Founded in 2003, Memphis Wrestling evolved from an earlier short-lived promotion called Memphis Championship Wrestling.

It was originally broadcast every Saturday morning at 11 AM CT, beginning on May 17, 2003.

In 2006, due to numerous conflicts with other Saturday morning broadcasting commitments, such as college football, the weekly broadcast moved to 10 PM CT and was renamed Memphis Wrestling Prime Time.

In January 2008, Memphis Wrestling began running repeats of previously-aired shows.

On August 9, 2008, Memphis Wrestling returned to its 11 AM Saturday spot, now on channel 50.
