WMAC Masters

This television series was good. It featured real martial artists competing against each other for the dragon star, the award given to the greatest martial artist. There also is stunts the superstars perform that you have to see to believe. They also tell you about achieving your goals in life in order to be successful. All in all, this show is good but not great.

I don't care what anyone else says. This show was so bad ass. Granted, it was a martial arts knock off of the WWF, it was so cool. The fights, the plots, and most important, Shannon Lee (Bruce's daughter) is hot!!!!! I wish I knew what ever happened to this show cause I would so watch it again if it was still on television.

The WMAC took the best of the best from the world of Hollywood stuntmen, and put them together to do for Martial Arts what the WWF did for wrestling. Each actor used their real name on the show, but also had a ring name (or Key symbol) that created a character. My Favorites were the strong yet cute BabyDoll (played by Bridgette Rylie who now competes as a boxer using the same nickname),Turbo (plyed by Michael Bernardo, who is now retired from the film world, and runs a martial arts school in Canada) , and Tracer/ Tracy Swedom the villain of season 2 (played by Michael Foley, a former Navy Seal who went on to star in Race for the Poles). Tracy Swedom was the only character to not use his real name, because the words Tracy Swedom, when mixed up , spell 'Destroy WMAC', making his the ultimate villain.

I can see why people would not be intrested, because the show primarily aimed to teach good morals and values, and when that diden't work they made it a pure battle of good versus evil (like so many typical martial arts movies,) with the villain speaking poetic lines that fall out of context in a kids show.

It was a great show, and I encourage everyone to check it out on video, or at least look for the films that the cast has made since then.

I first watched this show by accident, channel surfing one day, and, from that point on, I was hooked. It had the fighting element- something I really enjoyed, being the Mortal Kombat fanatic that I am. On that note, it also had people with ties to Mortal Kombat, (movie and games) making me *that* much happier. It was good, clean fun, with a cast that was pretty easy on the eyes. You hear that, ladies? HOT GUYS. WITH NICE BODIES. It went far beyond the little hearts floating above my head, though, I assure you. Speaking of ladies- the women on this show were (and I imagine still are) AMAZING. Seeing Lady Lightning in action always made me happy. A great athlete and someone I have a lot of respect for. Her with the steel whips- how cool was that?! Sure, it was mildly cheesy at points- all that morality and stuff, but, it was a really great show, and one I still enjoy watching, thanks to a few episodes I taped off of TV. I know WMAC Masters doesn't have a gigantic fan base, especially so long after the fact, but, it's got loyal fans in me and my friends.

This show featured Martial Art battles\demonstrations. In between each of the fights were backstage storylines developing things like friendships and feuds between the fighters. Later on in the series a storyline developed involving a villain, however I didn't catch all of it. It was an alright show even though it basically copied the WWF and didn't last very long.
