I don't want to speak badly of Warrior because I do think he was a guy who loved his fan base but I also think he knew his days were numbered and either accept the WWE offer or reached out to them knowing so. I doubt he changed much from what he said just a few years earlier but rather probably had a grim diagnosis and knew the HOF induction was the only was he would wind up being seen positively in the afterlife. The WWE HOF and the WWE money has a way of getting guys who have turned down WWE for years coming back to the fold. I also believe what Billy Graham said in that Bruno did the HOF for money rather than believing WWE had changed for the better with their drug testing and more family friendly programing. I like Warrior and glad he got the "Ultimate" sendoff into the afterlife but he's too coincidental that he passed so quickly. He had to know his days were numbered and that this reconciliation with WWE would be best for his legacy.

I hope the ring boy scandal is covered. Seems more pertinent now. Anyway, Dynamite Kid content has apparently been filmed with his family. List of other topics I've seen planned: Chris Kanyon Bruiser Bedlam XPW WCW Collision in Korea Brian Pillman Sr. |

ah man, if they go deep into dynamite's story, which they likely will, this will not do any good for people's already negative perception of him. pointing the gun at his wife, and harming a girl for insurance claims are all potentially addressed events.

So last night my DVR recorded the Geno Hernandez story even though I saw it last season and have the DVR set to record new episodes only. Anyway it listed it as new and it was called “Darkside of the Ring Confidential” It seemed to be 30 minutes longer than I remember them being. It was 1 hour and 30 minutes. I didn’t watch it yet, but are they changing the format and adding footage to them now?

Is there really anything left unsaid on the Plane Ride From Hell? It's been picked apart in shoots over the years. I don't see it being that compelling of an episode.

He just has a history of saying stupid s*** on twitter that gets him in hot water. Like a less worse version of TJP or Flip Gordon. Just because you dont agree with it doesnt mean its stupid... |

Don't know if stuff is tagged onto the end or is interspersed throughout in reworked eps or what. wrestlingnews.co/wwe-news/vice-tv-to-premiere-dark-side-of-the-ring-confidential-next-week/ |

Like mentioned above its a bonus addition where they sit down with the directors and some of the guests and discuss further...Most importantly you get to listen to Conrad Thompson |

I mean Warrior said some awful things about Katrina victims that died, Martin Luther King Jr, and Bobby Heenan...which when you think about him talking about karma getting Heenan with cancer... Heenan outlived Warrior  Heenan started that feud. You can only publicly talk so much trash about someone before they clap back. Same thing happened with Hogan and Nash. |

Pointing out how someone is unprofessional and couldn’t work isn’t the same as celebrating someone having cancer. |

Not Darkside, but I just saw commercials for a couple other wrestler based shows.
Reels has a show called Autopsy which will feature Macho Man this Sunday.
Then on the 16th(?) A&E has an 8 part mini Series documentary which will start with Stone Cold but also feature Bret, HBK, Macho, Booker T and I forget who else they said.

nothing on the dk episode in that trailer
I get that he wasn't a good person, but I hope they do due diligence and clarify how much of a victim of abuse he himself was.
