I'm guessing the 1pm Wrestling on Ch. 9 (now WNYW 2.0) aired either WWE or the NWA and all I know ch. 11 was the NYC-area home of G.L.O.W.

WWOR-TV (you forgot the extra W added in '87) aired WWF Wrestling Spotlight around this time. WWF's other two series were Superstars of Wrestling and Wrestling Challenge and they aired on WNYW, respectively on Saturday and Sunday mornings. And apparently the NWA didn't have a New York City clearance at this point, though their TV show was on WPIX for a while in the late '80s. But the noon show on channel 11 was indeed Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling.

One other thing:

3:00- Motown returns to the Apollo

I'm wondering if this is the 1983 special Motown 25: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow?
