WWE Looking To Acquire More Wrestling Tape Libraries

WWE seems to be in the market to acquire more wrestling tape libraries, as they issued a survey asking fans if they would be interested in seeing any of these promotions added to the WWE Network:

-Stampede Wrestling (Calgary, Alberta): 1948-1989

-Grand Prix Wrestling (Montreal, Quebec): 1971-1975

-Border City Wrestling (Windsor, Ontario): 1993-Present

-ASW – All Star Wrestling (Montreal, Quebec): 1967-1975

-Northern Championship Wrestling (Montreal, Quebec): 1986 – Present

-Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling: (Moncton, New Brunswick) 1960s-1986

-NWA All Star Wrestling (Vancouver, British Columbia): 1960s-1989

-ECCW – Elite Canadian Championship Wrestling (Vancouver, BC): 1996-Present

-Maximum Pro Wrestling (Windsor and Toronto, Ontario): 2010-Present

WWE currently owns the Stampede Wrestling library with the exception of any matches featuring Bret Hart as Hart acquired the rights to those a while back.

WWE would have to license that footage from Bret if they wanted to use it.
