WCW Saturday Night (U.S. Syndicated Program)

This is based on the fictional WCW, not the defunct wrestling organization. WCW Saturday Night is a weekly Saturday night wrestling show airing in syndication The series is the flagship of the recently relaunched World Championship Wrestling, which is owned by Adelphia Communications after purchasing the rights of the organization from Time Warner, and the rights of the WCW brand from World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE still owns the WCW Library). The original series aired on TBS from 1992 until 2000. The series is usually a 1-hour or 2-hour episode. After purchasing the rights of the company and the brand, Adelphia announced plans to relaunch the series for syndication as a 1-hour episode series. Adelphia then hired Scott Hudson and Mike Tenay, who hosted the original version from 1995-2000 as the commentary team for the series, with SoCal Val (formerly of Total Nonstop Action) handling interviews backstage.
