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.
This show is an excellent show it is very well choreographed and the acting is good but best of all it is just plain fun to watch. If I could chose any show to bring back it would be this but since the show ended on a cliffhanger a lot of people would really want to see it. sure the idea is loosely WWE but still this show is extremely good. If they ever make a full DVD set of this I would 100% buy this without a doubt. If you can you should buy one of 3 2 episode videos they may still sell some places. All the actors are very skilled martial artists and Chris Casamassa was even in Mortal Combat as Scorpion. All have training background and some even are now professional Martial artists. Even though it's been 10 years it wouldn't kill fox or anyone to take out just one 5 A.M. Blender infomercial and put in WMAC Masters.
This show was off the hook. It gave good insight to the different worlds of martial arts and kept you hooked by the storylines. All the actors on the show were actual martial artists and know how to entertain a crowd. It was fun seeing the titles jump from person to person.
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.

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.
Did you know
- TriviaIt was initially planned for the series to be set in Las Vegas, at a fictional themed hotel/casino where the Masters trained and competed for high stakes. Accordingly, their Dragon Belt-status would determine the odds and subsequent payoffs (5 to 6, 7 to 4, 3 to 8, 9 to 2, and so on) except during Dragon Star Matches (in which the odds would be 11 to 10). This idea was promptly nixed, however, out of concern that the show might encourage gambling among young people.

Tracey Swedom: It's like chess, you sacrifice a few pieces, and before you know it--checkmate.
Chameleon: Well that's putting a positive spin on things.
