    If this is fake, I don't want to know what's real

    The wrestling world is truly a conundrum of what seems like an absolute dream job performing in front of 10's of thousands of fans and millions worldwide. But scratch the service and you will see more disturbing tales and tragedies than Hollywood could ever of mustered up. Dark side of the ring is incredibly well made with thorough investigation and researche into the most shocking and disturbing stories of wrestling. Depending which way you look at it, there are plenty of incidences that will definitely provide material for a few series at least. Even for a neutral you will be entertained with great drama of larger than life characters and stories of sex, drugs and murders will leave you thinking "WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON". If you are a fan you will instantly fall in love with this series, with every storied legend having it's own episode. I would just sit back and really enjoy a fantastic series that will just get better as it goes on.

    Intriguing! Could watch for hours!

    I grew up watching wrestling during the 80s/90s and I'm fascinated by stories of what happened behind the scenes. I've been watching interviews of wrestlers on YouTube for years so when I seen this advertised I was really excited. I've watched the first 4 eps and they've all been brilliant, especially the one about Bruiser Brody which was unbelievable. Hopefully they do more and more of these stories because they are really interesting to watch. 10/10 from me.

    info for wrestling fans

    I have been watching and attending pro wrestling shows for over 50 years and this is the first thing I have seen that matches the power of the Von Erich documentary called "Faded Glory" Dark Side of the Ring shoud be viewed by any fan. the best thing done on this subject in many many years.

    What a great series. For a fan of wrestling in the 80s &. 90s so much from behind the scenes and great interviews and insight.💪🏻

    Pretty damn good!

    We had seen a "commercial" for this show and we got excited. It's pretty damn interesting and good! Brilliant.
