LU isn't even a real wrestling company so I don't see how they could enforce those contracts. But most wrestling companies don't have the resources or the interest in fighting a legal battle.

Well, luckily for LU they have plenty of wrestlers who legally are required to be there, whether they want to work there or not.

which always makes for great matches

Sam Adonis's only redeeming quality is he isn't as much of a steaming pile of stupid as his brother.

Which this makes me wonder, how did Marty end up with physical possession of the belt?

Honestly I recall less of a decline in quality than it just being harder to pay attention to because it was obvious their fate was sealed and also they burned through pretty much all the goodwill they had when it came out they were leaving all their wrestlers on the hook waiting for possible renewal.

It was a good idea for a wrestling show, if only they’d had a business plan behind it.

I think they were really banking on Season 1 really going places, business-wise. There were tons of problems with even that season. Canned/heavily edited wrestling always does poorly. When your opening match of your first episode is Chavo Guerrero and I can't remember, that really damped a lot of channel flickers interest.
