Viceland's Dark Side of the Ring documentary series

[Bandit]

That Buff episode was crazy. His life was so wild I was exhausted hearing bout it. And that probably wasn't all of his stories, they need a part 2.

[Bandit]

All of the Hogan reenactments in the hospital were hilarious.

[Bandit]

That Harley episode was fantastic. That guy never had a dull moment in his life.

[Bandit]

The Sherri episode was pretty bleak.

[Ocelot]

Yeah I'm about to watch it and I don't know if I'm ready for this shit.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

[Bandit]

I recorded it, I'll watch it tonight. I had to get up extra early for work so was asleep by 10.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

It looks like it should be good. A little less WWE bias than usual...maybe.

[Ocelot]

It was ok. Nothing revolutionary if you've read the books like I have but there's some backstage footage. I'm interested in hearing more interview clips from the guys at Turner that are on the interviews. I'll probably keep watching. And no, it isn't a puff piece at all.

[Bandit]

Yeah, it's decent. The best part was Bret shitting on the Starrcade '97 booking. They need to make a show where they show Bret dumb WCW angles and he buries them.

[Ocelot]

YO
There is ALL KINDS of Dark Side of the Ring stuff on Tubi, which is free!

[Dr. Zoidberg]

[Bandit]

He's right. I don't think he should have beaten Goldberg, but every show I went to with Nash on the show he was one of the most over guys.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

He was over, but not for much longer after that.

The crowd would have gone just as nuts if Disco Inferno pinned Goldberg to end the streak.

That would have been hilarious

[Ocelot]

Second episode was pretty good. The buck-passing even 25 years after WCW died is still hilarious to see. What a clusterfuck.

The book Nitro is a great read too (I mention this because one of the interviewees is on the show) and is the best chronicle about what happened with WCW you will ever read. I daresay it's the truth, or as close to it s we will ever get beyond all the buck passing and ass kissing and blame throwing.

[Bandit]

Completely off topic: I fell asleep with Viceland on and woke up at 3am. They had Women Of Wrestling on all night. Boy, was that a strange wrestling show. They have the most random gimmicks feuding with each other. Like one woman doing a heavy metal gimmick against a military gimmick, very 80s. 3am is a perfect time for it when you're groggy and don't know what's going on.

[Dr. Zoidberg]

Was that the current WoW or the one from 2000?

[Bandit]

Current.
