Been wanting to cover Wrestling Society X for awhile so I found my season 1 DVD and this is my review of them.
-Matt Sydal vs. Jack Evans:
This ring announcer sounds like he's on some sort of drug. EVAN BOURNE! This match is amazing at the start. Both guys are flying all over the place. Both of these guys do some amazing stuff. I haven't seen moves like this ever. 630 Splash by Evans wins it.
-Extreme Rumble:
Justin Incredible and Teddy Hart start it. Kaos in third and the other double team him. Vampiro out fourth. Puma and Alcatraz enter during the break. 6-Pac out next. Chris Hamrick and New Jack out next. Hamrick slammed through a table. New Jack hits the ref with a guitar. Kaos and Luke go through the electrified barbwire weapon area and New Jack stage dives Hamrick. Hart backdropped through a table. Youth Suicide out last. Suicide powerbombed on thumbtacks. 6-Pac and Vampire climb the ladder to get the contracts for the WSX Title match next week.
Show 2:
-Luke Hawx vs. Human Tornado:
I really hate this ring announcer. HUMAN TORNADO! YES! Really awesome moves by both guys. AMAZING tumbleweed by Tornado. Tornado DDT wins it for Tornado. Hawx, Alcatraz, Aguilera, and Kaos brawl post-match.
-That '70's Team vs. Team Dragon Gate:
Team Dragon Gate is amazing. LMFAO at Magnum using an inhaler during the match. That 70's Team wins? Huh? Team Dragon Gate destroys the Disco Ball post-match...yeah, I'd be mad two if I lost to that team.
-WSX Title match, 6-Pac vs. Vampiro:
Pac using speed and Vampiro using his power. Fight on the floor. Tornado DDT through a table by Pac. Vampiro powerbombs Pac through the coffin and it explodes. Vampiro pins Pac to win the title.
Show 3:
-Trailer Park Boys vs. The Filth and the Fury:
Filth and the Fury are really good especially Teddy Hart. Teddy shocks one of the Boys and electrocutes him on a table with water and the same power cord he used before. MDog 20 hits a Shooting Star Legdrop to win it.
-El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado vs. Jack Evans:
Where's 911 to chokeslam this ring announcer? This match was short but really good. Evans won it with a 650 Splash.
-Matt Classic has to be one of my favorite characters EVER.
-Tables, Ladders, and Curvesas Match, Luke Hawkx/Alkatrazz vs. Kaos/Jesus Aguilera:
This match was really disappointing. The dissention angle with Kaos/Jesus is the only redeeming quality about it.
Show 4:
-Matt Sydal vs. Scorpio Sky:
Fast paced start. Sydal just did the Miz corner clothesline move. AMAZING belly to belly suplex counter to a moonsault by Sydal to win it.
-Keepin' It Gangsta vs. That '70's Team:
Ruckus was the clear highlight of this. That '70's Team is disgusting. Disco balls, bling ladders, mini-ladders...yeah, Keepin' It Gangsta wins it.
-El Hombre Blanco Mascerado vs. Human Tornado:
Human Tornado's music hits but he's nowhere to be found. He's down backstage and 6-Pac comes out. He challenges Vampiro. Vampiro out and he is ambushed by Ricky Banderas. Banderas beats up on Vampiro and throws a fireball in his face.
Show 5:
-Team Dragon Gate vs. The Filth and the Fury:
AMAZING match. Best one on the DVD thus far. These guys and Evans are the 5 best on this DVD. AMAZING spots in this. Filth and the Fury are one of the best teams I've ever seen as far as high flying action goes.
-6-Pac vs. Human Tornado:
Glorified squash job. Tornado got in a bit of offense but not much.
-Delikado vs. Arik Cannon:
Quick match that ends with Delikado and some cholos beating up on Cannon. They dump him into a wheelbarrow with cement in it to end the show.
Other than the Dragon Gate/F&F tag match the last two shows have blown.
Show 6:
-Jack Evans vs. Scorpio Sky:
I really am becoming a fan of Jack Evans. Sky was really impressive too. 450 splash by Evans wins it.
-That 70's Team vs. D.I.F.H.:
Black using his own teammate as a weapon is great. 70's Team wins again? Gag.
-YES! RICKY BANDERAS JUST TOSSED OUT THE RING ANNOUNCER! This guy automatically is my favorite in WSX just for doing that.
-Banderas calls out Vampiro. Vampiro comes out and Banderas and 6-Pac ambush him. Youth Suicide out and gets destroyed. Banderas and Suicide leave the bunker as Vampiro and 6-Pac fight in the ring. Fight goes to the floor. Banderas tosses Suicide off the top of the bunker through the staging.
Show 7:
-Ricky Banderas ambushes Youth Suicide on stage and then powerbombs a roadie off the stage.
-The Cartel vs. Arik Cannon and Vic Grimes:
I like this Cartel faction. Lil' Cholo is such a great character name. SARA DEL REY...in a mask! Three cholos pile up on Grimes for the win. Not bad.
-Matt Sydal vs. Human Tornado:
This was more storyline based around a fan letter Lizzy Valentine got and Sydal being distracted by it. Marital dispute storyline.
-Los Pachos Guapos vs. The Filth and the Fury:
AMAZING moonsault by Hart. Kaos uses the disco ball they stole earlier as a weapon to win it. This was good.
Show 8:
-Los Pachos Guapos vs. The Cartel:
This was surprisingly good. Lots of quick action and interference.
-WSX Championship, Vampiro (c) vs. Ricky Banderas:
Wild brawl at the start. Vampiro chokeslams Banderas. Banderas powerbombs Vampiro through a table with lights on it. Spear off the stage by Banderas. Vampiro's back is covered in blood. Vampiro chokeslammed through a coffin with explosives in it to win the WSX title. I liked this a lot.
Show 9:
-Luke Hawkz and Alcatrazz vs. Arik Cannon and Vic Grimes:
Vic Grimes through through an electrical box. Hawkz/Alcatrazz win it. Nothing too special but could've been worse.
-Scorpio Sky vs. 6-Pac:
Squash match with Pac winning it.
-Jack Evans vs. Human Tornado:
This should be really good. This was excellent. The ending has Tornado putting Evans in a dragon sleeper and then the bell sounds. Its a draw...yeah, that ruined it.
Show 10:
-PIRANHA DEATHMATCH! AWESOME!
-Piranha Death Match, The Cartel vs. Los Pachos Guapos:
This was really good. I like this feud. All sorts of interference from the Cartel. Lil' Cholo gets sent through a table. Kaos gets backdropped into the piranha tank so the Cartel wins. I really liked this. Now I have a new faction to cheer for. Cartel rules.
-Vampiro goes on the rampage after Scorpio Sky insults him. Vampiro kicks everyone's ass. This is great. Banderas ambushes Vampiro and they fight to the back.
-6-Pac talking to Lizzy Valentine. Matt Sydal ambushes him but Pac beats him up.
-Exploding Steel Cage Timebomb Deathmatch, Team Dragon Gate vs. The Filth and the Fury:
AMAZING Shooting Star Press off the railing above the ring by Hart. Sakoda blinds Hart. The cage explodes multiple times. I really liked this match too.
Overall this was a mixed bag. Half of it was really good and the other half really sucked. I wish there were more than 10 episodes because this looked promising. Oh well. Overall I'll recommend it especially to fans of high flying wrestling, deathmatches, and spotfests.
