Dark Side of the Ring - Viceland show for wrestling fans

[Fairfield_1st]

My brother let me know about this show. I've watched the first 2 episodes and found it pretty interesting. The program goes beyond the ring and looks at some of the wrestling incidents over the years. Episode 1 was about Macho Man, Miss Elizabeth, Lex luger and all that went on there. Episode 2 was about the "Montreal Screwjob" and episode 3 will be about the murder of Bruiser Brody in Puerto Rico. To name a few folks they've interviewed in the episodes: Brett Hart, Eric Bischoff, Vince Russo, Jim Cornette, Jake the Snake, Linda Hogan, Scott Hall & Bruce Pritchard/Brother Love. Interesting for folks that dig some of wrestling's history.

There is a you tube channel "wrestlelamia" that has a lot of similar stuff. Also worth checking out I think.

Watched the first 3 it’s well done and interesting. Nothing there that Smarks aren’t already intimately knowledgeable about, but still good commentaries from the right people.

enjoyed the Bruiser Brody episode . . . ."Boney" Tony Atlas was always at the World Gym East in Hamden mid-1980's, nice guy.

but still good commentaries from the right people.

Mostly agree except for Scott Hall in the Montreal episode. Said he and Michaels never talked about what happened. BS. Best of friends definitely talked about it. He knows and wasn't telling.

yeah, no doubt, scott is still a huge mark for the business and still likes the reality/kayfabe swerving.
