Brilliant interview. The Paul Bearer and Brothers of Destruction documentaries from this week have been top notch as well. It really is. Really interesting to hear Taker’s thoughts on how the streak was ended too. The Teddy Long story was amusing on it own, but was made all the better seeing Austin and Taker so far removed from kayfabe properly having a giggle about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seen various interviews and his brutal honesty is a great quality. There are lots of interviews with wrestlers or ex wrestlers where you can tell most of them are trying to come across as straight-up honest guys with all the integrity. Their patter is almost kayfabe in itself though. Nash on the other hand just tells it like it is and doesn’t give a f**k what folk think. Q - Why would you do the job for so-and-so? A - He sucks and he’s an asshole. Q - Why didn’t you stay with WWF? A - Because WCW offered me a f**k-ton more money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeArab Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Watching some free TLC’s on the network. Watching 2010 just now, an excellent TLC between Edge v Kane v Rey Mysterio v Del Rio. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 AJ Styles Untold is pretty good. Was hoping it’d dive a bit deeper into TNA though. Maybe we’ll get a full documentary on him down the line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Naitch Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Just watched the Pat Patterson documentary. What a lovely, heartfelt look over his life. Had a tear in my eye by the end of it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FairWeatherFan Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 In the US the network is now getting tied up in NBCUniversal's streaming service 'Peacock'. They've probably ran out of new subscribers in the US and it makes sense to sell the rights. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sherrif John Bunnell Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 That seems like very good value for money. Although it seems like they are keen to go back to a purely PPV model for the monthly shows. I wonder if BT Sport would be interested in a similar streaming deal over here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure how it will work over here. Don't see anything changing, as BT don't really have a streaming service that would make sense to extend their deal to takeover the UK network. Said to be worth more than $1bn over 5 years. So that's far better than what they would be doing from US network subscribers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forameus Posted January 25, 2021 Share Posted January 25, 2021 Didn't realise there was more on this in here, but as I said in the other thread, seems like a decent enough deal for customers in the US, and for WWE themselves. However, Peacock made an absolutely aching arse of taking The Office from Netflix, so who knows what'll happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, Peacock made an absolutely aching arse of taking The Office from Netflix, so who knows what'll happen. I would say Peacock has fudged things a little with their payment structure to make it confusing. Free that presumably has ads, small pay monthly with ads, premium with no ads. Probably smarter long term though as it helps develop corporate sponsors that aid in financially supporting it. It's not going to roll out internationally in the same way netflix & disney+ have. At least not anytime soon. So cant hope for an ever expanding international subscriber base in the same way. Seems like a good deal for them as they pick a million subscribers, as i dont imagine there's much existing overlap. Certainly a better deal than HBOXMAX dumping their box office movies on it this year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGoon Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 The Yokozuna documentary is fantastic, gets pretty heartbreaking towards the end though. Wasn’t a guy I knew a lot about outside of the gimmick but he seemed like a top fella. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ludo*1 Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 He was in Dundee wrestling in a local show a few month before he died when I was a kid. I hate to think now how depressing that fall from grace would have been for him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sherrif John Bunnell Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 It was a good attempt at their own version of Dark Side of the Ring. I imagine Hulk Hogan being a c**t will be a topic in every episode. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
