  "All Star Wrestling" was a WWF television show which consisted of top tier or mid card opponents. The telecasts were taped and neatly edited into one hour programs which were syndicated. All matches were held at the Hamburg Field House in Hamburg, Pennsylvania. Host & ringside commentators are Vince McMahon Jr. and Antonino Rocca.
  
  NOTE: Interesting flub by Vince McMahon opening up the telecasts when he states "Welcome to CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING." Correctly the show we are watching is ALL STAR WRESTLING.   
  
  A new musical opening is introduced at the beginning and at the end of the program.
