Fireball gets Wrestling Society X pulled from MTV.

On February 20, 2007, MTV was set to air it's fourth episode of Wresting Society X. In the main event, Vampiro was defending his newly-crowned WSX World Heavyweight title against Sean "6pac" Waltman.

However, the episode never aired on that date due to an incident involving Vampiro and Ricky Banderas when Banderas threw a massive fireball, engulfing Vampiro's entire skull in flames.

MTV felt that children watching at home would try to immitate the spot, and felt it was too violent for it's audience. Ironically, the airing of the show was replaced by an episode of Scarred, an MTV reality show that interviews people with massive scars and then gives the back story of why those scars occured.

On Febuary 27, the episode finally aired on MTV but the fireball spot was edited out. A week later on March 2nd, MTV pulled all the episodes of Wrestling Society X and the show was canceled, but still to this day, several of WSXtras (matches unaired on television) can be found on MTV's website.
