WMAC Masters (1995–1996)
It deserved better
23 December 2001
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.
