411’s WSX Report 01.30.07

January 30, 2007 | Posted by Larry Csonka

Editor’s Note: I don’t plan on normally covering the show. I am covering the early airing because John Gregory, who will be doing the normal recap, works Friday’s and I told him I had him covered. For those wondering I may do the alternate recap of the show and I may try to find a way to work this into the 3R’s column.

Another Editor’s Note: This recap is of the 01.26.07 airing, which was identical to the 01.30.07 “debut” airing.

    -Back from commercial and Justin Credible cuts a promo on the battle royal, it will be Just Incredible. NEW JACK TALKS! TEDDY HART TALKS~! Glorious!

    -The 10 guys drew numbers, ala the rumble. Once all 10 guys are in, the contracts come into play. There are tables and electric shit to shock the guys. This is reverse battle royal complicated almost.

    Over the Top Rope Elimination/Ladder Bout for Two WSX Contacts: Vampiro vs. 6 Pac vs. Teddy Hart vs. New Jack vs. Youth Suicide vs. Kaos vs. Puma vs. Al Katrazz vs. Justin Credible vs. Chris Hamrick The two men that get the contacts will face off in a title match to crown the first ever WSX Champion!

    #1 is Justin Credible. #2 Teddy Hart! He throws a water bottle at Credible and shit is on. Teddy with a crazy tackle and dropkick. Up top and a moonsault for no reason and Credible levels him. Rights by Credible, and then a moonsault by Hart. Boot to Credible and #3 is Kaos. He gets attacked as he enters the ring. Dual clothesline by Kaos, and then Hart gets a SICK IMPLANT DDT! Hart up top, SHOTING STAR ELBOW to Kaos as Credible held him. There is no selling at all here. #4 is Vampiro! Clotheslines for all. Hart with rights, misses a charge and Vamp with spin kicks. CHOKE SLAM to Hart! We head to a commercial @ 2:45.

    Back from commercial @ 6:30. Puma was in and tossed. All Katrazz also entered. #7 I believe is 6-Pac. Pac in and he and Credible go at it. Pac-Buster. The announcers discuss DX as he cleans house. Chops to Hart, boots, Bronco Buster to Hart. #8 is Chris Hamrick. New Jack just charges in now. He attacks Hamrick and lays him out. Off the ropes and New Jack tosses Hamrick through a table and he is gone. New Jack to the floor and he eliminates himself. He has a guitar and dances…and KILLS a ref with it. Powerslam by Vamp to Kaos. Moonsault by Hart on Kaos. New Jack climbs up on the set and Kaos INTO THE EXPLODING BOX! DIVE BY NEW JACK! Hart with a cool DDT on Vamp. #10 is Youth Suicide. Credible tosses Hart through a table and he is gone, the contracts are game now. Thumbtacks now and ladders are in. Suicide sets up a ladder, climbs…Vamp has him and Powerbombs him into the tacks! Pac climbs the ladder and has a contract. He leaves and celebrates. Credible and Vamp battle as Suicide gets tosses onto an insanely gimmicked exploding cage! Vamp with a big Yakuza on Credible. They both climb the ladder now. Pac tips the ladder as Vamp gets the contract.

    Winners: 6-Pac and Vampiro @ 12:56

    -We get clips from upcoming episodes.

    -Pac and Vampiro brawl as the show ends.

    The 411: Well this was the debut…and it was something. It was crazy spots, lots of fancy gimmicked pyro and guys no selling everything. There were a lot of obvious edits, not that smooth. I know they want an underground feel, but you have to have some smoothness with the editing during matches. The announcers, while excited, come off like Don West on crack. West will seem tame after this I feel. It was a wild 30-minutes, and while it is fun to see a lot of these guys, I am not sure how well it will do. I would guess there is an audience for this thing out there, we’ll have to wait and see. In the end I cannot decide if I love this or hate it.
