In 1982, Georgia Championship Wrestling changed the name of its main program to World Championship Wrestling, a name promoter Jim Barnett had previously used when promoting in Australia. WTBS owner Ted Turner had requested the name change in hopes of giving the wrestling programming on the Superstation a less regional scope. Also, by this point, GCW had been running shows in "neutral" territories like Ohio and Michigan. World Championship Wrestling continued to be taped at the TBS studios until March 1989, when the taping location was moved to the Center Stage Theater in Atlanta. The final show under the World Championship Wrestling name aired on March 28, 1992.
