Why don't you offer some reasons as to why as opposed to just being completely wrong?

I havn't seen WSX, and don't really watch ECW anymore, so you could be right. You must really suck if you're worse than WWECW

I don't know they are both pretty terrible. However WWECW has Monty Brown.

Those are reasons it's worse, right?

WSX has Human F'n Tornado. That's all you need.

K.

-Start with the rosters. In terms of workers I really like, WSX has Jack Evans, Matt Sydal, Genki Horiguchi, Masato Yoshino, Human Tornado, Jimmy Jacobs, and Colt Cabana. Just saw Joey Ryan and the Disco Machine for the first time as well, and I dig their shit as well. In terms of workers I really hate, they have X-Pac. ECW comparitively, has 2 guys I really like: Punk and Kevin Thorn. They also have Monty Brown, Gene Snitsky, Test, Hardcore Holly, Rene Dupree, and Bobby Lashley, all of whom I dislike.

-WSX has elements that are so terrible they are hilarious. The "explosions". The ring announcer who seems to have a pre-show routine that consists of taking about 14 hits of speed and chugging a gallon of coffee. The blatantly piped in crowd noise. All of this is indisputably terrible, but it's done in such an over the top way you have to laugh. They've got some intentionally funny stuff as well (Check the Trailer Park Boyz promo from this week). ECW is just boring.

-The wrestling. Call me an idiot, a mark, whatever, but I'd rather see a 5 minute Evans/Sydal spotfest than 10 minutes of Lashley/Test any day of the week.

New Jack is only on the first show I think. The commentary isn't good, but tbh I'd rather listen to those 2 guys than hearing Tazz say Rocketbustah for the 4 trillionth time and Joey Styles having to call Bobby Lashley "extreme".

Honestly, I've seen maybe a combined 5 minutes of WSX, and I didn't hate what I saw at all. I don't think I could watch it instead of ECW though, because I'm a WWE mark and I have been brainwashed.

Blitz

I agree that the shit with the explosions and electrocutions or whatever is retarded, but no more so than when the Undertaker calls down a lightning bolt or something.

The Undertaker's not in ECW. STAY ON TOPIC. :mad:

lol yes, the ring announcer is the greatest thing ever.

The commentators may not be as over-the-top as WWE's but at least they're competent.

The entire show is pretty much a spotfest. Which is still; better than WWECW.

I found out last night that they replay WSX on MTV2 from the week before. Now, I can watch both, but I'll be a week behind on WSX.

WSX is a spot-fest galore. That is all you need to know.

And yea, I even marked out a couple of time watching the spots.

Pretty sure they replay it like 5 other times a week as well.

Also, WSX is putting stuff up on their website, not just recaps, but backstage stuff, and matches. Right now they have the Trailer Park Boys Vs DIFH (JIMMY FUCKING JACOBS!) and Matt Sydal Vs Matt Classic (Colt Fucking Cabana.)

Blitz

I love the name Matt Classic. Brilliant :D

I would still rather watch ECW. This is coming from a huge Vampiro mark, but I'd rather watch boring than inane most days.

I love WSX, just the feeling it gives off is so much fun. It's basically got ADHD, and never stops for a minute, and I really like that. I love the screen they give their wrestlers when they come out, and it is all you need to know. Post larger bios on the website, and let them do crazy shit.

I also love the gimmicks. The emo team, the gangsta team, the 70's team. It's so corny that it's funny, and it works.

I think they could very easily expand and take on anywhere from an hour to two, and if/when they do, I'd rather watch it than ECW, TNA, RAW and maybe even SmackDown!. It's fun.

Well I finally saw a match.

I hate the announcer.

Did they take a page out of Smackdown's book and edit the audience, or did they pay them to cheer and clap non stop?

Waltman, seriously, needs to stop. Is it 1999? I like his in ring work, but hate everything else about him. Oh my god a crotch chop Oh my god another crotch chop. How long until his finishing move is a crotch chop?

Yeah....... the explosions are really fucking stupid.

As ADHD as it was, I enjoyed the actual match between 6pac and Vampiro.

They pay them to cheer and clap non-stop. Seriously.

They only get paid $60 for a day of sitting there cheering. I guess it's more than the average non-SAG extra work, but still...pathedic.

Would you call me pathetic if someone payed me to watch a wrestling show?

The One
02-08-2007, 05:28 PM
They only bring in people who look like the MTV crowd. They had to explain to them when to boo and when to cheer. They are nothing more than extras, and the fact that MTV productions runs it makes me call it pathedic more than the people themselves sitting in the crowd.
