New Rivalry: New York vs. Texas

In the next episode the show previews a new rivalry is shaping on Storage Wars Texas. It's between the "Out of Towner" New Yorker Victor Rjesnjansky and the "Good ol' Boys" from Big Ricky and Bubba Smith from Texas. They are expected to duke it out over lockers and create compelling drama for the next episode and throughout the first season.

I think this will be a good development for the show. Victor is arguably the most interesting character so far as an antagonist and it only makes sense for him to start up drama with the natives similar to how Dave Hester did it in the original Storage Wars.

This sequel is struggling to gain it's footing in the shadow of the ever popular original show, but this development should help solidify it's place in the Storage Wars family. Stay tuned for more Storage Wars: Texas news!

Exclusive: Before the Show, Victor made this video featuring him looking at a storage locker he bought! Check it out!

This Storage Wars Texas bidder reminds me a bit of Dave Hester. He doesn't have a catch phrase like the signature "YUUUP" that dave sports, but he's edgy, has an attitude, and is ruthless in his bidding style just like the mogul. In episode 2 this week, Bounty Hunter Bubba Fett, he reportedly flips a locker for 20 times the price he purchased it for!

That kind of lick is what we're used to seeing from Mr. Dave Hester and hopefully this will be an exciting episode to watch. I think so far this character is my favorite character to hate just like Dave. He's from New Jersey. He has greasy hair, seems a little unsavory, and comes off as a jerk sometimes. Just what we need to stir up some drama in Storage Wars - Texas, the producers just have to push him to get a little more rowdy and we'll have a real show on our hands!
