WXO | Wrestling With Wregret 

“Family Friendly Entertainment” *Hires John Zandig*

Of course the wXO failed they didnt had a round system nor Tito Santana as world champion

They had John Zandig because Ted DiBiase had found JEEEEEEEZZZZUSSS!

Scott Nash is the most Indy thing I’ve ever seen.

“If you’re some karate” That’s it. That’s the comment.

"What you're guaranteed, is the opportunity to make money! " - Gabe Sapolsky... I mean, Ted DiBiase...

Oh come on Brian, you know what WXO stands for. "We're Xtremely Ordinary"

Brian Zane: Adam Blampied WhatCulture: I’ve never met this man in my life.

i remember watching all three episodes when they first aired in 2000. A decade later I could find no evidence this promotion ever existed online and was under the impression I had imagined the whole thing.

These promotion history vids are why I started following this channel in the first place. I love them.

“ everyone needs to drive a vehicle. Even the very FAT”😂😂😂😂

Al Green: "...if you're some karate!" Question Mark: "Kah-rah-teehhh!"

Once you've chosen Al Green as your gimmick, its important that the gimmick Stay Together.

WXO is kinda like the wrestling show that you came across when you surf the tv channels after the commercial break, you watch it for 5 minutes and then go back to watch some game show. Weird but okay to watch.

Gotta love learning about wrestling companies i have never even heard of.

Dan Severn was great... but man he had absolutely no charisma. He needed his own Paul Heyman.

"Cruise spends a lot of time agreeing to what Stan Lane says" That's Schiavone's gimmick in 2020 : "Well said JR" "That's right Excalibur" 😂😂😂

13:30 "Everyone needa to drive a vehicle, even the very FAT! This is the largest vehicle I can afford."

"The 1989 Denver broncos" Love it! And if you don't get that reference.......................................... Figure it out.

11:25 the way he says "karate" sounds like he is being dubbed by Matt stone or Trey Parker from South Park.

Scott Nash is a hilariously bad “insider” pun, it needs to be brought back he should be facing Rowan next week on Raw

Thats what Severn sounds like? I imagined his voice much more grizzled

WXO sounds like some weird crossover between wrestling and tic-tac-toe.

"If you're karate"😂😂

Why does every failed indie promotion have an "X" in it?

After WXO folded, Al Green returned to WCW as "The Dog". He was in a group with Fit Finlay and Brian Knobs. He was a last minute replacement for Sabu, who couldn't return to WCW due to contract issues.

Wrestling fans: "What do you think satisfies us and makes us watch wrestling?" John Laurinaitis: 2:45

"adam blampied and i" what culture : who?

Just a thought, I wouldn’t mind seeing a retrospective on Barry Darsow one day. The man has been around for years, and still to this day wrestles every now and then. He has memorable gimmicks for days (for better or worse). Demolition Smash, Repo Man, Stuart Payne, Big Black Bully Cock, etc... I just think it would make for an interesting video.

“These two guys” 🤣 that editing was Lana promo levels of horrific

A promotion with Ted DiBiase and no Virgil in sight?

I hear MICHAEL BARTON has a great THE LAST RIDE

So that's where "if you're some karate" came from

HOLY SHIT! It's the Big Dog himself, Ace Steele! might be nearly 22 years too late, but at least we finally know the name of one half of the Bodies

I genuinely thought the "THESE TWO GUYS" Edit was you making a joke!! My god hahahahah

“Crowd sweetening gives your organization Diabeetus and that can’t air...”

How....have I never, ever...heard about this until now? You have failed me for the last time internet.

Your 'dead promotions' videos are always my favorite and this was no exception. Looking forward to the day you cover the UWA (Urban Wrestling Alliance) from this same time period.

17:54 yeah because we definitely needed another wrestling game with that War Zone engine

I vaguely remember this promotion! They aired like one episode that I remember and somehow a fake Kevin Nash was there lol

I’m going with the 1989 broncos lol

Thank you so much for doing this episode Brian. I loved this show so much when I watched it back in the day.

I have legitimately never heard of WXO and that’s impressive

Yeah September 2022 here….you’re gonna know all about Ace Steele.

"The Eggdome Japan" not only Akiyama and Kobashi had to use a pseudonym

Them dubbing over Bart Gunn’s name is the funniest thing I’ve seen in awhile

That Johnny Ace promo was hands down one of the greatest promo ive ever seen

you should do an episode on XPW lol

That abberivation sounds like it came out of an Japanese wrestling game with no promotion license. Talking of which, Riki Choshu's Fighting of World Japan Pro Wrestling could be a good Promotion Graveyard content.

God I live in Lakeland and remember going to this with my dad they advertised at many churches around the county area.

"...these two guys..." I'm dead 🤣😂🤣😂

"DOT COM - ON THE INTERNET!!!"

Adam Blampied is basically Whatculture's Chris Benoit.

I wish you would do this series more often, it's one of my favorites.

Ah, back when ace steel was known for training punk and not biting kenny omega lmal

"If you're some karate!" What about "If you're some shaolin" or "If you're some taekwondo"...

4:16 now I miss adam blampied again. Hope he's doing ok

In Tokyo...MICHEAL BARTON...and Johnny Ace! Sounds like an answering machine.

Darsow during that Priceline commercial reminded me of when the TV from the Brave Little Toaster was being over the top trying to get Master's attention about going to Ernie's Disposal.

" These two guys" lmao I can't stop rewinding

Imagine if the limo blew up and all that was left was Dan's sweaty grey tee

"If your some Karate"

After heroes of wrestling, I will never look at Stan Lane the same ever again 😂

The half of the Bodies that trained CM Punk is Ace Steel

RIP Rocky Johnson

WXO well of course it stands for Wrestling kisses and hugs

A Wrestling with wregret review please of: LOD 2000 the Monday Night Wars in 2010 Rise and Fall of Rusev

IWC: *wE LoVE Te ATtiTUde eRa* Me: 2:46

Nearly twenty years on and TNA/Impact is still alive. I never would have guessed it.

The best part of this company is the "if you're some karate" quote

Adam Blampied return confirmed Can’t Wait till he Debuts on WWW, rising from the ashes like a Phoenix.

Great South Park reference. God bless you, Brian.

Thank you for doing this video. I honestly thought I had imagined watching an episode of WXO many years ago. Thanks for the evidence that I didn't somehow make this promotion up in a fever dream or something.

"These two guys!" OMG

Never mind seeing The Beast and his mustache

Johnny Ace with the iconic point offscreen then to the screen while telling people to "figure it out" Figure what out johnny!!

And Deadlock done a podcast and it was bloody funny on the limo part

With a name like WXO I would've figured they were some wannabe ECW.

Brian Zane: Adam Blampied Whatculture: Name Retracted

Awesome seeing you make another forgotten promotion video, love those videos! =D Hope you make more of them =)

12:20 "Mr. Black"

Whoa, Whoa Whoa, DO NOT bring the 1989 Denver Broncos into this!

"The 1989 Denver Broncos?"....yet another bravo for you sir.

Stan Lane sporting the Harvey Shiller haircut. (Thumbs up if you remember Shiller!)

That Dan Severn theme reference. 😆

Question Mark: "KARATE"

13:30 Damn it, Zane. I burst out laughing at work.

I was at the taping that had the Nash wannabe my Dad got free tickets.

Nothing like the best intro on RU-vid to get me hyped

Great vid, I miss the promotion graveyard series. I hope Brian brings it back more often.

I tape traded for WXO episodes in the early 2000s, my friend and I were looking for footage of WCW Saturday Night jobbers and man, we got it. First thing we heard was "Barry Darsow just pushed Mike Enos into Barry Horowitz!" I can't remember if you mentioned it but the best part was Al Green is in the bathroom taking a shit, Darsow is pounding on the door yelling THEY'RE IN THE RING RIGHT NOW YOU GOTTA HURRY UP AND GET THEM about some guys they were planning to jump. That Steiner "FAT!" cut... hilarious. I rarely crack up at stuff when I'm watching it alone but you did it. Good work.

Haha! I remember this and still have the theme song stuck in my head. I’m surprised you didn’t show it. I was waiting for it.

Great video Brian, can't believe I'd never even heard of them. Surely it must finally be time for a retrospective on XPW! Between New Jack trying to kill Vic Grimes; The ECW Heatwave invasion and Rob Black "allegedly" paying people to cut off Messiah's thumb, you wouldn't be short of talking points!

“It doesn’t matter to me if you’re some shoot fighter...if you’re some karate...” Put it on a t shirt

The Skee E Woah of Deadlock brought me here. I'll say one thing, I never saw a wrestling show end with both tag teams beating a fan before.

"My name is Al Green!" "Well, you've gotta be." Very well timed Mr. Zane.

Didn't want to say it but.. _I'm_ some karate

4:00 - I legit spit out my drink laughing

Watching this on my lunch break at work today

5:45 is a great reminder of the challenges of incorporating yourself. You’re stuck wearing a lot of hats. Props to BZ!
