Dark Side of the Ring

The wrestling world is truly a conundrum of what seems like an absolute dream job performing in front of 10's of thousands of fans and millions worldwide. But scratch the service and you will see more disturbing tales and tragedies than Hollywood could ever of mustered up. Dark side of the ring is incredibly well made with thorough investigation and researche into the most shocking and disturbing stories of wrestling. Depending which way you look at it, there are plenty of incidences that will definitely provide material for a few series at least. Even for a neutral you will be entertained with great drama of larger than life characters and stories of sex, drugs and murders will leave you thinking "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON". If you are a fan you will instantly fall in love with this series, with every storied legend having it's own episode. I would just sit back and really enjoy a fantastic series that will just get better as it goes on.

I loved all 6 episodes. Very informative especially for me, since I started watching wrestling in the 80s.

I grew up watching wrestling during the 80s/90s and I'm fascinated by stories of what happened behind the scenes. I've been watching interviews of wrestlers on YouTube for years so when I seen this advertised I was really excited. I've watched the first 4 eps and they've all been brilliant, especially the one about Bruiser Brody which was unbelievable. Hopefully they do more and more of these stories because they are really interesting to watch. 10/10 from me.

This is by far one of the best documentary series ever created. I was a young fan in the attitude era and as I grew up I grew out of wrestling. I didn't know anything of the history before. Watching this and finding out these stories has been breathtaking and I don't want it to end. How can there be so much tragedy in wrestling!?! My younger self can't comprehend it and my adult self is so intrigued. This is a must watch or fans or NOT fans of wrestling.

All 6 episodes are very well done and honest. It was renewed for a 10 episode 2nd season. Im hoping we get stories on Beniot, Warrior, Eddie, Snuka, Hogan and many more. Seriously this could run for at least 10 more seasons with 10 episodes each. Wrestling has had more tragic incidents and darkness attached to it than most people realize. As long as they keep it classy this will be great for a long time.
