USWA Championship Wrestling 1977

Overview

USWA Championship Wrestling is a television series that originally aired from 1977 until 1997. The program, which is categorized under the action, adventure, and drama genres, was created by Jerry Jarrett and spans 21 seasons consisting of 840 episodes. The show began as Jerry Jarrett's Continental Wrestling Association production broadcast on WMC-TV. It was later renamed the Championship Wrestling Association, maintaining the CWA name during the period when Jerry Lawler joined Jerry Jarrett to manage the show. Following the acquisition of the rights to the World Class Wrestling Association's World Class Championship Wrestling programs in the Dallas area, both the Dallas broadcasts and the CWA show were rebranded under the United States Wrestling Association name. Consequently, the program became known as USWA Championship Wrestling. The series features appearances by Jerry Lawler, Dave Brown, and Lance Russell. The show is recognized for bringing professional wrestling entertainment to television audiences, though it is not currently available on major domestic streaming platforms.
