That Tenta episode was a tough watch at the end. Seemed like one of the good guys from the business. I teared up a little at the affection that he and his wife shared. You could tell than they were meant for one another.

Jake called him a sweet man in the Dark Side and I was listening to a clip of Eric Bischoff and his words were also a "sweet man." John, by every account was a great man and a great family man. I love the story of Bossman trying to rib him with having some woman go to see John and John getting legit pissed at Bossman saying he's loyal to his wife. John's episode was tear inducing but in such a good, wholesome way. But just so unfair he only made it to 42.

Just finished watching the Terry Gordy episode, definitely check it out, however all these guys, Corny, Foley, etc talking about how he wasn't there anymore after that Japan plane ride, but yet all these guys still booked him and just wanted him to become the "old" Terry Gordy again, they all sure didn't mind making the money off of him by putting him out there. They all just talked about that blank stare of his and his way of speaking and they had to know he couldn't do it anymore. Welcome to wrestling. True. But I also think they were trying to help him out. What else was Terry Gordy going to do for work to support his family. And I also got the impression that everyone thought he would snap out of it and return to his old form. Kind of like a person who has amnesia who eventually regains his/her memory, but it never happened. Sad to see.

The Sherri Martel episode was kind of hard to watch.

I felt bad for her son now. He clearly is batting mouth/throat cancer. From how he looked at the 2006 HOF till now is like how Bobby Heenan's face/head went with his cancer battles. Poor guy.

Wasn't a fan of the Sandman episode.
Very shocking to find out he used to be a Chippendale dancer!

Did anyone else think Bob Roop was Ole Anderson when he first appeared on that episode of Black Saturday?!
It's like, "Ole Anderson can't be on it cause he is too sick at the time, so we will just have Bob Roop look like Ole Anderson to be on the episode talking instead."

You could tell than they were meant for one another. ‘There’s a poster on Reddit, I think Tentas son, that posted some old candid photos. Guy seemed like a really loving father.
