WWF Jakked and WWF Metal[a] are American professional wrestling television programs that were produced by the World Wrestling Federation (WWF, now known as WWE). Both programs aired in broadcast syndication weekly from August 28, 1999 until May 19, 2002, with Jakked on Saturday nights and Metal in the afternoon.[1] Both shows replaced WWF Shotgun Saturday Night.[1]
They featured matches from the week's events, including exclusive undercard matches (generally squashes) taped before Raw is War. After the WWE brand extension, Jakked and Metal also began to feature matches from the SmackDown brand; as such, it was taped before SmackDown tapings. In May 2002, WWE Velocity premiered and began to serve a similar purpose for the SmackDown brand, while Heat (previously taped before SmackDown!) remained part of the Raw brand.[2] At the same time, Jakked and Metal were replaced by WWE Bottom Line and WWE Afterburn in syndication.
