Hello everyone. I am the Serious Fan, and I am here to bring a serious outlook to W*I*G. In my first post here, I will be taking a look at the W*I*G roster:
The Men:
Hardcore Hensley--I am not a big fan of hardcore wrestling; I prefer a more mat-based technical style. So, I'm a little apathetic to Hardcore Hensley. Though, he has had some good promos.
The Maxx Awesome--I like him. He harkens back to such great heels like Mr. Perfect and "Mr. Wonderful" Paul Orndorff. I hope he becomes the first W*I*G Champion because he has the look, skills, and charisma to pull off being the first champion.
L. Rey--He is an interesting character. I like how all of his moves are not any type of lifting move. This allows him to have a good match with anyone of any size. I would definitely like to see him wrestler one of W*I*G's big sized wrestlers. I believe that would be an interesting match up.
Jimmy "Magnum" Constance--I am a little torn about Constance. On the one hand, his gimmick is that he is a big Tom Selleck fan and does not leave a lot for the man to work with. However, he is a good wrestler. Plus, he reminds me a lot of Magnum T.A., one of my favorite wrestlers. And, I can see him as W*I*G's first midcard title champion.
Sky Monix--He is not bad, but he could add a some more moves to his moveset. He has a high-flying style that should not be limited to a few moves.
Damien McKnight--Again, I am not a big fan of the brawling, hardcore wrestler. But, Mr. McKnight has good look to him; and his finishing maneuver is amazing.
Vin Beverly--Again, I like the cocky heel. And, Beverly is my cup of tea.
Jason Hereford--I love Hereford when he was a part of TJT. They were one of my favorite tag teams in EWT. So, I am quite interested in seeing how Hereford will transition into a singles wrestler.
Coltrane--I am not too familiar with Heroes, and a character based on the show seems a little too gimmicky to me. But, I am a little intriqued by it and look foward to see how it turns out.
Dimitri Konstantinos--Dimitri looks like a good wrestler. I hope he lives up to my expectations.
Charles "Chaz" W. Stone--Chas may be a big man, but he does not look like a hoss to me. I think he will break the stereotype that big men are bad wrestlers that WWE has seemed to given them.
The Women:
Synthy Eris--Synthy was one of my favorite wrestlers in EWT. I really enjoyed her reign as Girls Next Door Champion, and I love her character. She would be a good first W*I*G Women's Champion. I look forward to see what she does in W*I*G.
Chick Aura--At first, I thought of her as nothing more than a Bull Nakano or Awesome Kong ripoff. However, he beating of BR Juri Sadamoto changed that a little; I do not remember Nakano or Kong being that brutal. I look foward to seeing just how brutal she can be.
BR Juri Sadamoto--I was upset to see Juri taken out so early. She is a great wrestler who can work with men just as well as women. I hope she comes back soon; I really enjoy watching her wrestle.
The Teams and Stables:
The Latin Lovers (Guillermo Miramontes & Casimiro Melendez)--this is a very weird team. Guillermo named his moves after albums of Julio Iglesias, and Casimiro named his moves after the books of Gabriel Garcia Marquez. Plus, they have a ladies' men gimmick, which has divided the audience. I am not their biggest fan, but I am interested in seeing just what they do in W*I*G.
Smooth Jazz (Miles Parker & Mister E) and Ryan Bergman--I am not too familiar with these three, but they have a jazz gimmick, which I like because I am tired the incessant use of rock music in W*I*G. It is nice to see a style of music not normally used finally getting used.
The Olympus Siblings (Lexi Dyionysi & Tristan Hades)--I like Lexi. She has a weird that is strangely appealing to me. However, I'm not too big on Tristian. He comes off as a hoss to me.
The Pantheon of The New Revelation (Jonathan Doe & Exner)--I really like this team. I quite enjoyed the Cast Of Heroes stable in EWT and was very disappointed when it ended abruptly. Hopefully, this will be a nice continuation, as Doe is great on the mic. Plus, I really like the name; it is very original.
The While Boys (Jason and Justin White)--I am not a big fan of the Southern/redneck gimmick. However, this is a nice twist on it as The White Boys are proud Sotherns who feel persecuted by the North and upper class. Though I think they could use a better name, this team looks like it will go far in W*I*G, maybe even to the W*I*G Tag Team Champions.
The King's Court (Andy Duke and Alexa King)--I like Duke, but I do not know about this King's Court. I do not we would want another King Booker, if that is the direction W*I*G decides to go with. However, I am sure Duke will do well in W*I*G and get the push he deserved to get in EWT. I also wonder if Alexa will wrestle in W*I*G.
The Innocent (Joshua, Rosie, & Earnest)--This stable seems interesting but only on paper. Joshua has interesting character as a heel who acts like a face. However, he severly limits himself with a moveset of nothing but kicks. All one would have to do to beat him is to take out his legs. Joshua should add some moves that involve the arms if he wants to be a good wrestler. I think Rosie is a little unnecessary what with Chick Aura around. However, I am interested in seeing what she does in W*I*G, and I like that the woman of the group is the most violent. As for Earnest, he comes off as a hoss to me. Plus, the name reminds me of those stupid Earnest movies starring Jim Varney. I would like to see him get another name if possible.
And, those are my opinions on the W*I*G. If you have any opinions on my opinions, then please feel free to share.

I really like what you did here. Sorry about not responding sooner!
You should give your opinions on some of the feuds or newer stars that strike your fancy, as I think that would be interesting as well.

Interesting thread. I'd like to do my own take on it, if you don't mind, though maybe not as detailed: The Men: Hardcore Hensley: Good promo work (though hijacking Bill Goldberg's old catchphrase shows a lack of creativity). He is a good wrestler, but for a man who prides himself on being "hardcore", well, he doesn't actually seem to really flourish in that environment.
THE MAXX AWESOME: The man has charisma to burn & an impressive ring-style. But he may never be able to shake off the label of a Tag-Team wrestler. Hopefully, W*I*G will give him the chance to broaden his horizons.
L. Rey: Definitely a man to watch. He hasn't shown much so far outside of his feud with The White Boys, but I expect once W*I*G gets it's titles established L. Rey is a lock to be in contention.
Jimmy "Magnum" Constance: The Tom Selleck gimmick is a little cheesy, but the man can wrestle. Hopefully he isn't hindered by the gimmick & he manages to evolve. His current Tag-Team with L. Rey provides an interesting dynamic & I hope the pair remain allies, if not partners.
Damien McKnight: After his recent "brainwashing" by Jonathan Doe, maybe McKnight can show a bit of depth. I just hope this doesn't turn into another Abyss-style turn where he attacks those who "helped" him. His wrestling style is pretty good, I'll give him that. But character is important too.
Vin Beverly: Needs to show me something... ANYTHING to make me care. All I know is he's cocky, but not on THE MAXX AWESOME levels. Perhaps MAXX could form a devious team with Beverly in a mentor/student way? His ring-style seems limited, but that's not to say he won't improve.
Jason Hereford: Hopefully, like THE MAXX AWESOME, Hereford can also manage to shake off the tag (no pun intended) of being a Tag-Team specialist. As part of TJT he was great & he looks to be set for big things in W*I*G too.
Coltrane: Another character based on a TV show... Really? That said, he seems to be pretty solid in the ring & his promos are improving. It's certainly not something I've seen in wrestling before (discounting Jimmy Rave/AJ Styles). If he continues to improve he could be headed for W*I*G gold.
Dimitri Konstantinos: Who? This man made one appearance on Vindication nearly a month ago & has since vanished. Is he even coming to W*I*G at all or have they abandoned the character?
Charles "Chaz" W. Stone: Chaz is an intriguing character who I hope to see more of. He's certainly proven to have the promo & wrestling abilities to succeed. I think he needs one big feud to get him to the top.
James Bon Jovi: The rockstar inspired character seems a little wacky. But I'm not about to dismiss him out of hand yet. He intrigues me.
The Women:
Synthy Eris: There aren't enough words for me to express how fantastic this woman is. In terms of female wrestling she's pretty much the total package (though better than Lex Luger).
Chick Aura: As with W*I*G's other female competitors, Chick Aura is a breath of fresh air in terms of female wrestling. However, it's clear that she even stands out amongst the talented women here. Could a few matches with male competitors be in her future? I want to see what havoc she can wreak among the women first.
BR Juri Sadamoto: Again, a superb competitor. Capable of having a good match with virtually anyone. Let's hope she returns soon & shows us all why she was EWT OX Division Champion.
Danny Taylor: Another character that has my interest. I hope she can prove to be more than just "another bland babyface".
The Teams and Stables:
The Latin Lovers (Guillermo Miramontes & Casimiro Melendez): Bit of a re-tread gimmick wise. Doesn't W*I*G have ties to WHOA? Couldn't they have just called up the Sexy Brothers? Despite this, the team definitley have talent. Tired gimmick or nay, I expect them to do well in W*I*G.
The Olympus Siblings (Lexi Dyionysi & Tristan Hades): Having seen these two in WHOA, I know that they can be an entertaining duo. Let's hope that they can keep their great performances coming.
The Pantheon of The New Revelation (Jonathan Doe, Exner, Cheyenne & Damien McKnight): The addition of Damien McKnight to their "cause" may be the Pantheon's biggest asset or their biggest detriment. I hope it's the former. Doe & Exner were very good in EWT as the short-lived Cast of Heroes. I hope to see more of them in W*I*G, maybe adding a few more new disciples along the way. Cheyenne has yet to show me anything, but I hold out hope she will prove to be good.
The While Boys (Jason and Justin White): I adore this team & their gimmick. I can't think of a duo who would be more deserving to be W*I*G's first Tag-Team Champions.
The King's Court (Andy Duke and Alexa King): Duke as a face will hopefully prove a boon for W*I*G as he hasn't parlayed a face run into success elsewhere. With Alexa around (& maybe a few new recruits), The King's Court might prove to be a bit of a "sleeper hit" in W*I*G.
The Innocent (Joshua, Rosie, & Earnest): Their promos have me intrigued, but that's about it. I'm not really blown away by what they bring in the ring, but they are still relatively new so there's still room for improvement.
Him & Her: They're, ummm, weird. I still look forward to what they can do, though as they seem interesting.

I see that we have some new talent. So here are my opinions on them:
Danny Taylor--Her first promo did not really impress me. However, I have heard good things about her, so I will reserve some judgment until she fully comes into W*I*G.
James Bon Jovi--I do not really like this guy. I do not know why; I guess it maybe because I am not a big fan of the band Bon Jovi.
Him And Her--I do not know a lot about this, and that is the way I like it. They are so mysterious and intriguing that I cannot wait to see what they do in W*I*G.

I see that a new team has shown up in W*I*G. So, here is my opinion on them:
Shuga.//.\\.//.\\ Koshinryo: I am quite intrested in seeing this team, especially considering that they are both female. I wonder how well they will do in W*I*G.

I also look forward to seeing Koshinryo & Shuga in action. Their oddball promos seem a little bit similar to Him & Her, though.

I see we have some new talent in W*I*G. So, without further adieu:
Aqil Ghassan: Throughout the years, Arabic wrestlers usually had the same gimmick: Arab man who does not like America. However, we now have something new: an Arab man who loves America. This should be quite interesting to see. Already, Ghassan is a breath of fresh air. That's not to take away from The Iron Sheik, Muhammad Hassan, and others; but it is very nice to see a promotion not go with the typical Arab stereotype.
TNT: This is a very unique stable: one man and three girls. I have heard a lot of good things about TNT during their stints in the American Southwest. Toby Nicholas Tucker is a very good wrestler, who mixes power and technical moves well. As for the ladies, I heard good things about Tracy Jones and Talia Bell. They are both tough no-nonsense women who can work well. I hear they are about as strong as many male wrestlers. Though, Nicole Michaels really stands out of the other girls. She has a gimmick similar to Trish Stratus when she was a heel, but she is stronger that Trish. And, they are all very charismatic, with Toby and Nicole being more overt in their charisma and Tracy and Talia being more subdued. It should fun seeing what they do in W*I*G.

Some more people have joined W*I*G, so here are my opinions on them:
Elixir Estamos, Jr.: It is nice to see a luchador in W*I*G. He can add some lucha libre flavor to the company's style. I would love to see a match between him and L. Rey.
Fannie Package: I like to see a woman who does not fall into the stereotypical Diva type, but Fannie just screams hoss to me. For that, I just cannot get into her.
Team Ireland: I am so excited to see Team Ireland in W*I*G. Coach O'Hare is a fantasic manager. Aidan and Sean make a good team and can work in singles competition. Shane Malone is a hoss, but he is a very talented one. As for Maeve, I am a little concerned with her. With Chick Aura, Rosie, and Fannie Package running around, she could get lost in the shuffle. Hopefully, she will have something to do as she was booked very well in EWT even though she was there for a short time. I hope Liam shows up either as a part of the group or feuds with them.

As for Maeve, I am a little concerned with her. With Chick Aura, Rosie, and Fannie Package running around, she could get lost in the shuffle. Hopefully, she will have something to do as she was booked very well in EWT even though she was there for a short time. This was my concern too. I was thinking that if Team Ireland ever showed up, there are already a few women in W*I*G that are similar to Maeve. However, now I think it could be a plus. In most North American companies women like Rosie, Maeve, Fannie or Chick are a rarity. I can think of only Awesome Kong & Chyna (& to a lesser degree, Beth Phoenix) off the top of my head as the only ones who even compare in the North American market in the last 10 years. But if you look at companies such as All Japan Women or GAEA, there were many women like them that succeeded while working as contemporaries (Amazing Kong, Aja Kong, Dynamite Kansai, Devil Masami). Add to that the "smaller" but talented women of W*I*G such as Danny Taylor, Juri, Synthy, Lexi, the members of TNT & even Alexa & Cheyenne. There's alot of diversity there, even among the four "big women". They're all presented differently. Personally, i think a match pitting Maeve vs. Chick vs. Fannie vs. Rosie would be an extraordinary sight. Certianly different from what TNA, WWE or even SHIMMER would produce.

I'm going to gove some mre developed opinions on a few of the ones I didn't cover before. Aqil Ghassan: If he hadn't vanished after his debut, I might like him more. He's got a more refreshing take on the "Arab gimmick" than Sheik Abdul Bashir at least & he seems pretty good in the ring. Hopefully he's back doing more soon. TNT: Toby Nicholas Tucker is an extraordinary gentleman. He has cracking promos & the fact that he's always surrounded by his girls is kind of different for a stable. I hope Constance doesn't take away any of TNT's chicks. I really like this group. Elixir Estamos Jr.: He was so good & his promos were very... unique He seems quiet for the moment, though. Fannie Package: Even though W*I*G has a number of "big women" in it, Fannie still stands out. If her match against Rosie at Halloween Hell was any indicator, Fannie can be very big in W*I*G (no pun intended). Team Ireland: I'm really interested in the fact that they seem to be making them into faces here in W*I*G. That's certainly something new for Team Ireland, though it makes Coach O'Hare essentially useless at the moment. Shane Malone had a great go in the Monster's Ball & Maeve's match with Danny was superb (even if she lost). I hope to see more of Aidan & Sean in action soon. The Maxx: I know it's just Maxx Awesome with a new name, but... I like this guy. I'm disappointed that he was put back into the Tag-Team ranks, but with this new gimmick & his unlikely team with the former Jimmy Thunder... talk about a dream-team. Maybe someone will manage to knock The Maxx back to intelligent again, but for the moment, I want to see what Bon Jovi & The Maxx can do as a team. Vile: She sucks. W*I*G does not need EWT cast-offs, especially crappy ones. I hope she's gone as soon as possible & I REALLY hope this doesn't lead to Sigma coming with her...UGH!

Here we are more than half-way through W*I*G's first year so I decided to present my revised opinion on the W*I*G roster. The MenAqil Ghassan: Still like him. He needs to do more, though. His Colvin Cup team with Lily-Rose was intriguing, but it doesn't look like they want to go that way. A potential feud with The Innocent could be the kick-start he needs. Archibald Barnes: The legendary Archibald Barnes needs to retire before he breaks a hip. It's like, "What if Ric Flair were even worse?" Chaz Stone: Definitely the premier male face in W*I*G at the moment. His team with the equally huge Fannie Package has made for some great moments. I just hope that Chaz can manage to muscle his way back into the title picture. Coltrane: He came into W*I*G unproven & I wasn't sure about him winning the title, but Coltrane has been one of the best things to come along in years. In only a few months he has established himself as The Man in W*I*G. Delightfully devious & calculating, Coltrane may be one of the best heels I've ever seen. Damien Blood: Has potential to usurp Coltrane as W*I*G's most vicious heel. He's still got a long way to go in W*I*G & he needs to disassociate himself from the sometimes comical TNT if he wants to make it to the top. Exner: Finally seems to be on his way back to exact vengeance on Jonathan Doe. I look forward to what is sure to be very bloody retribution. Gigantor Maximus: Hilariously awful. I'm glad that he showed up in W*I*G actually as he provides some much needed comic relief. Hardcore Hensley: Glad to see this man back as well. After he took a brief hiatus last year I was concerned he might be through with W*I*G. I can see him matching up well with any number of guys on the roster, though. Maybe he can work his way up to contention here as well as in EWT. Jack Jupiter: Well... He's there. Along with his scary bodyguard. I'm warming to this version of Jack Jupiter. Now that he's no longer associated with a group of others he can really manage to shine as the overbearing prick that he is. I just want him to get involved in a feud. James “Magnum” Constance: Once had great solo potential but seems to have stalled lately. Needs to keep his alliance with L. Rey informal if he wants to make it into title contention. Jason Hereford: Has been quiet lately, but that probably means he's just plotting something. He's always a threat to the title. I hope he resists the temptation to go back to being a Tag-Team wrestler, something his past partner has been unable to avoid. Jonathan Doe: At last, we finally see the nasty, vicious side of Doe. I hope his streak of brutality continues & we see him tear a path through W*I*G to get back to the top of the ladder. This man has World Champion potential. A feud with Exner will either make him or break him. L. Rey: As with his pal "Magnum", L. Rey needs to think about long-term prospects. I'm not so sure that he can survive as well outside the team as "Magnum" can, though. I hope I'm wrong. Sky Monix: Can't wait to see a new heel-ish Sky Monix get stuck back into the competition. He failed to set the world on fire last year, maybe 2009 will be the year to do it. The WomenBR Juri Sadamoto: Perhaps the best female talent in the world right now. Juri can do just about anything, serious straight wrestling, brutal hardcore brawls & even comedy. She needs to start focussing on the Women's Title once she'd disposed of Chick Aura. Chick Aura: Not Chick will take it easy on Juri. Chick is perhaps even more brutal than any woman I've ever seen. I hope that violence can blaze her a path to the title. Danny Taylor: This girl seems to have dropped off a bit. I loved her feud with Maeve, but she needs to get back in the game. Great wrestler, great promos... but hurry up & do something. Fannie Package: Not often that we see a "woman" like Fannie being presented as a face. Her team with Chaz Stone is a riot. I just hope that they can embark on singles careers too. Fannie has been a revelation in W*I*G. She deserves to see her efforts rewarded with a title reign. Lana de la Croix: I like her character very much. Her interactions with Chaz & Fannie are cute & amusing in equal measures. Yet to really see her in the ring, but I hope that her abilities ther are at least equal to her abilities on the mic. Lily-Rose: Seemed to be headed for a feud with Vile. Has that been quietly quashed? I do like Lily-Rose alot, but she needs to get moving agin or she'll be forgotten about. Molly Ringworm: Crazy, but loveable. Molly is a great character & her in-ring skills are not to be sniffed at. Her upcoming battle(s) with Maeve will be her proving ground. Synthy Eris: Has really shone as a challenger for the misogynistic, sadistic, Coltrane. Could it be that she will be W*I*G's first ever female World Heavyweight Champion? I think Synthy has really found her calling taking on the guys. Vile: Never cared for her much... still don't. Pulling a Flair like stunt didn't impress me either. Ykaterina Milosanova: The enigmatic Ykaterina is very interesting. Her promos are crisp & polished, as is her ring-performance. The mask is a bit creepy, though. The Teams & StablesJames Bon Jovi & The Maxx: Don't just talk, guys! This team have the biggest mouths of anyone I've ever seen. They need to do more in the ring to back it up. Their segments are amusing, but I want to see them actually wrestle the people they make fun of. I was a bit annoyed that The Maxx took a backwards step of going back to the Tag-ranks, but these two could be the best team in W*I*G if they, y'know, do something. Shuga & Koshinryo: Disappeared for... ages & re-emerged in Japan only to, uh, disappear again? Weird, creepy & absent isn't a great combination. I like them but... Team Ireland: Again... DO SOMETHING! They arrived in W*I*G full of steam, but maybe they were just blowing smoke. I hope that they take Donnelly's pep talk to heart & make their way to the top of W*I*G too. Team Raft Shack: Come one guys. Where are you at? A great debut & I LOVE the team but they've vanished too. What gives? The Innocent: The onyl stable that seems to stick around. Rosie really seems to be the corner-stone of the group. I hope to see them gain more ground (& gold), but at the moment only Rosie seems to be doing much for them. The Latin Lovers: Show up for your matches. Great feud potential with alot of teams, but they seem to be missing a step. What is it with all these W*I*G teams not doing anything? The King's Court: Seem to be operating as two distinct units in the Colvin Cup. The Andy Duke/Vin Beverly reluctant partnership was great, but they seem to have let that fall by the wayside. TNT: The only active stable in W*I*G that operates as a unit . TNT himself is a blast & the girls are really great. There's definitely W*I*G gold in the future for all four of them. The Olympus Siblings: Hey, Tristan... wake up. Hopefully they stick around this time. I love the pairing of Tristan & Lexi, but the seem to be operating more independently this time around. The White Boys: Go away & don't come back. Five months without a defense is too long. I'm aware of the irony of me saying this compared to my earlier statements on the White Boys. They have cheapened the W*I*G Tag-Team Titles, belts they obviously don't give a crap about, so why should we? Fire them & give the belts to someone else... ANYONE else!

Told you I'd do one of these one day!
The Men Aqil Ghassan: He's interesting in the way he's not a heel, and I'm all for breaking the stereotypes. But I'm not sure if he has staying power at this point. He didn't last long in the Colvin Cup match and has been beaten down by the Innocent. If this goes somewhere, he just may capture my attention.
Archibald Barnes: You know those "Old Yeller" comments dished at Ric Flair? Imagine if Old Yeller had rabies, no teeth, and no bladder control. This is Archibald.
Chaz Stone: This guy has the potential to be huge, not that he isn't already. W*I*G doesn't really have many strong faces, so he's sorta the big guy by default. Can be alot of pressure but I think this hulk has it.
Coltrane: Despite him bashing Synthy at every turn, even I can't deny his talents. So I'll leave it at this: there's a reason he's still champ.... So far.
Damien Blood: Blah blah blah... Scary guy... Blah blah blah.... Rips off Ricky Steamboat's real name.... Whatever.
Exner: Seems to have dropped off in recent weeks. A shame.
Gigantor Maximus: Freaking awesome. That is all.
Hardcore Hensley: I have no idea what that over the top "good bye" for a few weeks was about, but hey he's back and better than ever after beating Shane Malone... Which not many have done. Kudos.
Jack Jupiter: I'm not sure how to feel about this guy. I was iffy on him in EWT and now... Well at least his routine is different with the manager and all, but we'll see.
James “Magnum” Constance: Really not sure where all the momentum went with this guy. Actually I do, it's the black hole known as the on going, ever lagging feud with TNT.
Jason Hereford: Now some may think that I would hate Jason Hereford for what he's saying about Synthy. And I do. But still, I like how he's become this figure that gets people angry without even having to appear in the ring. I'm only sorta surprised he doesn't bring up his partner more. I mean, even though she is one of the WORST girls W*I*G has... She's still helping him. Also, maybe he should think about keeping his main event spot. I think it's fading away.
Jonathan Doe: I really have nothing for Doe right now. I've missed the few appearances he's had and unfortunately haven't gone back to check them. Have heard good things though.
L. Rey: You know, I just don't know what to say. So promising but it seems you combine all the talents of the people, throw in some really crazy long matches, and you get a charisma black hole with no end in sight.
Sky Monix: I like this guy. He has Monix. He has potential to go to the Sky. Horrible puns aside, I think this guy has a chance to go really high if his manager can really back up his currently low mic skills.
The Women BR Juri Sadamoto: She's Synthy's legit best friend and goes out of her way to put people over when she could be burying them. She's really not my bag but hey, Synthy likes her so she has to be good.
Chick Aura: Chick Aura is a monster. And not some wimpy one like Snitsky or a "monstrous" Mike Knox. No. A legit monster. I wonder, though, where she will go from here after having been defeated by Juri twice.
Danny Taylor: If I had the ability to fire one person in W*I*G, Miss Taylor would be gone. BORING promos, crappy brawling matches, and she gets wins over much more talented people. Annoying.
Fannie Package: It's shocking that people have accepted Fannie despite her obvious short comings as a face. But I think that's a testament to her ability to draw a favorable reaction from the crowd. Even if she gives me huge nightmares.
Lana de la Croix: She's new, but from what I've seen... Well I like her. Can't wait to see where she goes.
Lily-Rose: Well, I'm not big on celebs wrestling. But Lily seems like the real deal, mostly. Not sure where this feud with Vile is going, but it looks like she's got a new partner.
Molly Ringworm: I love Molly. She's so goofy and out there, nobody and I mean nobody can come even close. Well, never mind... Forgot about Raft-Shack. Anyways, I love Molly and can't wait to see what comes next from her.
Synthy Eris: Goddess incarnate. That's all.
Vile: I can't remember the last time I saw such a quick fall from grace. She comes in with a title, loses it in her second big match... Then loses to Lily, who hasn't been hot lately either come to think of it, only to have her ambush on Lily fail. Someone get Vile an agent or fire her current one, she's getting screwed.
Ykaterina Milosanova: The head tilting and mask are bizarre. Not sure what she is going for but at least her matches and promos are some of the best among the women. That's something at least.
The Teams & Stables James Bon Jovi & The Maxx: I'd like these guys... If they ever decide to jump out of the enter-web and decide to do something other than hope to coast on royalties of theoretical dollars. AKA, do some ring stuff... Soon?
Shuga & Koshinryo: Tough girls, but their constant disappearing acts are getting as bad as Undertaker's back in 07. So... are they gone or what?
Team Ireland: I think they are in a slump because that's what their current storyline is. Like MVP. Though I don't know if a whole stable can come back from a "loser" gimmick.
Team Raft Shack: I swear these guys speak a foreign language. I can't understand them at all. But regardless, I think they are quite entertaining. I hope to see them more, other than in surprise PPV matches.
The Innocent: This is one wicked stable. And I mean in a good way, if that makes sense. Cults scare the fuck out of me. I only hope the Keeper isn't like Joe One's pool boy or sometime crappy like that.
The Latin Lovers: Hate. Hate. Hate. Synthy should be kicking ass and drinking Pepsi, and sometimes not in that exact order. And sometimes at the same time! Not going on dates. Go back to the lame Telemundo soap you came from.
The King's Court: Really can't say much about the King's Court, other than I wish Andy would just drop Alexia for good and just go out on his own without lackeys or anything. Come on, Andy, you're a main eventer. Don't Edge your career.
TNT: I really like Tobias. And Talia. Then there's Nicole and that other girl, who's never done anything. If it wasn't for this endless feud that's just spinning it's tires in the mud, I'd say I'm happy to see TNT and Talia. But I'm not. I hope they move on soon.
The Olympus Siblings: Sucks to hear that Tristan's down for awhile, but if anything it's a go-ahead for Lexi to continue on without him for awhile. I really like Lexi, and not because of who she's related to. REALLY hope she's not going to feud with that Danny though, seems like a major step down for her in that case.
The White Boys: While they have been the weakest champions of W*I*G so far, I think they have the chance to prove people wrong. But only one. And to be honest, painfully long addresses only work when the people are engaging... Like EWT's Cassinova (god where is he at?!) Anyways, here's hoping the White Boys can come back from this X-Pac heat they're getting from here.

Here are my opinions of the W*I*G Roster:
The Men Aqil Ghassan: I like a foreign wrestler who isn't a stereotype or a heel. Plus, I'm interested in seing how this feud between him and the Innocent goes.
Archibald Barnes: I don't know which graveyard they found this geezer, but they should put him back into the ground.
Chaz Stone: This guy could be W*I*G big face. They just need to book him properly. And, by that, I mean, keep him as a singles wrestler and not teaming with Fannie Package.
Coltrane: This guy is good. And, I like his gimmick: stealing other wrestlers moves. I was suprised that he became W*I*G's first main champion, but he has shown that he deserves that title.
Damien Blood: I haven't been impressed so far. I mean, isn't he suppose to be scary? But, he does have potential.
Exner: He's good, when he's around. Maybe we should send Rorschach to find Exner.
Gigantor Maximus: He is a great comedy jobber. Hope to see more of him.
Hardcore Hensley: I'm indifferent to Hensley. He's not my favorite wrestler in the world, but I don't hate him. To me, he's just there.
Jack Jupiter: I love this guy. I just wish we could see more of him.
James “Magnum” Constance: What happened!? This guy had a lot of momentum, but now it's gone. Hopefully, he'll be able to regain it after his feud with TNT and Damien is done. He could be the number 2 face in W*I*G. Hell, maybe even the number 1.
Jason Hereford: I like him, but I wish he would do more than just insult Synthy. Like wrestle. Hell, maybe they could squeeze him into the Synthy/Coltrane feud.
Jonathan Doe: Again, we have another great character who needs to appear on the show more. What gives?
L. Rey: He is my favorite singles wrestler. He's pretty much the only reason I can stand the feud with him, Magnum, TNT, and Damien. I hope he moves on to bigger and better things when it's done.
Sky Monix: Great wrestler with a good manager. Now that's a good combination.
The Women BR Juri Sadamoto: This is one girl I wouldn't want to get into a fight with. Juri always impresses me with her toughness.
Chick Aura: This woman is the scariest wrestler in W*I*G today. Maybe Damien should hang around with her. He could learn a thing or two.
Danny Taylor: I don't know why W*I*G hired this girl.
Fannie Package: There are two things I wonder about Fannie: why do the fans like her so much? And, is she really a woman?
Lana de la Croix: She's new, and I haven't seen a lot from her. However, she can handle Sky Monix pretty well. So, she's got potential.
Lily-Rose: They say she's some kind of celebrity, but I've never heard of her.
Molly Ringworm: Not only is she funny, but she's also great in the ring. Now that's a great combination.
Synthy Eris: This woman has really impressed me. Hell, I wouldn't mind if she was to become the W*I*G World Heavyweight Champion.
Vile: This girl should never had left EWT.
Ykaterina Milosanova: I love seeing a masked female wrestler. Plus, she's good in the ring and on the mic. So, the mask isn't her only appeal. She's a great, well rounded wrestler.
The Teams & Stables James Bon Jovi & The Maxx: These guys are great, but they need to do more wrestling. Especially against the Latin Lovers.
Shuga & Koshinryo: These are very tough women. I just wish they would show up more.
Team Ireland: I'm gonna be honest: I'm not a big fan of Team Ireland. But, they do fill out the tag team roster.
Team Raft Shack: These guys confuse me, but they are entertaining.
The Innocent: I like the idea of a cult-like stable. However, I don't like the front guy, Joshua. All he does is kicks. I mean, c'mon. Fill out your move set! A suplex wouldn't kill you!
The Latin Lovers: I LOVE THESE GUYS!!!! They're good in the ring! They're good on the mic! They have the best web show on W*I*G.com! They are just great! W*I*G needs to give them the W*I*G World Tag Team Titles!
The King's Court: I wasn't really impressed with this stable until Vin Beverly joined it after feuding with Andy Duke. I like the idea of having two guys who don't get a long teaming up with each other. If only they would show up, I could really enjoy them.
TNT: This is the most interesting stable in W*I*G. You have one guy surrounded by three girls who protect him. It makes Toby look like more of a heel. Though, his charisma and skills in the ring could do the job just as well. And, the girls have impressed me. However, they've gotten bogged down by this feud with Magnum. Though, I do like the dynamic between Magnum and Nicole. However, it needs to end soon.
The Olympus Siblings: I like Synthy's sister Lexi. But, I can't stand Tristan. I don't know why. Probably has a lot to do with him going after the Latin Lovers.
The White Boys: Again, we have another team that is hardly around. But, these guys are the worse because they're the W*I*G World Tag Team Champions!!!! They really should have been stripped of their titles. Though, they were impressive when they first came to W*I*G, and now they have a chance to show why they deserved those belts in the first place.
Paul's Boutique: I don't know who came up with the idea to create a gimmick based on the Beasties Boys, but he or she deserves a medal for creativity. I was impressed by their outing at March 29th. However, they need to do more before I can get good feel who how they'll do in W*I*G.
The World: A stable jobbers. This is not going to go well for them. At least, the W*I*G roster has a bunch of people to make them look good.
