Does WSX get sued?

[JMA]

They'll probably just get a warning, which WSX will likely comply with.

You just made a powerful enemy today, my friend.

Make that two powerful enemies.

I LIKE Chikara but the fact is that by being on MTV WSX immediately becomes the 3rd best brand pro wrestling.

I think they might have a problem if they keep using Justin Credible.

[JMA]

I think I'd like to see a CZW vs. CHIKARA feud. That would certainly be bizarre.

No. 3rd most recognizable, maybe. Best or worst doesn't enter into it. You can have huge publicity and still suck balls. WSX and crappy pop music are both examples of this, and both are at least halfway MTV's fault.

They can't be sued unless they're actually profiting from WWE owned material. For example (I haven't seen it yet so i'm just speculating) if they said like "6-pac is a former WWE Light-Heavyweight champion" they can't sue. If they insult them, they might, but its a tough case.

Obviously, though, it would be better if they just didn't name drop to begin with.

WSX will not be sued I don't think, since CHIKARA makes references to other promotions or wrestlers (there are occasionally WWE references dropped, especially given that Dr. Cheung is a John Cena fan and has used his music at least once for an entrance along with Darkness Crabtree).

However, WSX is on TV so it may be different.

I like WSX, but they certainly aren't better than CHIKARA. Being on TV doesn't make you better than anybody. Just more recognizable. Look at Paris Hilton. She's on TV and she sucks at (or on) everything!

Funny thing is this makes WSX look a lot more mature and less-bush-league than TNA. Rather than act like dicks about the past and their competing promotions, they're open about it.

Though you're right the total lack of name-dropping would be a better idea.

Exactly. Many feds were like this. XWF had Hulk Hogan and other legends, along with PPV, and it sucked horribly, IMO.

I still can't get over them calling Low-Ki Kwick Kick, by the way.

Maybe they were trying to channel the spirit of Ron Killings.

Vince never had that kind of money. He might be able to afford Court TV, but I doubt it.

[Mr. Zombie]

Vince couldn't even spell court tv.
