>>15458166If I remember correctly both WCW and WWF aired their weekly wrap up show on free to air (WCW on 7 and WWF on 10) along with both having periods of airing Raw/Nitro on free to air. Most of the years it was just Heat/Superstars for WWF and whatever the weekly wrap up for WCW was called that year and Thunder for WCW. If I remember correctly Nitro had a longer run on free to air than RAW, but RAW was on free to air right as WCW was dying. I don't recall Smackdown ever airing free to air, I think that started up with FOX8.
Optus Cable didn't even make it out west here, I think Galaxy might have but I don't remember anyone ever having it. WA's always been a company town and cable's no different for that. Either way if you are a fellow mid 30s boomer anon I'm sure you probably remember the two companies both having a decent following until the late 90s, when WCW disappeared here a few years before it died its final death and then WWF became fucking massive with regular house show tours here in the early 2000s.
