Jesus Jericho really is turning into Axel Rose.

Is he really though? At least Jericho's working to keep himself in some of shape, Axl's been missing in action/not seen since Guns N' Roses wrapped their Not In This Lifetime Tour in November 2019. He probably won't be seen again until Guns N' Roses head for Australia later this year.

I believe the channel is closing down.

The ultimate warrior, grizzly smith, and the dynamite kid ? Jesus there’s a cheerful triple. I assume the warrior episode will go into the horrible person he was and the horrible things he said ? Hopefully this is the real self destruction of the ultimate warrior because the person outside the ring needs to be exposed. I mean what kind of asshole do you need to be to take pleasure in someone getting cancer ?

There's this (very bloody) trailer to whet the appetite...

Cough Cough episode 1 is around

Cracking opening episode looking forward to part 2.

Nice to see Dave is being interviewed as he was good friends with Pillman and helped him out a lot.

Just installed the vice app on Roku. Don't see the episode. Has it gone or is there a different version of the app?

It's on YouTube or was earlier anyway.

I watched Part 1 and it was probably the best episode I've seen from the series to date. Most of the episodes I found that if you were a fan nothing of note really happened as you knew the story, but this was different; Brian's family really added a fascinating element.

I don't enjoy seeing anyone in Melanie Pillman's situation, and it was uncomfortable hearing about her actions and how much hatred Pillman's daughter had for her. Pillman jr managed to grow up to be quite decent in spite of his mental family life.

The Randy Savage A&E Biography is good but very similar to the Dark side of the ring episode about the death of Ms Elizabeth

Seeing Eric Bischoff’s wife on it as a talking head was interesting and nice to see someone new talking about that time.

Conrad was upset bout it saying it was a hit job.. I didn’t know much about his later career and his time in wcw with gorgeous George

The White Wolf

Watched part 2 and it was rough going with the Melanie stuff and the abuse the kids went through, but I was so glad to see Pillman's sister was watching over them. It really is an inspiring story.

Definitely my favourite episodes of the series so far.

Have episode 2 download and ready to watch

Not only that but it's a marvel he ended up the seemingly well rounded individual he is as well as his sisters. Hearing the abuse he and they went through after Brian Senior died was rough going. I was infuriated by it.

Funny thing is that I still pity Melanie.

Agent Coulson

Nick Gage this week lots of mental health issues right there.

After watching it I really do think David Arquette would make a good episode even thought his story was mostly covered in his own doc You Cannot Kill David Arquette

Itssoeasy

Decided to watch the Brian Pillman episode part 1 and Jesus life has not been kind to Melanie pillman. His sister seems like a god send for his kids just by the way they’ve spoken about her.

The White Wolf

I was nauseous 10 seconds into Nick Gage. Headcases the lot of them.

Just started the Nick Gage episode.
I am not really squeamish but only a few minutes in and I'm finding it hard to watch

Cornette?

I'm not all that up on the death match stuff but it's pretty sickening based on this episode. He literally kills himself at one point and you're meant to show respect?
