1990's was the WWE wrestling boom. The WWE began telecasting more swearing and violence to compete with the competition with other wrestling organizations. The attitude era kicked off the Monday night wars between the WWE and WCW " World Championship Wrestling." The two company's would go head to head with their Monday night television shows, sales, fan attraction, and television ratings.
The WWE Monday night television show was Monday night Raw is War which aired on USA network at 9p.m. until it was brought over to TNN Network and then Sold back to USA.
The WCW Monday night television show was WCW Nitro which aired monday night at 8p.m. and would turn off at 11p.m. WCW president Eric Bischooff would go on national television right before WWE Monday night Raw would air and tell the watchers everything that will happen that night. So one time he announced that there was going to be a new champion and the fans switched over to WWE to watch the main event. WCW did last a well, until the WWE bought the company in early 2001.
