WIRELESS SYSTEMS HAVE BEEN IN use since the 1980s, and they have become better and costs have come down. However, the continuing problem with wireless systems is dependable transmission, as you need a high quality, digitally agile diversity system that has really good dynamics and low noise.
In addition, unless you have a super high-end system (such as the Shure Axient or Sennheiser 9000), the wireless will introduce a tonal change and/or slight delay (latency). Purists do not use wireless systems for tonal reasons, and too much latency is no fun, as a musician cannot play a note and then expect to be in time with the drummer if there is a delay.
