Beautiful Start
Being a huge Stephen Amell fan and an even bigger wrestling fan, I was extremely excited for this. And it lived up to my hype.
Although it is a wrestling show it is much more than that.
The first episode laid the foundations for the rest of the episodes. The cast work well together.
The set, the characters, the story, and the costumes all are amazing.
It might be too soon to say I am in love with the show, but I can say that I cant wait for the next episode.

Straight to the heart and ego
Episode 1: The pilot is well done with nice storyline plots, good acting, sporty setting and atmosphere.
It shows well the rivalry between the two brothers, their friends, foes and families. It's a little slow, but that is because of semi adequate development and in order to boil down the next episodes to the right temperature.
It lacks suspense, is semi good on the vibe and flow and possess definite talent to engorge viewers with drama and wrestling as it's meant to.
I would have liked it to be more brutal, more focused on the sport that's wrestling with less drama and a little more development all set in a bigger town.

Perfection
This first episode is perfect to start. The choice of actors is so right. I'm no fan of mr Ludwig. He is not bad. But not my actor. Here he shines as Stephen Amell more cocky brother while the face in the ring. Amell is the heel and wrote the scripts. He basically do everything in the wrestling business in and out of the ring.
Can't wait for episode 2 but I'm sold. This is 11/10.

Amazing, Perfect
Everything was great. I loved the feel, the pacing, the dive into the behind the scenes of wrestling, the setting, the plotline and THE ENDING. I can't wait for the next episodes.

Outstanding!!
I haven't watched "Wresting" in almost 15 years. I also am not fan of new shows. When people talk about those pretentious new Netflix shows, I usually turn the other cheek.
STARZ has been over-hyping the hell out of it, so I gave it a shot at 5am before work. I was glued from the first minute. Perfectly paced, great acting, and the 3 main female leads are gorgeous!! (check out Alison Luff's shape). Also, Mary McCormack is no spring chicken and she is still rocking that voluptuous body and her acting is on point.
This pilot laid the groundwork for the season and I cannot wait for the 2nd episode!! I highly recommend this to non wrestling fans as much and maybe more to hardcore nerds out there! Check it out!!
10/10.

Reminds me of The Wrestler
A well paced, well written episode. Setting is brilliant. It is a fast episode but doesnt feel like they are rushing things and many vital storylines take place simultaneously and all fits in naturally except the Crystal situation where it seems a but forced, lets hope its a wrestling issue nd not of any deprived rights in an private organization agenda.
Honest opinion
S1.E1 - Great Way to Start the Season [9/10]

Kelli is ruining a good show
Her character is a sex doll and she doesn't know how to act.

Ace is not believable
