Saw an ad for this last night and it doesn't look that bad. Sort of reminds me of the old ECW. Anyone else any views on this?

We had a thread on this a while back: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055041415&page=1. I watched the first episode online and i'm gonna check it out on MTV when it starts over here. It starts some time in April, I think!

WSX is dead now, isn't it? It was a ratings flop but since MTV never promoted it and ended up being quite hostile to it, its demise was hardly surprising.

I must say I never got into it and gave up on it after the first episode. There was just too much action to absorb for my liking.

It's like going to a theatre to watch a play and getting nothing but action scenes. What would be the point? It would be better seeing a play where there is a story unfolding and where the action scenes make sense and add to the process.

Where did you hear that it's starting in April over here? Are there ads on MTV UK? MTV showed the first 3 or 4 episodes in America, then it was apparently cancelled. Then it was back on, but they showed all the remaining episodes except the season finale this week. The very last episode of the series is on next Tuesday in America, and then that's it for WSX and MTV as far as I know

I was not a fan of the first show. The second one had a bit more direction, I liked that. Third one was ok again, but I haven't seen any more since. A little too lacking in the psychology aspect for me, but I loved the fact that there was a wrestling show with tv time that focused everything around the actual wrestling. The musical guests didn't add to the show at all though

EDIT: Ah yeah, I just read that MTV UK have picked it up. It could get an audience if they promote it, it's a big alternative to WWE and I'd imagine that a typical MTV/non-wrestling fan audience would enjoy it to a degree
