Wow! Incredible

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.

Old school fans will love it.

What a great series. For a fan of wrestling in the 80s &. 90s so much from behind the scenes and great interviews and insight.💪🏻

A must for any wrestling fan

Nothing really new here that you can't find on many many YouTube channel but the production quality and interviews are of a much high standard If you grew up watching wrestling anytime in the late 70's through to the early 90's this series is absolutely gold

A few weaker episodes but the really big stories make up for those as a whole The bruiser brody episode is a high light.
