for someone who never really got into wrestling (aside from the occasional mexican wrestling), it is still a fascinating watch. very well done and i find myself hanging on to every word. it must be incredible for a diehard fan immersed in its history.

Dark Side of the Ring is a great Documentary and a must see for any individual that considers themselves a fan of Wrestling. Each episode revolves around a different behind the scenes event that gives you a new understanding for some of Wrestlings most iconic superstars.

I think looking through the past series comments (The XPW one in particular) made me think of tape trading. Thats how I knew about that promotion. Anyway I was thinking they should do an episode on Rob Feinstein...Google him kids if you dont know who he is. He was/is sleezy & he didnt like us traders trading his RF Video tapes. But he did have some of the best shoot interviews avail at that time + all the ECW crap including the fan cams.

5 series in & a lot of the episodes have been good. A little list for the non-wrestling fans they might find interesting All of series 1. I think all episodes are good for non-wrestling fans. 2x01 & 2x02: Chris Benoit 2x06 The Assassination of Dino Bravo 2x10: The Final Days of Owen Hart 3x06 In The Shadow of Grizzly Smith 4x03 Breaking the Cycle: The Graham Dynasty 5x10 Black Saturday: The Rise of Vince Clear episodes to skip if you are NOT a wrestling fan 3x03 The Ultra-Violence of Nick Gage (To be fair. Wrestling fans should avoid this episode as well) 3x10 Blood & Wire: Onita's FMW 3x13 Extreme & Obscene: Rob Black's XPW 4x07 Abdullah the Butcher: Legacy of Blood 5x09 Enter Sandman: Legacy of a Hardcore Icon Also to be fair. The ones I listed for the non-wrestling fans to skip are good (I think) but really if you are only a fan of garbage/hardcore wrestling of the past

If you're a true fan of the art of professional wrestling, you owe it to yourself to watch this series. Probably one of the most fascinating, no-holds-barred, insightful looks at the stuff that actually goes on "Beyond the Mat" (another great watch, btw). Every episode was very telling, and many had More
