Has discrepancies
"Wrestlers" gives a backstage look at the struggles of running an indie wrestling promotion and the struggles of wrestlers trying to make it to the big leagues. It even shows the human side of the investors involved.
It's a documentary but at the same time it feels like a long commercial as well, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. During the course of 7 episodes they try to tell this underdog story though and I noticed some discrepancies.
They claim OVW is the C level of wrestling (A would be WWE and AEW, B would be TNA and C is them). They also claim they're the only indie promotion out there that airs (weekly) on local television. Guess they forgot about Booker T's Reality of Wrestling.
When Al Snow considers to step in the ring for OVW they tell the story that it's the first time he's had a match in over 10 years even though he's wrestled multiple matches in the years and even months prior to the event.
No doubt they this so they could tell a compelling underdog kind of story but this makes me question the legitimacy of the rest of this documentary.
