Details on TCW television deal, satellite outlets

Matt Riviera’s TCW (Traditional Championship Wrestling) has signed a TV deal with The Pursuit Channel for a late Friday night one hour time slot at 1:00 a.m. Eastern (Midnight CT). The channel is carried on both the Dish Network and DirecTV satellite outlets.

It will be available in 32% of the country giving it slightly more clearance than Ring of Honor on Sinclair, although ROH is described as being on much “stronger stations.” A report by Dave Meltzer stated that several ROH wrestlers have contacted TCW about being able to appear on the show. As of now TCW only runs one taping per month largely using a local crew with a few bigger name stars.
