Would the Concussion lawsuit with WWE make a good episode? The cast of people who could be on it is huge.

I skipped the Chris Adams episode since I am not familiar with him. Is it worth watching? Meh. If you’re not familiar, probably not. I am not either and unless you want an hour of how much of a jackass he was when he drank, you won’t learn anything you likely wouldn’t know already.

I skipped the Chris Adams episode since I am not familiar with him. Is it worth watching? I think so if only for the fact that the show interviews the guy who killed him. I can't think of that many documentaries that have that kind of intrigue or scandal. The episode also kind of introduces the idea that maybe Adams' death wasn't actually in self-defense, so if you like watching true crime documentaries, this could be interesting to you.

Colt was a great episode. I had read up on him years ago when I first heard I think it was Mike Boyette mention him. And this episode was packed with info had never heard before.
Chris Adams....man when I was much younger he was one of my favorites. I never knew all the shit he did until when I got online in 98. Was not much in this one I hadnt heard before.After watching the HIGHSPOTS made Chris Adams 2 hour documentary I figured there wasnt going to much at all in this one I didn't know.
And yea I get that this series is for hardcore and casual fans of wrestling. Hell my mother has watched and enjoyed a few and she was never a wrestling fan. My girl loves it and she only watched from 97 through about 2001.
Now Sherri should be another good episode. Heard so many stories about her. Some from vets that worked with her. Others just stories passed down. Her downfall was tragic and sadly it is a story we hear in wrestling too much.

I've been behind in watching this week's episode because real life's been kind of a monster, but I just went to Vice's website to watch it, and see they accidentally have BamBam's episode from last season listed as season 5, episode 10. Um, well, that might get confusing when they actually get around to this season's finale lol

I am not either and unless you want an hour of how much of a jackass he was when he drank, you won’t learn anything you likely wouldn’t know already. Here is where I say that the Mickey Grant documentary, which I think should be on YouTube, is out there too. I watched that first, but I guess this and the episode can compliment one another like Heroes of World Class and Triumph and Tragedy. Now, anyone who remembers, can you answer this: I remember the Rod Price hairweave match making it to GWF television. Only I was "watching" SportsChannel on scramblevision, so the story gets fuzzy. I recall a discussion that claimed the TV presentation of the incident was re-shot to show Rod with his bald head exposed, as they didn't remember seeing the buckets of blood shown. True? I also vaguely remember that after this incident, an angle was done where an opponent of Chris Adams shaved his head so he couldn't pull his hair out too. Did this really happen?

Something out there made it sound like it's Sherri and Black Saturday only.

Were Chris Adams and Dynamite Kid ever in the same room?

I remember sitting by the aisle / backstage area as a young kid and saw Sherri and Ted DiBiase at the curtain together, they were hugging and flirting, when fans noticed them they backed off. I am not sure if they had a thing together or if it will be mentioned on tonights episode. Looking forward to this one!

I've been waiting on a Chris Adams DSOTR episode since the first season. I didn't know much about Adams other than what I'd read in back issues of the Apter mags back in the 90's. And that WCW brought him in to do jobs shortly before I stopped watching WCW. I didn't know anything about what a nut job Adams was until I read Austin's book when it came out. After that I Googled him and my mind was blown. I didn't know any of that stuff about him or that he had been murdered. I don't think I knew he was dead before reading it in Austin's book.

I thought I've seen him before too, but then I kind of thought maybe he looks like Miz's dad and maybe thats why I thought I saw him before Yeah, Miz Dad is what I eventually thought of I thought the same thing. They are doppelgangers for sure.

Sherri reminded me of my own dad, strangely enough. Even down to the begging for forgiveness part after making his career more important than I was. It was way too late at that point.
Just glad the son apparently had a great mother figure regardless.

I didn't realize that Sherri and Jake were as close as they were.

the "GLOWING RED EYES CAUSE HE'S A DEMON!" thing is super hokey in the Chris Adams reenactment.

I mean not really? the only person that really says anything to that effect is Chris's brother, from what I remember. Also before this show for some reason I assumed Adams committed Suicide.

Feel bad for Sherri's son, he and his dad and step mom have been through a lot. Sherri's death also hits hard for me since it happened days before the Benoit tragedy, making the entire month cursed. I recall some sites(including this) with comments after Sherri died that say to stop that awful limo explosion storyline out of respect for Sherri.
