A friend sent me some DVDS all the way from England and this was one of them. All I can say is wow. This was the best wrestling documentary I have ever seen. I felt they did a good job of pointing out the best and worst of the promotion. Man how great would it be to do a similar doc on Midsouth? It is a shame how World Class ended up. Those boys transcended wrestling stardom and the death of David began the death of World Class. The saga of Mike was so tragic. You know you could see that the fever did something to his mind, you could see in his eyes he wasn't all there. While it was the high road I do feel the film makers dropped the ball because they did not mention that Doris left Fritz after Kerry's death as she could not take another tragedy and blamed Fritz. In cases like this you don't want to blame anyone but Fritz dropped the ball as a Father and the film makers seemed to down play the drug porblems the boys had. They would mention it off hand, but their drug abuse is legendary and led to many of their problems.

it is a well done doc. it would be wonderful if the same people could do one on Mid-South, since it has yet to be gobbled up by the wwe.
it's also too bad they couldn't talk to Flair or any of the people that went through the territory while it was still with the NWA, but it was nice to see some of the shoot videos with Chris Adams and all.
i think that the producers figured the drug use is so well known to the audience of the DVD that they really didn't have to mention it.
it's a shame about the whole family.

Hey Dave what is on the second disc? I have a copy of the first one and you sent me the cardboard sleeve and saw it said 2 discs. Does it have any matches?

i don't think so- there's some interviews and things that seemed barely relevant to the first disc. however, i'll burn you one and you can judge for yourself, how's that?
