I've watched WSX because it's wrestling, but does anyone realize that these episodes were recorded like over a year ago? WSX doesn't even exist, most of the wrestlers aren't even signed with it anymore. I don't see any reason to get all excited over it. Besides that I sweat that the clapping and cheering is piped in, it sounds like the crowd is going wild and when you look at them they are all standing still. Plus the ring announcer is pathetic, he can't stand still in the ring. One of the commentators makes Mike Tenay look good. The explosions are definatly fake or at least exaggerated. So I end this rant with "WSX is a joke, why bother?" any comments.. First... get your facts straight. It was taped 3 months ago in November. The wrestlers contracts are just now expiring or soon to be in a couple weeks. WSX does exist...as a wrestling SHOW... NOT a PROMOTION Their next taping is in March some time. The ring announcer likes to add energy to it. So what's wrong with that? Sure, he may annoy a lot of us. As if anyone could ever know that he's pathetic. It's obvious that the explosions aren't real so don't act like they are. MTV is basically trying to make a joke out of pro wrestling as it seems. I end my rant..... NOW. |

Haha....good lord. Do you really think MTV is planning on dethroning WWE with WSX? If you really think that they are trying to become the #1 wrestling promotion in America, then you have a demented view on life. It's an entertaining half hour of wrestling that is different than TNA and WWE. It's actually way more entertaining that I thought it'd be, so why complain? Just watch it and enjoy it.

I'm so so at this point. I like that indy guys get a swank paycheck n' stuff, but I don't think I'll be getting much of what I desire out of it...

I am really tired of certain people, actually its just one, coming in EVERY SINGLE WSX topic and bashing it, it's borderline-obsessive, it's getting worse than Erik and Randy Orton had been. And why bother? Yeah, it's booked like a season, that's why I like it, it's something different. This way, if someone gets injured they can't cancel or drastically switch the match, they can figure something new out. it's SOLID wrestler, it's just wrestling, no dumbass jokes, no clever little inside jokes 'hey, remember this?', it's just a match, if joking happens its through mannerisms which is better than 'lol we have a wrestler named ice cream. THATS HILLARIOUS' So give it a chance, it's something new, but so was the WWF originally. I know who you are talking about. But all I'm gonna say is, you didn't really need to drag another fed into this. You don't like someone hating on WSX, that's fine. But you could've easily made your point without mocking a fed with a couple of wrestling ice creams (which, if that's all they were, wouldn't be all that great, but they're excellent wrestlers to boot...well, at least one that I know of). I mean, you wouldn't like it if I said, say, PWG was all "LOL That guy's got a Tom Selleck Moustache, how witty!!" Besides, all these indy guys work together (Joey Ryan is working CHIKARA next weekend, which will feature Los Ice Creams), so I don't see the need to say "You don't like WSX, well it's better than what you watch!" Sorry, I went a little on a tangent. |

Fair enough, but what I mean is that fun is all it's intended to be. It's not trying to be anything else, it's pure entertainment. Okay, see that I follow, and you're right, it's pure entertainment. It's certainly not anything approaching professional wrestling. Who decides what's pro wrestling and what isn't? I'd like to meet this completely objective, non-human observer. |

oh and another reason why I know the cheering is piped in, is because no Pac heat.. there should be silence, obviously fake

Another question I have...DOES ANYBODY HAVE ENTRANCE MUSIC? I mean I know they must, yet apart from that 70s team, I don't remember anything distinctive about anyone's entrance. You're goddamn MTV, START LICENSING!

you would think that they'd have enough money to afford a better looking ring.. not one all patched up with duct tape, covered in vomit and the turnbuckles are like old dirty rags duct taped around the steel post.. come on!  |

the wrestling I have seen on WSX is better than WWE.
the guys are young and hungry and are busting their ass in the ring. The same can not be said for WWE

I just look at it as a way for people like Jack Evans, Matt Sydal, Human Tornado, etc,... to get some television exposure. Not everyone is able to watch or keep up with ROH (for instance, I didn't know Homicide was the world champ until last week.... I'm assuming he beat Danielson for it.)... so for people who have heard these names tossed about, they actually have a chance to see who these people are.

I am glad I'm able to see these guys on TV, I'm just not glad with a lot of the other things on the show and the unneeded fanatical devotion to it. |
