Southwest Championship Wrestling was a professional wrestling program airing on the USA Network. It was the program for the American wrestling promotion of the same name.
Southwest Championship Wrestling was the first professional wrestling program to air on USA and was one of that network's highest-rated programs at the time. However, the inability of the promotion to pay a weekly fee of $7,000 to keep the program on the air, combined with an offer by World Wrestling Federation owner Vince McMahon to USA to replace Southwest Championship Wrestling with his own show, led to Southwest Championship Wrestling being cancelled in August 1983. It was replaced by WWF All-American Wrestling on September 4, 1983.
