WWF on MSG Network

WWF on MSG Network (also advertised as WWF from Madison Square Garden) was a professional wrestling television program produced by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). It was a monthly television special that aired live from Madison Square Garden on the MSG Network from August 7, 1976, to March 16, 1997. The program featured live wrestling matches and interviews with WWF wrestlers. Updates of current feuds and several major title changes also took place on the show. It is best remembered for being the birth of Hulkamania in 1984, when Hulk Hogan captured the WWF Championship from The Iron Sheik, launching WWF’s national expansion era. MSG also hosted the rise of the Rock ’n’ Wrestling Connection, where larger-than-life personalities, celebrity influence, and television-driven storytelling began reshaping the company’s presentation into mainstream entertainment.
