WCW Magazine

WCW Magazine was the official professional wrestling magazine of World Championship Wrestling. This incarnation of the magazine contained lifestyle sections, a monthly calendar, entertainment, work out tips, and other information. Originally known as NWA/WCW Wrestling Wrap-Up from 1989 to 1991 with Dennis Brent as Editor-in-Chief.[1][2] WCW Magazine was launched and ran from 1991 - 1994 from Kappa Publishing. It was relaunched in 1995 - 1999 and was published and edited by Colin Bowman. Between 1999 - 2001 the final issues were published in-house by WCW, ceasing once the wrestling promotion was sold to WWE.
