"WWE Vintage Collection" is a professional wrestling television program from World Wrestling Entertainment showcasing action from the extensive WWE video library. The show is hosted by "Mean" Gene Okerlund.

"Vintage Collection" is shown in the United Kingdom on Sky Sports, in Australia on FOX8, in Germany on Premiere and in the Philippines on Jack TV, in India and Pakistan on Ten Sports, in Japan on J Sports. "Vintage Collection" replaced the defunct "WWE Heat".

how history

The show came into existence after the cancellation of the long running "WWE Heat". In its last few years, "Heat" was still broadcast on television internationally despite it being a WWE.com exclusive domestically. In spring 2008, WWE made the decision to end "Heat" after a decade-long run. However, this move left a gap in WWE's international TV distribution deals so the decision was taken to create a highlight show of archive matches.
