Before RAW, before Nitro, before the Monday Night Wars even became a thing, WWF Prime Time Wrestling (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WWF_Prime_Time_Wrestling) ruled weeknight television.
This was the show (https://www.thesportster.com/wwe/wwe-forgotten-moments-prime-time-wrestling/) where storylines simmered, feuds quietly evolved, and two legends, Gorilla Monsoon and Bobby “The Brain” Heenan turned a simple wrestling recap into must-watch TV. For years, Prime Time Wrestling (https://www.wrestlecrap.com/inductions/prime-time-wrestling-the-audience-era/) was the heartbeat of WWF programming, yet today, most fans barely remember it existed.
In this video, we break down the full story of WWF Prime Time Wrestling (https://www.theofficialwrestlingmuseum.com/wwf-prime-time-wresting-results.html), why it was created, how it shaped WWE’s future, what made it so different from modern wrestling shows, and why it eventually faded away. If you love old-school wrestling, forgotten WWE history, or the era before RAW took over, this one’s for you.

Next Wednesday, January 11th marks the 30th anniversary of Monday Night Raw; but this past Wednesday, January 4th (https://www.blogofdoom.com/2018/12/21/wwf-prime-time-wrestling-january-4th-1993/) marked another anniversary; the 30th anniversary of the end of Prime Time Wrestling (https://ringthedamnbell.org/the-wonderful-history-of-wwf-prime-time-wrestling/).

This episode covers the history of Prime Time Wrestling (https://www.cagematch.net/?id=8&nr=1&page=4&search=WWF+Prime+Time+Wrestling); from the start of the WWE/USA Network relationship, the beginning of the show with hosts fans wouldn't associate with the show, the start of Bobby & Gorilla, the PPV Preview episodes, The Bobby Heenan Show, the changes in formats, classic moments, episodes, & much more.
