16. The Cartoons Are Done, Now For Wrestling!
A certain generation of UK-born wrestling fans will remember that there was a time when the Cartoon Network channel switched over to broadcasting whatever was on TNT after 9pm. Yes, as shocking and hilarious as it sounds, WCW did actually air on a channel dedicated to cartoon mayhem on British shores. Right after the antics of Johnny Bravo, Dexter's Laboratory and The Powerpuff Girls, the station would change to TNT, chronicling the drama of the nWo, Goldberg and DDP. This is the kind of thing which would never happen in 2015!
