With a new landscape of the company, comes a new look for both shows.
The General Managers of “Raw” and “Smackdown Live,” Mick Foley and Daniel Bryan respectively, each took to Twitter today to reveal the new logos for each of their shows:

#SmackdownLive is where Superstars are the feature & in-ring competition is the focus. #YesYesYes #NewEraNewLogo pic.twitter.com/ydTe4FYgLH

The previous logo for “Raw” had been in place since 2014, while the previous “Smackdown” logo had been used since 2015.
Editor’s Note:
I’m not sure how I feel about these new logos. The “Raw” logo looks kind of old school to me, and doesn’t have that pizzazz that grabs your attention the way that WWE is used to doing. The “Smackdown Live” logo is a little better, but also doesn’t just wow me with its visual appeal.
