avant s 06/01/2020 Few selective episodes were really good, some i didnt care for. the more behind the scene of wrestling i watch the more i start to despise wwe. chris jericho narration was the best part of season 2. See more dave d 05/27/2020 This may be a little too inside baseball for the casual wrestling fan, but for fans of old school 80s/90s wrestling and the personalities that often were larger than life this is really good. For the people who are not wrestling fans I suggest tapping into Owen Hart's season finale episode or the Chris Benoit two-hour special. From there pick and choose what you want to see. It's fantastic! See more 04/26/2020 Awesome show!!! I was a fan of wrestling as a kid I know all these wrestlers and to find out all of this crazy stuff that's happened it blows you away!!!
