5 Times WWE Changed The Format Of Its Most Well Known Shows
Change is good... sometimes...
3. WWF Superstars
For over a decade, Superstars was the WWF's A-show, a weekend hub where big matches were announced, major angles advanced, and stars debuted. As cable began leaving syndication in its dust, Raw surpassed Superstars, re-establishing Superstars firmly as the B-show.
In 1996, Superstars moved to the USA Network on Sunday mornings, where it maintained its long-running format until the following March. That's when Superstars became a run-of-the-mill recap show, and remained so until the end of its run in 2001, to make way for other programs.
