We're only three five episodes in (Bischoff, Angle, Charlotte, Miz, Cesaro), but this has quickly become one of my absolute favorite shows on the Network. It's such a simple concept: Wrestlers sit down in front of a projector and are shown some pivotal (and sometimes funny) career photos of them, and they offer their thoughts on the moment. WWE splices in some additional video footage for contextual purposes (i.e. Charlotte's time in WCW as a kid) and it all comes together as a very entertaining/informative watch.
I hope this series becomes a regular thing after its initial run. Seems cheaper to produce, so hopefully that helps.

The pilot they showed on Youtube with Miz was fantastic.

Okay the title of it is hilariously disheartening, but this sounds like a cool concept, I might check it out after all.

It’s one of the best things on the Network right now, which basically means it’ll be cancelled soon.

Oh wow, I never thought they'd even approach him to do this. I know he did a Table for 3 and all that, but he's been kinda away since then. That will be a hell of an episode.

I want that picture of a smug looking Vince Russo to appear when he is wearing his Knicks shirt and sandals.

The Cornette one was pretty good. He was in positive spirits. Lots of rare pictures/early videos shown, which was cool. Plus, alternate angle smug Russo.

There are a few clips of Cornette interviews from Houston Wrestling in the opening minutes. I'm assuming those are via the Watts library as it looks like Bill Watts got copies of the footage since it was his roster that was being used on Houston cards at the time.

New episode premiered last night with Kofi Kingston.
I’m surprised nobody brought this up, given that they show a photo and he talks about his friendship with his former tag champion and ex-wrestler Chicagoan.

Caught a few episodes(Goldust,Cesaro,Bischoff), good stuff. Simple, straightforward premise and it works.

Goldust and Godfather episodes were so much fun.

Have they been promoting these? I've fallen out of watching the shows in full lately so this was a really nice surprise!
Goldust, man! An excellent choice for an episode. If they never do a proper Goldust doc, at least we have this. I felt like they strangely missed some iconic stuff: the unforgettable Battleground pose with Cody/Goldy/Dusty fresh off a victory against Roman and Seth, 1997 with Luna, some of his later career moments. But overall it was such a good watch. Loved seeing all the old vignette footage, the BookDust stuff, and the detailed recollection of the Wrestlemania backlot brawl with Piper. I never knew they shot that thing 2 weeks in advance - I always figured it was before the show started or the day prior.
Still gotta see The Godfather's.
