-- Colt Cabana has signed with WWE thus his final date with ROH will be 4/28 in his hometown Chicago facing Adam Pearce. "For the past four and a half years the only consistent thing in my life has been ROH," Cabana said. "ROH has been my home and family. The Chicago show on April 28th is not going to be a farewell, but a celebration. We are going to celebrate how great ROH is and will continue to be. It's not going to be a good bye, its going to be a "Seeya later". Thanks for all the good time, and great memories!" During his ROH run, which began in 2002 at Philadelphia's Murphy Rec Center with best friend and current ECW wrestler CM Punk, Cabana has been ROH Tag Team Champion twice with Punk and has been involved in many great moments with the promotion including his heated feud with Homicide and the recent great angle with Lacey and Jimmy Jacobs. Let's hope Cabana gets to display his unique sense of humor and excellent ring work in the big leagues.

TONIGHT!

YOU ALWAYS WANTED MORE THAN 30 MINUTES OF WRESTLING SOCIETY X!

WELL, NOW YOU'VE GOT IT!!! YOUR WSX WISH HAS COME TRUE!

Tonight! Tuesday! March 13, 2007; MTV will unleash 2 1/2 hours of ALL NEW, NEVER BEFORE SEEN WSX action!

That's right - 5 ALL NEW EPISODES of Wrestling Society X - back-to-back starting at 11 PM EST/PST! A marathon of fresh episodes of WSX on MTV!

Don't miss any of the action as things kick off with one of the most spectacular high-flying matches of the season as The Filth and The Fury, Teddy Hart and Matt Cross, taking on Team Dragon Gate and end 2 1/2 hours later with one of the most talked about matches of the season as Jack Evans and the Human Tornado battle it out one-on-one! Plus, in the middle, you¹ll see the most intense battle in WSX history as Vampiro and Ricky Banderas battle it out for the WSX Championship and the debuts of many new WSX stars! How much high flying rapid-fire action, insane outstanding acrobatics, and explosive innovative wrestling can we give you in two and a half hours? Will your body be able to handle the WSXperience?

Episode 5 - 11:00 pm EST /PST

The putrid smell of Vampiro's burnt dreadlock still lingers in the WSX Bunker, as last time on Wrestling Society X… Matt Sydal and his leading lady Lizzy Valentine took the award for "best performance in a wrestling contest" against Award Winning Scorpio Sky! Keepin' It Gangsta ("King Of Bling" Babi Slymm & "The Regulator Of The Ring" Ruckus) called out any team, and brought their over $2,000,000 BLING'D OUT LADDER to Knock The F'OUT of Joey "Magnum" Ryan and sent the 70's team back to the Robs Place (Check it out, a "What's happening?" reference in 2007)! The degenerate 6-Pac jumped Human Torando before his match against Next Generation star El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado and called out WSX Champion Vampiro! Vampiro came to the ring, but ended up being viciously attacked by a mysterious, rather large and scared man. This beast of a man proceeded to throw a fireball severely burning the dark soul of Vampiro…

INTERNATIONAL TAG TEAM AFFAIR - The Filth & The Fury (Teddy Hart & Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross) vs. Team Dragon Gate (Masato Yoshino & Genki Horiguchi)
Three weeks ago, The Filth & The Fury made their shocking (pun intended) debut as third generation superstar Teddy Hart not only electrocuted Spyder Nate Webb of the Trailer Park Boyz (taking WSX.MTV.COM temporarily offline), but proceeded to hit his open heart surgery off of one of the seedier sides of the WSX Bunker. Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross landed his M-Dogg Fury (shooting star legdrop) for a huge win for this thrilling new generation Can-Am Connection. However, they step back into the ring this week on Wrestling Society X, facing international ambassadors of the WSX United Nations in Yoshino & Horiguchi of Team Dragon Gate. The pride and joy of the land of the rising sun will be looking to regroup after the disco demolition against that 70's team two weeks ago and last weeks loss on WSXtra to emotional, yet unstable, duo of D.I.F.H. They have lost face, but will they regain "honor" tonight? Get ready and strap yourself in as this match will featuring rapid-fire action, outstanding acrobatics, innovative wrestling, and four of the best in WSX!

TORANDO WARNING: SEVERE ANGER! Will 6-Pac answer the Human Tornado's challenge?
As the beautiful Lacey was getting ready to host WSXtra last week, the Human Tornado regained consciousness and challenged the man who attacked him from behind with a num-chuck last week, the one and only 6-Pac! Tornado and his balls of steels asked if 6-Pac had a set after facing Vampiro's exploding coffin. The leader of the tornaHOs challenged the former WWE, WCW, TNA, XPW Champion to settle their differences this week, not in the posh yet foul smelling dressing rooms of the WSX Bunker, but in the ring! Will 6-Pac accept the challenge of this rising Next Generation star? When finally reached for comment, 6-Pac said he had two small words for WSX.MTV.COM that we can't print here!

TWO DEBUTS, ONE MATCH - "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon vs. Delikado
We were introduced last week to "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon, who showed us his strong style by destroying a friend of his with harsh shots and elbow smashes in anticipation of his in-ring debut. This week, he's in the Bunker and ready to face the masked assassin known as Delikado. Like the man who attacked Vampiro last week, not much is known about Delikado but word is he fits the cliché "silent but deadly" to a "T." Will Anarchy reign supreme in the WSX Bunker or will Delikado lead to his defeat?

NEWS FLASH! This just in! WSX.MTV.COM has gotten a message from someone calling themselves "The Dark Prophet." This person has asked for some time this week on Wrestling Society X to give his "justification for my fiery actions of last week." The address he gave our camera crew? A cold concrete crypt at a rundown cemetery. Now, for the first time ever, this mystery man who attacked Vampiro last week will speak on his heinous actions! Who is this "Dark Prophet?" Why did he come to Wrestling Society X? What's with his burnt face and what does Vampiro have to do with it? Turn in…if you dare!

Plus a performance from Jibbs!

WSXTra, one-half of the tag team champions known as the full Wrestling Society X experience, is back again this week with a brand new edition! Hosted by Lacey (mmmmmmm Lacey) and the worlds greatest hypeman (sorry Flavor Flav) Fabien Kalen. On this episode, two huge tag team contests with some of the finest tag teams in the entire wrestling world! We saw last time on WSXtra an incident between the brash Luke Hawx, along his tag team partner Alkatrazz, and the blinged out bad boys of Keepin It Gangsta. Cameras caught their brawl backstage. This week, the brawl continues - in the ring! Will Ruckus bring the bling'd out ladder worth over a million dollars? Will the "southern stomper" lay waste to "sweet" Babi Slymm? Will Alkatrazz violate his parole? Will Ruckus, bring the um, ruckus? Plus, two more of the many great teams who call the WSX Bunker home rumble, as Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Munoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera) will be in action. Can these handsome Latino heartthrobs keep focused this week or will they fall victim to the Trailer Park Boyz of Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb? Uncle White Trash Johnny Webb has promised his team a post-match victory feast for the ages at Applebee's if the White Trash Boys can reign supreme! Will Los Ponchos Guapos derail White Trash Boys' high life and apple cobbler dreams? Check it out online!

Episode 6 - 11:30 pm EST /PST

WILL SCORPIO SKY BE AWARDED "VICTORY" - Jack Evans vs. Scorpio Sky
Scorpio Sky, a man recognized by his peers at Montclair High as "Best Athlete" and "Most Likely To Succeed" is back to the bunker this week on Wrestling Society X. After his tough loss to the cocky coverboy Matt Sydal, he decided to beat Sydal at his own game. No, not the men's catalog fashion game or "Hungry Hungry Hippos", but inside the squared circle. The egomaniacal Sky challenged the undefeated Prince Of Parkland Jack Evans (who holds a victory over Sydal) to a match this week on WSX! The ariel emperor was quick to accept Sky's challenge telling WSX.MTV.COM "Man, I don't know what this Scorpio Sky is thinking? His moves are tight, but next to Jack Evans, son I'm gold medal and you're just honorable mention! Check your watch Sky, its almost time for the 630 senton express! And you know this……man! " As we've seen over the last few weeks, these two New Generation stars are two of the most thrilling athletes to watch. This should be an exhilarating action packed contest of wrestling society Xcellence!

MORE THEN MUSIC - A BATTLE FOR THE AGES - That '70s Team vs. D.I.F.H.
It's the age old battle: Bee Gee's vs. Jawbreaker! Frampton vs. Dashboard! Loggins & Messina vs. Lifetime & My Chemical Romance! What happens when the jive talkin'-feeling groovy-mustache riding vibes of That '70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine), face passionate Tyler and delicate Jimmy of D.I.F.H. These two teams are no strangers to one another, as they fought two weeks ago on WSXtra. Jimmy took a break from text messaging and waving at the pretty girls to help Tyler hit the emotional explosion for the victory. Jimmy was so overwhelmed afterwards he nearly stage dove into some lovely ladies at the WSX Bunker. Tonight, the rematch has been set! Will we see a disco demolition or the emotional explosion? Can Jimmy focus on the match inside the ring? Will Disco's balls get smashed?

All this plus more coming off of the shocking events of last week's episode!

Make sure you don't forget to turn in or log on to WSXTra, the additional scoop on the weekly WSX sundee! Hosted by Lacey and the main man on the mic Fabien Kalen! Speaking of the Cocky Coverboy Matt Sydal, he has flown back from Milan, Italy hanging out with Milano and all the other Italian fashion models, designers and beautiful people in order to compete this week on WSXtra. Him and main squeeze Lizzy Valentine caused a paparazzi panic in Italy, but back in the WSX Bunker can they forget about the runway, lights and the catwalk. Matt better be ready as this week, he's facing the returning El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado! The man from just north of the border has been winless but impressive in Wrestling Society X. Can he possibly cover the international cover boy for the 1-2-3, or will El Hombre's victory hat dance be delayed once again? Plus, the deadly duo of Alkatrazz & Luke Hawx are back, but instead of Gangstas they will be facing the All-American dream team of Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb along with Uncle White Trash Johnny Webb and you know them as the Trailer Park Boyz!

Episode 7 - 12:00 am EST /PST

FILTH & FURY'S UNDEFEATED STREAK IS ON THE LINE! - Los Pochos Guapos vs. The Filth & The Fury
In which should be an explosive contest (no pun intended, seriously. . .), the undefeated Filth & Fury (Teddy Hart & Matt Cross) will do battle with Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Munoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera). Los Pochos are still at odds when it comes to team unity. Aguilera is too focused on the mamacitas, carvezas, and disco's balls(?) which is driving Kaos insane. Keep in mind, when they are on the same page, Los Poncho's are a fantastic team in the vein of other classic Latino tag teams in wrestling history such as Pedro Morales y Carlos Colon, Los Fabulosos (Silver King y El Dandy) and The Conquistadors (Uno y Dos). Kaos wants to work together with Aguilera, as the next generation of American Latino superstar athletes, can these two work together towards a common goal and stop the Filth & Fury's high flying adrenaline rush?

COCKY COVERBOY, MEET TORNADO - Human Tornado vs. Matt Sydal (with Lizzy Valentine)
Coming off a few weeks of distraction with 6-Pac, the P-I-M-P of WSX is back in the WSX Bunker again to entertain his legions of fans, the TornaHOs, on Wrestling Society X! The man with all the moves and more game then Sega will be looking to return to his winning ways. However, he's not going to the ring against a chump or a chimp, he's going to the ring against the cocky coverboy Matt Sydal. Sydal, along with his beautiful girlfriend Lizzy Valentine has been on a tear lately and tonight he wants to show everyone that he's just not another ridiculously sinfully handsome pretty face. "Calvin, Donatella, Stella be dammed, I'm taking a hiatus from the catwalk until I am on top of my game in WSX!" Matt said while looking in his hand mirror. "And when I come back, male modeling world be ready, because I'm getting better looking every day!" Matt's main squeeze Lizzy laughed in approval as she quickly folded up a yellow note addressed to "Peaches"

WHO OR WHAT IS CANNON'S BACKUP?
Plus, Arik Cannon is back in action, but this time, he's got backup! (We don't want to give too much away before you watch this little marathon now do we. . .?)

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Quietdrive

Also check out WSXTra this week featuring Keepin' It Gangsta ("King Of Bling" Babi Slymm & "The Regulator Of The Ring" Ruckus)vs. Alkatrazz & Luke and Award Winning Scorpio Sky faces the Youth Suicide in Suicides' second professional match!

Episode 8 - 12:30 am EST /PST

FINALLY, THE MATCH! - WSX Championship: Vampiro vs. Ricky Banderas
The wait is over. And now, for the first time in WSX history, Vampiro puts his WSX Championship on the line. However, the steaks have never been higher, the action never so hard hitting and oh so personal, as tonight Vampiro will be facing the man whose face is forever altered due to his own hands, Ricky Banderas. Tonight on Wrestling Society X, these two gladiators enter the ring, with the richest prize in WSX on the line. We've seen Banderas reign of terror inside the WSX bunker (watch the friggin' marathon – you'll see what we mean. Man, was he an a****** in episode 6!). We've learned the two men's sorted history in Puerto Rico some time ago (Trust us, watch and you will understand. We strive for logic!). Nevertheless, this week, there MUST BE A WINNER. Vampiro nearly had to kill himself in order to be reborn anew and win the title from 6-Pac, what price will Vampiro be willing to pay to hold on to the title? What will "The Dark Prophet", the monster, do to Vampiro once he gets his hands on him in the ring? More significantly, how far will these men go in order to become champion? Two men, one title, a history of flame! Tonight on WSX! We present the World Title grudge match of the year.

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Pitbull and more hot off the heels of last week's vicious gang attack on WSXtra!

WSXTra will feature the return of Team Dragon Gate (Masato Yoshino & Genki Horiguchi) vs. D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) and Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. The Masked Dream Team of El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado & Matt Classic vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine) and THE DANCE OFF between Jack Evans & Human Tornado!

Episode 9 - 1:00 am EST /PST

TRASH TALK BRAWL MATCH! - Alkatrazz & Luke vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon & His Mystery Partner
It doesn't really give too much away to tell you that Luke, once again said the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time. Harsh words were spoken, violent tempers raged, flying fists flew, and chaos ensued. Just a normal day in the WSX Bunker. However, Cannon challenged the out of control duo to a match this week on WSX. Will Cannon shut Luke's mouth for good with fists and elbows, or will Cannon and company spend some time in solitary confinement?

AWARD WINNER + DEGENERATE = CHAOS - 6-Pac vs. Scorpio Sky
He may have won Most Likely to Succeed at Montclair High, but Award Winning Scorpio Sky has not racked up the victories like he racked up trophies and digits back in the day. But still, his enormous ego is as inflated as a hot air balloon. Pac, on the other hand, is still on a rampage since not winning the WSX title! The degenerate who lives the surreal life is looking to remain undefeated since his loss to Vampiro and plans to smoke Sky!

EPIC NEXT GENERATION DREAM DESTINY MATCH - "The Prince of Parkland" Jack Evans vs. Human Tornado
Two of the brightest next generation stars in Wrestling Society X finally will do battle this week! The undefeated Ariel Emperor, The Price Of Parkland, and man of 1000 nicknames Jack Evans will be facing Human Tornado in which should be a classic match. Concurrently both men are extremely popular and have all the moves in the ring, as illustrated in their WSXtra publicized Dance Off (WSXtra Episode 8) all the moves on the dance floor. The men may have fought to a draw under the ol' School dance off rules but this week, they'll be doing more then just dancing. They'll be facing each other in the ring. This is the most important match of these young stars career. For Jack Evans, he's been tearing thru the next generation of competition in WSX, and the Tornado is one of the few men he has not defeated. For Human Tornado wants to show he's the top Next Generation star in WSX and put an end to Jack's streak. His record is almost spotless, and he's coming in bringing his a-game. This isn't about hate, this isn't about dancing, this isn't about ToranHo's or Evans-Maniacs, this is about two men just getting in the ring and proving who is the best! Prepare to witness the evolution of the Next Generation, in the ring!

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Styles P

WSXTra will feature the two heated tag team rivalry between the Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. Keep It Gangsta, D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine)

It¹s TONIGHT at 11 PM EST/PST, only on MTV and only airing ONCE! Be sure to catch it before it¹s too late!!! Support the next generation of pro wrestling! And stay tuned for information on the EXPLOSIVE (ok, NOW the pun is intended) season finale of WRESTLING SOCIETY X!

FILTH & FURY'S UNDEFEATED STREAK IS ON THE LINE! - Los Pochos Guapos vs. The Filth & The Fury
In which should be an explosive contest (no pun intended, seriously. . .), the undefeated Filth & Fury (Teddy Hart & Matt Cross) will do battle with Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Munoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera). Los Pochos are still at odds when it comes to team unity. Aguilera is too focused on the mamacitas, carvezas, and disco's balls(?) which is driving Kaos insane. Keep in mind, when they are on the same page, Los Poncho's are a fantastic team in the vein of other classic Latino tag teams in wrestling history such as Pedro Morales y Carlos Colon, Los Fabulosos (Silver King y El Dandy) and The Conquistadors (Uno y Dos). Kaos wants to work together with Aguilera, as the next generation of American Latino superstar athletes, can these two work together towards a common goal and stop the Filth & Fury's high flying adrenaline rush?

COCKY COVERBOY, MEET TORNADO - Human Tornado vs. Matt Sydal (with Lizzy Valentine)
Coming off a few weeks of distraction with 6-Pac, the P-I-M-P of WSX is back in the WSX Bunker again to entertain his legions of fans, the TornaHOs, on Wrestling Society X! The man with all the moves and more game then Sega will be looking to return to his winning ways. However, he's not going to the ring against a chump or a chimp, he's going to the ring against the cocky coverboy Matt Sydal. Sydal, along with his beautiful girlfriend Lizzy Valentine has been on a tear lately and tonight he wants to show everyone that he's just not another ridiculously sinfully handsome pretty face. "Calvin, Donatella, Stella be dammed, I'm taking a hiatus from the catwalk until I am on top of my game in WSX!" Matt said while looking in his hand mirror. "And when I come back, male modeling world be ready, because I'm getting better looking every day!" Matt's main squeeze Lizzy laughed in approval as she quickly folded up a yellow note addressed to "Peaches"

WHO OR WHAT IS CANNON'S BACKUP?
Plus, Arik Cannon is back in action, but this time, he's got backup! (We don't want to give too much away before you watch this little marathon now do we. . .?)

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Quietdrive

Also check out WSXTra this week featuring Keepin' It Gangsta ("King Of Bling" Babi Slymm & "The Regulator Of The Ring" Ruckus)vs. Alkatrazz & Luke and Award Winning Scorpio Sky faces the Youth Suicide in Suicides' second professional match!

Episode 8 - 12:30 am EST/PST

FINALLY, THE MATCH! - WSX Championship: Vampiro vs. Ricky Banderas
The wait is over. And now, for the first time in WSX history, Vampiro puts his WSX Championship on the line. However, the steaks have never been higher, the action never so hard hitting and oh so personal, as tonight Vampiro will be facing the man whose face is forever altered due to his own hands, Ricky Banderas. Tonight on Wrestling Society X, these two gladiators enter the ring, with the richest prize in WSX on the line. We've seen Banderas reign of terror inside the WSX bunker (watch the friggin' marathon – you'll see what we mean. Man, was he an a****** in episode 6!). We've learned the two men's sorted history in Puerto Rico some time ago (Trust us, watch and you will understand. We strive for logic!). Nevertheless, this week, there MUST BE A WINNER. Vampiro nearly had to kill himself in order to be reborn anew and win the title from 6-Pac, what price will Vampiro be willing to pay to hold on to the title? What will "The Dark Prophet", the monster, do to Vampiro once he gets his hands on him in the ring? More significantly, how far will these men go in order to become champion? Two men, one title, a history of flame! Tonight on WSX! We present the World Title grudge match of the year.

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Pitbull and more hot off the heels of last week's vicious gang attack on WSXtra!

WSXTra will feature the return of Team Dragon Gate (Masato Yoshino & Genki Horiguchi) vs. D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) and Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. The Masked Dream Team of El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado & Matt Classic vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine) and THE DANCE OFF between Jack Evans & Human Tornado!

Episode 9 - 1:00 am EST/PST

TRASH TALK BRAWL MATCH! - Alkatrazz & Luke vs. "The Anarchist" Arik Cannon & His Mystery Partner
It doesn't really give too much away to tell you that Luke, once again said the wrong thing to the wrong person at the wrong time. Harsh words were spoken, violent tempers raged, flying fists flew, and chaos ensued. Just a normal day in the WSX Bunker. However, Cannon challenged the out of control duo to a match this week on WSX. Will Cannon shut Luke's mouth for good with fists and elbows, or will Cannon and company spend some time in solitary confinement?

AWARD WINNER + DEGENERATE = CHAOS - 6-Pac vs. Scorpio Sky
He may have won Most Likely to Succeed at Montclair High, but Award Winning Scorpio Sky has not racked up the victories like he racked up trophies and digits back in the day. But still, his enormous ego is as inflated as a hot air balloon. Pac, on the other hand, is still on a rampage since not winning the WSX title! The degenerate who lives the surreal life is looking to remain undefeated since his loss to Vampiro and plans to smoke Sky!

EPIC NEXT GENERATION DREAM DESTINY MATCH - "The Prince of Parkland" Jack Evans vs. Human Tornado
Two of the brightest next generation stars in Wrestling Society X finally will do battle this week! The undefeated Ariel Emperor, The Price Of Parkland, and man of 1000 nicknames Jack Evans will be facing Human Tornado in which should be a classic match. Concurrently both men are extremely popular and have all the moves in the ring, as illustrated in their WSXtra publicized Dance Off (WSXtra Episode 8) all the moves on the dance floor. The men may have fought to a draw under the ol' School dance off rules but this week, they'll be doing more then just dancing. They'll be facing each other in the ring. This is the most important match of these young stars career. For Jack Evans, he's been tearing thru the next generation of competition in WSX, and the Tornado is one of the few men he has not defeated. For Human Tornado wants to show he's the top Next Generation star in WSX and put an end to Jack's streak. His record is almost spotless, and he's coming in bringing his a-game. This isn't about hate, this isn't about dancing, this isn't about ToranHo's or Evans-Maniacs, this is about two men just getting in the ring and proving who is the best! Prepare to witness the evolution of the Next Generation, in the ring!

Plus a performance from Musical Guest Styles P

WSXTra will feature the two heated tag team rivalry between the Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb) vs. Keep It Gangsta, D.I.F.H. (Tyler Black & Jimmy Jacobs) vs. That 70s Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine)

It¹s all next Tuesday night, starting at 11 PM, only on MTV and only airing ONCE! Be sure to catch it before it¹s too late!!! Support the next generation of pro wrestling! And stay tuned for information on the EXPLOSIVE (ok, NOW the pun is intended) season finale of WRESTLING SOCIETY X!

Tomorrow Night on MTV!!! WSX!

Last week, fuel in the form of Tables Ladders and Cerveza was added to the Wrestling Society X fire! The smoke signals coming out of the WSX Bunker spoke volumes! Just in case you can't read smoke signals, let me translate for you, "The action is getting hotter, faster, louder, and more insane!" Wrestling Society X is taking names and truly television changing Tuesday nights!' This week on Wrestling Society X, we promise more debuts, challenges, high flying, last and certainly not least, more Wamp Wamp!

SCORPIO SKY'S AWARD WINNING TELEVISION DEBUT
"The Cocky Coverboy" Matt Sydal (with Lizzy Valentine) vs. "The Greatest" Scorpio Sky
Last week on WSXtra we were not so-formally introduced to the winner of the "Most Likely to Succeed" and "Best Athlete" Awards from Montclair High (Class of 2000 Rulez!), the one and only Scorpio Sky! "The Greatest" also an impression and his pager number on an autographed 8X10 to WSXtra host Lacey who probably hung it up on her bedroom wall next to her autographed picture of Corey Haim signed by Corey Feldman. Anyway, Scorpio showed last week that he can talk the talk against Matt Classic, but can he walk the walk? The man with the skillz to pay the billz is going to have a tough test ahead as he will be facing someone as cocky as he is. - the cover star of the June 2004 issue of International Male Catalog, Matt Sydal! With his beautiful girlfriend Lizzy Valentine in tow (who if you believe PerezHilton.com and EgoTastic.com has got a new outfit to debut this week) are looking forward to avenging the heartbreaking loss to Jack Evans three weeks ago. These two New Generation stars will be taking to the air and to the mat in a ballet of wrestling excellence, as tonight you will bear witness to this classic battle between arrogance vs. ego!

TAG TEAM CHALLENGE? Will Keepin' It Gangsta (Babi Slymm & Ruckus) keep it real?
When we last turned into WSXtra, we saw Keepin' It Gangsta show up late to the WSX party, and saw the wreckage of the Tables Ladders and Cerveza match. Broken bottles, broken tables, crushed dreams (well you couldn't see them, but our sources say they were there!), and a ladder which was stolen I mean "borrowed" by mischievous Ruckus. We've heard rumblings this week they're looking to call out any tag team in the WSX Bunker! In an exclusive interview with WSX.MTV.COM, Babi Slymm told us "I don't care, I want some asses tonight! We might have been late to the party last week, but according to my totally blinged out $20,000 watch, its time to watch a team get…" He paused for a second, looked at Ruckus, then when Ruckus had a "what did I do now?" look and hit Ruckus in the head "K.T.F.O.!" Babi also said "I don't care which team gets us tonight, weather it's the emo boys and their eyeliner, disco and his balls, those rednecks and their jug full of moonshine, or those goofy looking pigeons (WSX.MTV.COM did not ask for elaboration on which team he was talking about). Any team is steppin up; you're going down to 'The King of Bling' and the "Regulator of the Ring.' Because that's how we do it, and when we do it, you know we always KEEP IT GANGTSA! Babi then did a lovely little dance to end off the interview.

NEXT GENERATION HIJINX
El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado vs. The Human Tornado
Two of Wrestling Society X's most exciting high flying up and comers will rumble in which looks on paper to be the makings of a classic battle. The Human Tornado, the pride and joy of Hollywood…Alabama, and the joy of every single one of his torandHOs, makes his triumphant return to the WSX Bunker. This time, the P-I-M-P is going to be facing the man with the M-A-S-K from just North of the Border, El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado. Looking to avenge his loss last week to the undefeated Jack Evans, EHBE (a nickname for El Hombre which will never stick) has challenged the only other undefeated next generation singles star in WSX and s looking forward to lucha libre engagement with the wrestling storm system known has Human Tornado. However, Tornado has had some experience in Lucha Libre, as he played the role of El Snowflake in Nacho Libre. This is no Hollywood production, this is Wrestling Society X! Can the Tornado get another impressive victory or is this El Hombre's time to shine and do his celebratory hat dance? We will soon find out!

UPDATE: Word on the street is that Sean "6-Pac" Waltman will be back in the WSX Bunker this week, and this degenerate isn't too happy about WSX Champion Vampiro piledriving him into an EXPLODING COFFIN to win the title!

Plus Clipse performs their smash hit Wamp Wamp! What it Do! What It Do!

Also, check out the other half of the delicious pie of WSX goodness, known as WSXtra . . . hosted by Lacey and ring announcer Fabian Kailen and featuring recaps, interviews and bonus matches. This week, it's a WSXtra homecoming for D.I.F.H ("Hardcore" Tyler Black & "Soft Hair" Jimmy Jacobs) however it might be the emotional night as they have to face the Japanese homecoming kings from Team Dragon Gate in Yoshino and Horiguchi! Can Jimmy Jacobs keep his eyes on the prize rather then the cute girl in the front row who looks like she makes a great grilled cheese sandwich or are DIFH, in the words of the immortal Winger, "Headed for a Heartbreak?" In addition, last time on WSXtra we met newcomer Marcus Riot and saw him meet his idol Jack Evans outside the WSX Bunker. However, after he gave the Ariel Emperor his "best of" DVD, Marcus left with bad taste after Jack's first lesson and low blow about how to get into Wrestling Society X. But the Prince of Parkland was not completely heartless. He was able to get Riot a match on the show this week. The only catch – it will be against Evans himself! Will Jack administer another lesson to young Marcus as they meet for a one on one match up? Check it out online at WSX.MTV.COM

Tonight, on Wrestling Society X , wrestling history will be yet again at 10:30pm EST/PST on Music Television Network (MTV)! As one of professional wrestling greatest living legends makes his epic cable television debut.

A throwback to the old school wrestlers of the 1950s and 60s, this ring technician is out to prove that high flying, death defying moves aren't the only way too win a wrestling match.

Enjoy The Show!

WSX Tonight!

Tonight 10:30 PM EST/PST ONLY ON MTV. a marvellous NEW episode of Wrestling Society X, featuring the in-ring television debuts of Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross, from any damn trailer park they please - the Trailer Park Boyz (Josh "Jug" Raymond & "Spyder" Nate Webb), and from just north of the border, El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado. Plus the returns of Teddy Hart and Jack Evans! A very special preview video featuring WSXtra's Matt Classic! Newly crowned WSX Champion Vampiro speaks for the FIRST TIME since his war with 6-Pac last week and becoming the first WSX Champion! And last and certainly not least the MAIN EVENT - first ever TLC – Tables, Ladders, and Cerveza match. TV GUIDE Channel says it's "WHAT TO WATCH THIS WEEK" on TV! Here is the lineup for tonight at 10:30pm EST/PST on MTV!

- "The Prince Of Parkland" Jack Evans vs. the debuting El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado

- The Trailer Park Boyz (Nate Webb & Josh Abercrombie) vs. The Filth & The Fury (Teddy Hart & M-Dogg 20 Matt Cross).

- TLC (Tables, Ladders & Cerveza) Match: Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Muñoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera) vs. Luke Hawx & Alkatrazz

- A very special Matt Classic video!

- WSX Champion Vampiro speaks!

- Musical guests Sparta perform and join WSX's commentary team.

Last week:

Vamprio survived his war with 6-Pac, who was blown to hell in Vampiro's casket as Vampiro became the first ever Wrestling Society X Champion!

Team Dragon Gate, all the way from the land of the rising sun, debuted, but were defeated by That 70s Team despite Joey Ryan's asthma handicap.

And, Human Tornado scored a pinfall victory over Luke Hawx, but that wouldn't be the end of Luke's action as Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera jumped him after the match in an attempt to make it up to his tag team partner Kaos for not being there for him in the WSX Rumble and allowing Luke and Alkatrazz to eliminate him into a box of live electric wires. Unfortunately, for Kaos, in the end he fell victim to the prison bound duo and ended up getting kicked off of the top rope and through a table as Aguilera flirted with the "mamacitas" at ringside. To say that Kaos was upset would be an understatement!

World championship matches, exploding coffins, lightening quick Japanese wrestlers, and the mamacitas, how can Wrestling Society X possibly top last week's episode?

Simple, by bringing in the tables, ladders, cerveza, a trailer, a prince, a masked man, "White Trash" Johnny Webb, and the Filth and Fury! Wow. There ain't no party like a WSX party, and this week, that WSX party don't stop!

Tag Team Action: The Trailer Park Boyz vs. The Filth & The Fury
Witness the television debut of two more of WSX's deep lineup of fine tag teams. First off, from Trailer Park City, USA (better known as "any damn trailer they please") comes "Spyder" Nate Webb and Josh "Jug" Raymond, the Trailer Park Boyz. They came up to live in their Uncle "White Trash" Johnny Webb's trailer in order to escape their surroundings and are now in WSX working for the American dream: a sweet double wide! After meeting up with Three-6 Mafia on WSXtra last week, we saw Spyder & Jug aren't just here for a ho-down, they're here to kick ass, take names, and eat something other then Grandma Raymond's "critters." Yes, they want to live the high life, but standing in their way is the debut of the much anticipated tag-team of the Filth & the Fury. The Filth: Cleveland Ohio's favorite son Matt "M-Dogg 20" Cross, byw legend, and amazing high flyer. The Fury: From Calgary, Alberta, Canada, the third generation of the legendary Hart wrestling family, the one and only Teddy Hart. Known for his brashness and fury in and out of the ring, Teddy is an amazingly talented athlete. He's also confident they are the BEST TAG TEAM IN THE WORLD! This week, they get a chance to prove it. It's more than a culture clash; it's a battle for the next generation of tag team wrestling!

High Flying Dogfight: "The Prince Of Parkland" Jack Evans vs. El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado
By popular demand, Jack is back! Yes, Jack Evans (from the heavens) steps back inside the WSX Bunker for another wrestling highlight film. This week, he's facing a man from just a little north of the border, the mysterious El Hombre Blanco Enmascarado. El Hombre is a seasoned veteran of Lucha Libre, the Mexican art of professional wrestling as he's watched El Santo vs. the Vampire Women at least 100 times! However, he'll need more then the savage Vampire Women to defeat the aerial emperor, the admiral of aviation, and the man who put P-Town Washington on the map, Jack Evans. Witness the quickness, as these two men battle on the mat, in the air, and all over the WSX bunker!

Tables Ladders & Cerveza: Los Pochos Guapos (Joey "Kaos" Muñoz & Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera) vs. Luke Hawx & Alkatrazz
As seen on WSXtra last week, Kaos still suffering from the effects of being put thru a table was upset at his partner Aguilera for not being focused and thinking about the mamacitas as opposed what was going on inside the ring. Kaos was so irate he threw his partners own delicious cerveza down. That's ice cold! Aguilera, feeling he NOW had the way to make it up to Kaos, decided that they should challenge the out of control and out of bail duo of Luke Hawx & the monster Alkatrazz to pro wrestling's first ever Tables Ladders & Cerveza match. The tables are legal. The ladders are legal! And the Cerveza (since both teams are above the legal drinking age in the state of California) are legal! Can Los Ponchos Guapos find their focus? Or will Luke & Alkatrazz send them back to penitentiary?

Plus musical guests Sparta perform and join WSX's commentary team.

Don't forget about the second half of the WSX Experience - WSXtra hosted by the lovely Lacey and Fabian Kaelin. This week! The Award Winning Scorpio Sky debuts, America's favorite masked man - Matt Classic returns for a WSX encore, and the loveable emo boys of "Angry" Tyler Black & "Sensitive" Jimmy Jacobs of D.I.F.H. attempt to stop That 70's Team (Joey "Magnum" Ryan & Disco Machine) winning ways. Will that 70's Team have a nice day or will they witness an emotional explosion? Also fun with Jack Evans-Marcus Riot, as well as Keepin' It Gangsta (Ruckus & Babi Slymm)!

WSX Episode III Preview

By Keith Lipinski

Last week:

Vamprio survived his war with 6-Pac, who was blown to hell in Vampiro's casket as Vampiro became the first ever Wrestling Society X Champion!

Team Dragon Gate, all the way from the land of the rising sun, debuted, but were defeated by That 70s Team despite Joey Ryan's asthma handicap.

And, Human Tornado scored a pinfall victory over Luke, but that wouldn't be the end of Luke's action as Aaron "Jesus" Aguilera jumped him after the match in an attempt to make it up to his tag team partner Kaos for not being there for him in the WSX Rumble and allowing Luke and Alkatrazz to eliminate him into a box of live electric wires. Unfortunately, for Kaos, in the end he fell victim to the prison bound duo and ended up getting kicked off of the top rope and through a table as Aguilera flirted with the "mamacitas" at ringside. To say that Kaos was upset would be an understatement!

World championship matches, exploding coffins, lightening quick Japanese wrestlers, and the mamacitas, how can Wrestling Society X possibly top last week's episode?

Simple, by bringing in the tables, ladders, cerveza, a trailer, a prince, a masked man, "White Trash" Johnny Webb, and the Filth and Fury! Wow. There ain't no party like a WSX party, and this week, that WSX party don't stop!

Tag Team Action: The Trailer Park Boyz vs. The Filth & The Fury
Witness the television debut of two more of WSX's deep lineup of fine tag teams. First off, from Trailer Park City, USA (better known as "any damn trailer they please") comes "Spyder" Nate Webb and Josh "Jug" Raymond, the Trailer Park Boyz. They came up to live in their Uncle "White Trash" Johnny Webb's trailer in order to escape their surroundings and are now in WSX working for the American dream: a sweet double wide! After meeting up with Three-6 Mafia on WSXtra last week, we saw Spyder & Jug aren't just here for a ho-down, they're here to kick ass, take names, and eat something other then Grandma Raymond's "critters."

A look back at: MTV's Wrestling Society X premiere

By Art Shimko
shimko_7@hotmail.com

-- So after reading about MTV's "new rasslin' promotion" in the form of a weekly television series through taping reports and such the WSX pilot episode aired Friday night. I just have to say this has been the most televised wrestling I've watched which also included UFC, TNA, ECW and 2 WWE shows I endured this week... anyway, let's get to the meat of the matter.

Show was opened by Black Label Society (BLS to all you hip metal folk) thrashin' out a tune followed by former XPW commentator Kris Kloss and some dude who's name I didn't bother remembering opening the show. Zakk Wylde from BLS joins in to do color, first match in this staged "dingy rathole" underground setting is Jack Evans vs. Matt Sydal. Sydal had a lovely young lass by his side named Lizzy Valentine, cute lil' blonde, I guess they're like the popular "Biff n' Muffy"-type high school couple. If you've seen either man work together or separately this was typical as Evans and Sydal pulled out one spot after another at quite the breakneck speed. Oh, the crowd... yeah go to a mall and/or Hot Topic and you'll see the same lame-ass crowd as the one watching this show in person. Evans won the match and gave Lizzy the "googly eyes". I liked this match, reminded me of what I've seen at indy shows, fun opening match.

Another thing, XPW's GQ Money's doing the ring announcing and boy he was way too energetic, a bit contrived for me personally.

This is only a 30-minute show (THANK GOD~!) so the only other match tonight was the WSX RUMBLE~! Basically a Royal Rumble match only with ten guys and includes tables, ladders and chairs plus explosive shit and canned crowd reaction. There are two contracts above the ring, the ones who retrieve those contracts wrestle for the WSX title next week. The participants were: Justin Credible, Teddy Hart, Kaos, Vampiro, Puma, All Katrazz, 6-Pac (the other announcer puts over DX), Chris Hamrick, New Jack and Youth Suicide (trained by "Deathmatch Legend" Supreme, who you know, ranks up there with Onita, Cactus, Funk and Kudo). Just tons of shit going on at once like usual Rumbles, Kaos bites the big one and lands in an explosive box, Youth falls onto an explosive cage on the side of the ring. Explosions come off cheesy, nothing like the old FMW matches which I don't expect WSX to replicate at all but either you have EXPLOSIONS or you don't. Pac and Vamp both get the contracts and face each other next week (not this Tuesday but the following week).

Overall thoughts, well if Monday Night Raw, better yet... if TNA Impact drank gallons of coffee, sniffed a mile-long line of coke, bumped some speed - and shaved off a half-hour... that's pretty much how WSX felt. Very fast-paced to satisfy the short attention spans which MTV thrives upon. It's funny how this just comes off as a television show with wrestling elements rather than an actual wrestling show which is what the producers and/or the network are going for. As I wrote earlier, I enjoyed the first match and the Rumble was okay, a lot happening in 13 minutes. If I remember to catch this on Tuesdays I'll watch, I stopped watching ECW on Tuesday nights so I'm still thinking there aren't any wrestling shows that night. If you missed the premiere, it's on again this Tuesday at 10:30PM.
