Nacho Libre

El Snowflake

Ignacio, a disrespected cook at a Mexican monastery, can barely afford to feed the orphans who live there.

Wrestling Society X

Human Tornado

Wrestling Society X was a short-lived professional wrestling-based television series produced in 2006 by Big Vision Entertainment. The weekly television series formerly aired on MTV, MTV2, MTV Tr3s, and over a dozen other MTV outlets throughout the world. WSXtra, an extra program featuring WSX matches and interviews not broadcast on television, was available on the promotion's MTV website and Video on Demand. WSX was presented as a secret society of wrestling that used a venue referred to as the WSX Bunker, complete with an artificially worn-out looking ring for its matchups. In matches held within this venue, falls count anywhere was the stipulation. The program also stood out due to its unorthodox approach to pro wrestling; this included frequent use of highly expressive plants, crowd sound effects, electrical sound effects, visual effects, and camera shaking when a wrestler would fall prey to electrical weapons. Along with wrestling, WSX featured musical guests playing at the start of each television broadcast, with some band members joining the broadcast team after the performance.

Chris Hero: Ring of Hero

Human Tornado

From an unwanted outsider to an athletic marvel to a King of Wrestling, Chris Hero has come so far during his tenure in Ring of Honor and this is where it all started. This compilation includes over 20 of Hero's best matches & moments starting from his debut against Bryan Danielson that kicked off a 7 month war with CZW, his first tag title reign with Claudio Castagnoli, Chris' days with Sweet 'N' Sour Inc, and through the early days of "That Young Knockout Kid". Whether it be singles competition or in tag team matches, Hero has stepped into the ring with everyone from Samoa Joe to Nigel McGuinness, Roderick Strong to Lance Storm, and Austin Aries to The Briscoes just to name a few. He concusses with his kicks, he KO's with his elbows, and with all his successes in Ring of Honor, Chris can certainly claim that ROH actually stands for Ring of Hero...
