Christopher “Smash Master Show” Wengert is a UsefulNotes/NewYorkCity Website/YouTube personality who hosts a VideoReviewShow. The channel offers two main shows: Smash Master Show (the main show, generally game reviews) and Top 10 Lists (self explanatory). In addition, the channel also hosts reaction videos as well as a slew of various videos based on whatever Chris feels like making. In 2013, he opened a second channel called Smash Master Stuff where he uploads videos that wouldn't fit on his main channel as well as various old videos of his.
