MTV. If they went with a less-shitty network they may be still going. Sure the fireball was bad, but they've shown so much more crap on MTV like that.
Such a shame.

To me the show was just fun. It wasn't a lengthy show that prided itself on the technical arts of wrestling. It was more just a fan show. Plus you cannot possibly say it was booked poorly.

The production value was abysmal. The commentating was terrible, the camera shots were confusing, all the damn explosions, and a horrible audience

MTV, They knew what they wanted to do (WSX) but they watered them down so heavily.

Its almost as if they wanted WSX to fail. Bingo. It's pretty obvious that to get a show over, and to get good ratings, you have to market it properly. It's not like viewers are just going to tune in magically, right? |

1. On the site, they say cast bios instead of wrestlers bios.
2. The fact that the biggest star you have is X-Pac.

Anyone who says the explosions or any other of that crap is an idiot. The explosions didn't kill WSX. It might have turned some people off but it didn't kill it. MTV killed it because as mentioned MTV didn't seem to care and wanted it to fail. Running against ECW didn't help matters either.

Where do i start
1. Only being a half hour
2. Vampiro and Waltman are you two "stars"
3. Hardcore does not have a mainstream audience these days.
4. MTV + Wrestling= Fail

The same thing that's responsible for killing music, MTV. I don't see why they thought getting a shitty TV deal with a station that's viewed mainly by a bunch of immature trendy preppy bitches would get them far in the wrestling buisness....that's just a mysterious unsolved mystery.
"LYK OMGZ! I SAWZ DAT SHOWZ ON DA MTV LAST NIHTT! I LIKE IT!!@! EVEN THOUGH I ALWAYS SHITTTT ON WRESSSSLING, MY FRIEND LIKES IT AND IT'S ON MTV SO I LIKE IT! RAABASS AAA ABERCROMBIE GIFTCARD! AND MY CHEMICALAAA ROMMANANACEEEEE"

I watched WSX twice, and it seemed really hard to follow. It was like a wrestling show with ADD. They went from spot to spot, and edited out the transitions (if there ever were any... chances are there were).
I actually loved some of the action, but it came across like a stunt show disguised as a wrestling group, rather than a wrestling group where guys occasionally did cool moves.
