WWE Superstars Canceled on the WWE Network

Posted By: Ben Kerin on Nov 29, 2016

WWE will cease to record and broadcast "WWE Superstars" going forward with a replacement show "205 Live" which is set to officially debut tonight following SmackDown Live, according to PWInsider.com. 

WWE feel that by replacing Superstars with 205 Live it will add greater value to the WWE Network, especially since the Cruiserweight division which 205 will be based around is "must-see" action at the moment. 

Main Event, which had been taped on Tuesdays, will now tape prior to Monday's WWE Raw.

WWE Superstars originally launched in the late 1980's and was a forerunner to Monday Night Raw in 1993. The show was used to further storylines and new directions before becoming a magazine style show with a move to the USA Network in the mid-90s.

The show would continue to air until 2001 where it ended it's original run on TNN. The shows current incarnation was launched for WGN America in April 2009 and broadcast on international syndication. The show was moved to WWE.com in 2011 before it's final move to the WWE Network in 2014.
