were their two main brands. Specialty brand 205 Live, which separated from Raw to become its own brand following WrestleMania 34, was also featured on WWE's main pay-per-views. NXT served as a developmental territory, while specialty brand NXT UK was launched in July and promoted under the NXT banner.
