MTV PULLS WRESTLING SOCIEY X FINALE FROM AIR

By Mike Johnson on 2007-03-16 09:10:00

MTV quietly removed next week's scheduled airing of the final Wrestling Society X episode from the 10:30 PM slot, replacing it with an airing of The Real World. When reached this morning, one MTV source claimed that the episode was never officially set to air. It was listed until yesterday with both TV Guide and the MTV website's schedule.

At this point, there's no word if or when the WSX final episode, which was to feature an exploding steel cage match, will air.

Interesting to note that the WSX wrestler contracts are worded to expire 90 days after the initial airing of the Season One series finale. If that episode doesn't air at some point, it will be interesting to see where that leaves the performers' options legally to sign elsewhere should they get offers from TNA or WWE.

I've also heard there's talk of rerunning the WSX episodes on MTV2 in the near future, but nothing concrete.
