In which the WBF Was a runaway success and FOX is paying Vince a billion dollars for Friday Night Posedown.

I kind of feel like with how fickle TV is that the WBF would fill the American Gladiators spot as something that would be successful, lose steam and get axed then come back when, like, the schedule is desperate or with AG, a writer's strike halts most fiction TV.
I can just picture in this universe that Vince would be running out of Stamford onto his private jet and heading to FOX in California to tell them to bring the WBF back during the 2006 Writer's Strike.

Could you imagine if there had been WBF action figures?
All these kids getting Gary Strydom from Santa Claus on Christmas Day

There needs to be a Lex Luger Wrestlemania 8 WBF figure that’s for sure. Complete with glass of milk.

in retrospect, WBF was only missing one thing: Gary Strydom with a headworn mic talking about his striations.

Ok but like seriously: was there supposed to be weekly episodes of this where dudes would get into character and then have like flex offs, random feats of strength or like No Oils Barred matches?
Or was it supposed to just be like 2 PPV's a year with dudes getting all greased up and jiggly and having standard body building completions.

I may be wrong, but I think the weekly show was mainly to discuss the "lifestyle" and give updates on the "Bodystars". I'm sure had it been successful, there were probably going to be more than just the one show/PPV a year.

I honestly think bodybuilding is Vince's favorite thing. He probably enjoyed that segment more than anyone else last night. He should have come out on commentary just to say "look at that mass"!

If you listen closely to the northbound wind, you can still hear Vince gushing all over Gary Strydom (WAOAOWWW!!!!)
