-- 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.

Mania 24 venue, Roids in the news, RVD, J.R advice, Austin/fight scenes, Pride sale and lawsuit, more

By Art Shimko
shimko_7@hotmail.com

-- As reported here earlier today, Wrestlemania 24 takes place at Orlando's Citrus Bowl next March. Meanwhile, the Sports Illustrated steroids article involving 11 WWE wrestlers named has made the rounds in the press the last two days including Ken Doane/Dykstra defending the Fed while on a press tour in Canada for Mania. "If people want to look for substances, why don't they just look at bodybuilders? Look at those guys." Well this probe into the questionable acquisition of HGH and steroids by WWE wrestlers will lead to other major athletes in MLB, the NFL, etc. being investigated. It's really not a huge story in wrestling but rather the ramifications of this story in the mainstream will lead to other sports and its organizations finding how many of their athletes are on the gas.

-- On ECW TV this past Tuesday night Ed Farhat AKA The Sheik was named as the latest inductee into this year's Hall Of Fame.

-- An interview with RVD about life on the road, spending time with his wife, training and how there's too much music in the world (?)...

-- WrestleMag.com has an interview with Chris Benoit.

-- Steve Austin on fight scenes in The Condemned: "People always say, 'Well, Steve, doing the fight scenes, wasn't that easy for you because that's what you did for a living?' And I stress to people, 'No, that's not what I did for a living. I was a professional wrestler.' And contrary to what many people think, you don't just rehearse and choreograph a wrestling match. ... In a ring, in an arena, say, a normal ring is, like, 20,000 people, [and] you're playing to the absolutely last row there. ... So everything is big. Of course, when you're talking [filming], you go in tight. Everything is very precise and very controlled. So there's a lot of differences." more at www.scifi.com.

-- J.R.'s latest blog which features this interesting bit: Please do not believe every word written on every wrestling website. Whoever wrote that The Undertaker was retiring in the summer of 2008 is either making it up or is really, really gullible. I communicate with Taker frequently and that subject has never been discussed. Unless injuries take their toll, Taker will be around in at least a part time role for years to come. Frankly this is the first I've heard of this, there's talk on and off regarding when Taker will hang up his boots and this could've been something written on a message board and most entries posted on those forums are to be taken with a grain of salt to begin with.

-- Good Guy at School, Bad Guy in Ring

-- Well the future on WSX on MTV is pretty much falls between in-limbo and dead in the water yet is seems that MTV2 and MTV Tr3s are airing the episodes. You'll have to check your TV listings for times on MTV2 as those airings seem to be kept under wraps for some reason, MTV Tr3s airs the show on Wednesdays at 5:30PM so the final episode may air but who knows at this point.

-- Is PRIDE sold? Will UFC buy the company? Or K-1? Sherdog.com reported on Monday that PRIDE was possibly being bought by Frank and Lorenzo Fertitta, the owners of Zuffa for an estimated $65 million. MMAWeekly.com also posted a report although their sources stated an agreement had been made yet not finalized while Sherdog's sources say an announcement could be made next week of the sale being a done deal. The only person who has responded to these reports/rumors was PRIDE USA Vice President Jerry Millen making a statement to GracieFighter.com: "It's bullshit. You can't beleive [sic] what you read on the internet and as a matter of fact I just got off the phone with Japan and Pride has not been sold and is not being sold to anyone, especially to Zuffa. We are in the process of making some ground breaking deals that will be bringing in large sums of revenue to the company and making it stronger than ever." We'll see how this one turns out as the fate of PRIDE get more mysterious every week.

-- In more PRIDE DRAMA®, Ed Fishman (PRIDE'S US President) filed a breach-of-contract suit with Dream Stage Entertainment (parent company of PRIDE) on Monday claiming the company had not paid him the agreed 10% of ticket sales from both the 11/21/06 and 2/24/07 Las Vegas shows. This was part of a three-year contract in which Fishman would recieve $200,000 a year for three years with the option to extend it to five years, then 10% of US tickets sales would go to Fishman. In the end Fishman's seeking $10 million from DSE: $1 million for based on the $200,000 consulting fee for 5 years; and $9 million based on DSE CEO Nobuyuki Sakakibara's US live event projections for 6 PRIDE US events with $3-4 million for live gates, thus factoring approximately $1.8 million a year for five years (based on the 10% from live gates that would be owed to Fishman). More info can be read at www.fightopinion.com and www.sherdog.com.

TONIGHT! ON MTV! WSX MARATHON!

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)

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

Next Tuesday night 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!

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 Torando's challenge?
As the beautiful Lacey was getting ready to host WSXtra last week, the Human Torando regained consciousness and challenged the man who attacked him from behind with a num-chuck last week, the one and only 6-Pac! Torando 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!

(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

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.

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

Kris Kloss Shoots On The Now Infamous WSX "Fireball Incident" & More! (2/19 MNM)

The play-by-play man for MTV's Wrestling Society X & the former voice for XPW, Kris Kloss, was one the special guests on this past week's edition (2/19/07) of Monday Night Mayhem (w/The Big Mosh, Blade, & The Angry Hero), which can be heard in streaming audio every week (and live at 9PM ET/8PM CT every Monday night) exclusively on The Monday Night Mayhem Radio Network (www.MondayNightMayhem.com, www.ObsessedWithWrestling.com, www.ProWrestlingPress.com, www.AllWNYRadio.com, & www.AudioWrestling.com -- your official home of "The Spring Break Incident" Video-On-Demand, featuring former WWE Diva, Stacy Keibler).

Kloss' first Mayhem appearance/interview is now available to hear for FREE in Real Audio!

Here are some of the highlights from the interview conducted by The Big Mosh & Blade (courtesy: Mayhem listener & official recapper, The extreme Icon):

==============================================================================

*Kris believes that the now "infamous" fireball spot (in the Vampiro/Ricky Banderas match) was controversial as far as the network was concerned.

*Says that WSX wanted to stay "true to their product" and not pull anything, due to the nature or the network itself.

*WSX will air next week (Tuesday, February 27th, 10:30PM ET/PT), after being pre-empted this past Tuesday night. Kris also added on the news that Wrestling Society X is not cancelled, and that some people were just "jumping the gun," when they first heard the news last week.

*WSX is still negotiating with MTV to do a second season of Wrestling Society X.

*WSX is getting a lot of positive feedback about the shows, and that people keep saying that the shows are improving on a weekly basis.

*He talked about going against ECW On Sci-Fi, and said that he doesn't mind it, but all he wants is for WSX to be promoted and to have more people behind the WSX product.

*Mosh & Blade talked about Kris' famous catchphrase "AHHHHHH." Kris said that he thought of that particular one first. When a highspot happens its "AHHHHHH," but when a hot girl like Lizzy Valentine walks by its "ahhhhhh."

*He said that he just ran into Rivera, his former XPW colleague/commentator, at a recent Roller Derby show.

*Kris believes that "extreme wrestling was on a high" several years back, and that XPW truly "took it to the west coast." They tried to take the "extreme matches" to a higher level, and push some of the lesser-known stars.

*WSX Champion, Vampiro, is a natural leader, and is trying to help all of the talent in Wrestling Society X do better in their respective careers.

*Kris wished to add that fans should give Wrestling Society X a chance/give it attention, and watch for the 30 minute ride every Tuesday night. He guarantees that no one will get bored while watching it.

*Kris closed out the interview by saying that WSX is giving the "hardcore fans" something to watch. Hardcore Wrestling has been banned for so long, and that the fans of "hardcore matches" have to get those style matches through DVD & video. Now, Wrestling Society X is giving the fans what they want to see."

You can catch the return of Wrestling Society X at 10:30PM ET/PT, beginning next Tuesday night, February 27th.

And if you e-mail MondayNightMayhem@hotmail.com with your best Kris Kloss impression or recollection of XPW's Hardcore Homo, you can have the chance to win a copy of the "XPW: After The Fall DVD," exclusively from Big Vision Entertainment & The Mayhem.
