Go to the Friday schedule, they have an episode of Prime Time listed! It looks like theyre starting at 1986 though, so no luck if you were looking forward to the 1985 episodes.

When the 90's Prime Time Wrestling episodes are uploaded, my Network subscription will be forever justified.

After watching the 1987 slammys the other day this interests me greatly.
Am I right to assume the product at the time was basically a wrestling version of Wacky Races?

The earlier ones have Jesse Ventura and some guy I can't remember right now, but there are a couple on Old School. Not very good. That, and Jesse might come back and want more money. No, that guy isn't Gorilla.

So glad fhsse are going on. Prime Time was my favorite part of Classics on Demand, and it was a major letdown when the network didn't put those up. Any idea how many episodes are going up at first?

just a side story, I didn't have cable growing up in New York so my only access to Prime Time was when I would go on summer vacations to my grandparents' house in Florida. so I was lucky enough to catch the whole Piper/Heenan/Rude buildup to Summerslam 89 or it would have been quite confusing figuring out exactly why Piper came out when he did.

*Loud Sweating*
We're only a few steps away from "The Bobby Heenan Show" being on the network.

I started watching in early 86 after WM 2 when Jesse "disappeared" (to film Predator) and they tried guest co hosts for a little while-I remember Jimmy Hart getting 3 strikes from Gorilla and Bobby Heenan soon became the permanent co host with Monsoon.
I will probably watch episodes on Monday nights at 8pm in my attempt to recapture my youth/the 80s
