WOW has been recognized as one of the few nationally broadcast wrestling promotions featuring an all-female roster.{{cite web|author=TV.com |url=http://www.tv.com/women-of-wrestling/show/9821/summary.html |title=Women of Wrestling |publisher=TV.com |access-date=2012-01-24}} Only 24 television episodes and a pay-per-view event were produced during its initial run.{{cite magazine |last=Meltzer |first=Dave |author-link=Dave Meltzer |date=July 2003 |title=WOW did 24 episodes of television that aired from October 2000 through March 2001... |magazine=Wrestling Observer Newsletter |page=8 |location=Campbell, California |quote=WOW did 24 episodes of television that aired from October 2000 through March 2001 on major stations in about 100 markets, buying tin [sic?] most markets. The money was supposed to be recouped by holding a PPV show. They did one from the Great Western Forum in Los Angeles, that ended up doing 12,000 buys, and the venture lost several million dollars in the process. In fact, they lost more money in their last three months than ECW did in its last year, and ECW had many wrestlers under six-figure contracts. WOW has been largely dormant ever since}} In 2002, McLane sought a partnership with Kiss frontman Gene Simmons to revive the promotion.{{cite web|title=INTERACTIVE WRESTLING RADIO INTERVIEW - Terri Gold|url=http://www.wrestlingepicenter.com/IWR/interviews/TerriGold41606.html|access-date=18 February 2016}} In July 2011, WOW TV reruns began airing on the ABC affiliate KTNV in Las Vegas.{{cite web|url=http://wowe.com/ |title=Women of Wrestling - WOWE - New Website Coming Soon |publisher=WOWE |access-date=2012-01-24}}
