The wrestling on Channel 2 was also from Memphis, which was basically a repeat from the 12:00 wrestling on Z-17, as it was called at the time. I do believe the first hour of wrestling on Channel 30 was also from Memphis, with the second hour being one of the WWF shows that was being aired around the country at the time.
 
Anyone find it interesting Channel 17 only showed movies from the year 1976 on this day?
