This is getting ridiculous, how about at least some variety like more Challenge or World Championship Wrestling or the old Championship Wrestling main show. I think like 10 of the last 15 or so updates have been Superstars

We'll see what happens when they get to the 1996 episodes that have Jake Roberts and Dustin as Goldust.

I think these Superstars episodes might just be performing better than other content. 1990s WWF and WCW is simply going to get more viewers than the AWA or Mid-South stuff.

I think adding Saturday Night from '96 or '97 might bring in more people than "WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELL DIESEL COOL UNDERTAKER SHAWN MICHAELS HEAAAAAAAAARTBREAKER"

For the love of god would it kill them to upload more syndicated 80s content?

I'm enjoying these uploads. Its probably all about music rights and editing them out and in with the other shows. Plus a lot of the territories have degraded originals too

The editing of these episodes is annoying. They are now just editing out the beginnings of matches if the WWF Superstar Line was being plugged at that time. They're also removing the merchandise plugs that would include the wrestlers interacting with the presenter (either Barry Didinski or Howard Finkel) while heading to the ring or leaving it.

Yeah I just saw they uploaded those shows where they have the new "Are you ready?" intro, I liked how they would change it from time to time depending on the roster.

To follow up on this, the Sept. 23 episode actually has a fade-to-black during the Issac Yankem vs. Bob Holly match just to remove a 1-800 number plug for America Online. It's completely unnecessary because on other episodes, a phone number will be blurred and muted if said out loud by the commentators. EDIT: The same thing happens during Triple H's match on Oct. 21. However, on the Aug. 26 episode, the AOL promotion is left untouched during Bret Hart's entrance. They don't even blur the number.

Remember, they're 30 years old now too. This is nostalgia for a lot of viewers. There's also the Superstars rights issues for pre-1992 episodes. And always the threat of what's problematic now and what isn't.

Of course, I would have preferred pre-1992, but I took a break from wrestling from mid-'94 until I heard that Hogan had turned heel, so I'm definitely glad to see these.

I wish they would have uploaded more house shows but this is okay.

I’ve been watching all of WWF & WCW from 1995 and I enjoy WCW so much more especially shows like Pro,Worldwide, Main Event,Prime & Saturday Night so many highly entertaining random matchups.

I definitely think the switch in priority of the business from drawing big houses for regular cards to drawing for ppvs plays a big part in that. I can watch the angles building to WWE or WCW ppvs and then watch them, but I can't see a big show that Bill Watts promoted at the Superdome in 1984, so it's sort of not a complete package. My complaints are about them not putting the 80s syndicated shows in the network, so I could see more of the post WM III angles then you get from Prime Time Wrestling.
