WCW Saturday Night
''WCW Saturday Night'' was a weekly Saturday night TV show on TBS produced by World Championship Wrestling. The program existed through various incarnations under different names before becoming ''WCW Saturday Night'' in 1992. Although initially the anchor show of the Ted Turner-backed wrestling company, the September 1995 premiere of ''WCW Monday Nitro'' airing on sister station Turner Network Television usurped the show's once preeminent position in the company, as the primary source of storyline development and Pay-Per-View buildup.
The show's place in the company was further devalued by the advent of ''WCW Thunder'' in 1998, airing on TBS and providing the secondary wrestling and storyline development that ''WCW Saturday Night'' had produced in the wake of ''Nitro'' burgeoning three-hour-long format. Once the cornerstone of the WCW wrestling empire, ''WCW Saturday Night'' ended its run in 2000 as the company struggled creatively to meet the demands of producing over six hours of new broadcast material on a weekly basis. The rights to ''WCW Saturday Night'' now belong to WWE as a result of that company's 2001 purchase of selected assets of WCW (including its video library).
==History==
''WCW Saturday Night'' premiered on April 4, 1992 as the showcase for the company's top talent. It grew out of two previous wrestling programs on TBS - ''Georgia Championship Wrestling'', which began on the station (then known as WTCG-TV) in January 1972 and ran under that name until August 1982, when it became ''World Championship Wrestling''. In addition, there was also a Sunday edition of ''World Championship Wrestling''; however, in later years, Sunday editions became infrequent. In spring 1988, TBS replaced the Sunday edition with a new Sunday wrestling show called ''NWA Main Event''.
In all of its incarnations, ''WCW Saturday Night'' would normally air for two hours. During baseball season, however, it would typically air for one hour, to be immediately followed by an Atlanta Braves game.
