Sources

The following material is unsourced

Erik Betts (Panther) couldn't appear in season 2 due to a severe injury (broken hip) so his character was written out implying he was taken out by Jukido, according to Tracer. Bridgett Riley (Baby Doll) left the show to pursue a female boxing career; she appeared once in Season 2 where she lost a preliminary match to Sophia Crawford (Chameleon).
Lynnette Love (Tarantula), Herb Perez (Olympus) and Rey-Phillip Santos were a part of the Tae Kwon Do US Olympic Team.
Christine Rodrigues (Lady Lightning) is the only one to change her costume. Her season 1 uniform was purple, while her season 2 uniform was black and gold; she revealed the new look in the season 2 episode "Ladies' Night". However, Sophia Crawford's (Chameleon) costume changed color during her matches. "Color Change" would be pronounced and Crawford would pop up with a different color uniform (alternating between green, blue and pink); her uniform represented the fact that actual chameleons do change color.
Three new masters were to be introduced. Pedro Xavier as 'Axeman', Clayton Barber as 'Hollywood' and Rey-Phillip Santos as 'Reign'. Unfortunately this never happened because of the show being cancelled.

While this is interesting, we can't use it unless you provide a source. Also, none of this is really trivia, as trivia by its definition is "unimportant information" - it therefore shouldn't be in a trivia section but instead the information should be incorporated into the main article. - Tbsdy lives (talk) 05:04, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I really think that this pieces of information are very interesting and it's worth to be inputed on the main article. As a fan, a really thank for this "non-trivia but triva-like" content! - FabioSilenoz

Trivia-like info

One fact that I think it will serve as a Trivia it's the fact that here in Brazil - in the dubbed version in portuguese -, the name of the criminal martial-artists organization "Jukido" was transformed into "Shakiro". This kind of modifications are quite normal on portuguese dubs, for some foreing names woud have a strange/funny spelled form, witch coud cause that character/movement/show to not make success among it's targeting audience. By the way, I think "Jukido" sounds kind of lame... "Shakiro" adds much more punch as a name. Hope I could help with something interesting! And even tough I can't give any relliable souce for this info (I have searched, but here in Brazil the series was not that sucessfull, unfortunally), you guys can just leave it here in Discussion - just as an extra. Cheers! - FabioSilenoz —Preceding undated comment added 11:53, 31 January 2011 (UTC).[reply]

Suspect Vandalism

I have noticed that in the topic witch depicts the martial-art of each master, there is something wrong. Some character named "The Rat", who supposed to fight Judo... this look`s like a vandalism to me. Or am I wrong? - FabioSilenoz

Hello, This is not false information. In the same episode in which Taimak (Striking Eagle) appears, you can see 'The Rat' fighting Hakim (Machine) Alston. The Rat is a banned fighter and nothing else is known about him. But his face, suit and name are mentioned and shown. Regards, johan.aders

Slow and steady clean up

Hello anyone who happens to be reading this. I put out a book on the show this past year after interviewing nearly all of the cast and major crew. I'll be undertaking a massive clean up and myth busting on this article, which I have just started. I don't want to be seen as just plugging my work, so I'm hesitant to start adding myself as a reference straight away, but I'd be happy to provide bona fides if need be. Looking forward to any help and/or questions! --WMACMastersBook (talk) 22:59, 25 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
