Memphis Wrestling is a professional wrestling promotion based in Memphis, Tennessee. Its in-studio wrestling show, Memphis Wresting: Home of Rhythm and Bruise, is broadcast weekly on WLMT (CW30), the local CW affiliate in Memphis, and is produced in WLMT's studio. It was originally broadcast every Saturday morning at 11am CT, beginning on May 17, 2003. In 2006, due to numerous conflicts with other Saturday morning broadcasting commmitments such as college football, the weekly broadcast moved to 10 pm CT and was re-branded as Memphis Wrestling Prime Time.
Weekly in-studio wrestling has been a mainstay of Memphis television since the early 1950s, with Memphis Wrestling maintaining this tradition.
Memphis Wrestling evolved from an earlier short lived promotion called Championship Wrestling. These should not be confused with another similarly named promotion called Memphis Championship Wrestling - a former World Wrestling Federation developmental territory - that ceased in mid-2001. The promotion also airs internationally on TWC Fight! in United Kingdom and Ireland, and The Fight Network in Canada.
