The second -- and final -- Wrestling Society X champion, Ricky Banderas had an eventful run in the promotion. He won the title from Vampiro in his debut match, but only after tossing a fireball in Vampiro's face in an earlier episode.

It's worth noting that MTV thought the fireball spot was too graphic, so they used special effects to turn it into some sort of space-warping emanation which struck Vamp in the face. It was exceptionally weird. All it needed was a lens flare to be the most obnoxious Photoshop edit of all time.

Banderas continued to exhibit supernatural powers in his wrestling matches, whether he was conquering the dead as Mil Muertes in Lucha Underground, teleporting into the ring and spitting up blood as Judas Mesias in TNA, or being thrown into a volcano in AAA.

It's good to keep busy.
