This show looks really cool. It is about 13 people wanting to be pro wrestlers and what they go through to achieve it. The winner at the end gets a contract with the WWF. It premieres tonight at 10PM eastern on MTV. Here is a review of the first episode: http://www.nypost.com/entertainment/062101a.htm

I watched it, as I am an avid WWF fan and would dream about being a wrestler if I wasn't 5' 8" and fat . Instead I must get through college to pursue the ever exciting role of a supply chain manager. yipee. Anyways, I thought the show was pretty good. The "Evil Janitor" cracked me up. I hope he wins. Either him or the scrawny guy or maybe that huge black guy. I swear I could kick that little kid's butt but he seems to have a lot of guts and desire. I can't wait for future shows! Taz is such a jerk that its hillarious. A lot of the wrestlers are bitter at the show so they're gonna make the contestants lives a living hell.

Actually, when I think about it, you're right! That evil janitor probably stunk up the interviews or something. (He had to have at least been called back.) That sucks. He had a great look and good intensity. That skinny little kid is the lovechild of pure backyard garbage wrestling. It'll be interesting to see if he can last without getting killed.

Blaster1, thanks for the reminder about this one. I had forgotten about it until I saw the thread. Of course, the 182937419874 adds during Smackdown would have jogged my memory, but thanks nonetheless

As for the show, I thoroughly enjoyed it. As cute as she was, I was surprised that Tara chick made it to the 25-cut. She was 5-4, had some flab around the waist, and small breasts. Hey, I'd have no problem dating a girl like that, but this is the WWF. If she can't wrestle and isn't psycho-hot, there's not much future.

I will watch every episode unless it get stupid. My only fear is that they try to make it "Reality TV" and get into what the contestants do in the house and crap like that. I'll be watching to see what training and examination these people go through and how it affects them personally. Anything else will make my remote-thumb a little trigger-happy.
