{Spoiler}{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}So way too tan Undertaker, too thin Mankind, too thin Iron Sheik, small nose Hunter Hearst Helmsley . . who are the others supposed to be? Specifically who is the guy in the green trunks? Kind of looks like Dick Murdock. {Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW}That's THE RINGMASTER himself, Steve Austin!

OMG they put Mantaur in it!!!! LOL. Now that they are getting to the attitude era, I'm really getting interested. I think they show has gotten better in Season 2, but I might be in the minority. The only thing I find odd is I don't at all care about his "current day" presidential run. I like Randall Park, but I just find myself not caring about present day Rock in the show. The show is generally light entertainment and I mostly enjoy it, despite the liberties taken with wrestling history. Maybe it's like American Dreams (another NBC show) where you just say, "Cool, it's those people I remember..." Not as must see to me as Ghosts, but I still usually catch it.

Renewed for a third season Yay, more wrestling history goofs for (redacted) to pick apart! But really, I like it for what it is. Met Brett "Iron Sheik" Azar too, cool guy.

And at least its not as bad as the Goldbergs WWF episode where Wrestlemania 4 took place in Philadelphia and opened with a Hogan vs Andre cage match.

Question, inspired by the Rocky Johnson Wrest thread....is there any wrestlers or personalities that have been banned from being used on YR?

I think it's safe to assume we won't be seeing Rock meet Chris Benoit Well it goes without saying. I wonder if Snuka is the same? I think I heard someone said they couldn't/wouldn't use Hogan...he is name dropped and someone is seen with a Hulkamania shirt in S2, though.

I think that would be more to do with, if you involve Hogan in any way, he’ll exploit it to the absolute maximum and make himself a complete pain in the tits.

"I was a co-writer for Young Rock, brother. Much love HH" /Which would explain the historic inaccuracies, if nothing else.

It was a decent show, but once it moved nights and was only on Peacock, I didn't watch it.

I kinda knew, as the ending was just enough of a conclusion. And the Friday Death Slot.
Was it the strike? Ratings?

I'll never see the rise of the Ric Flair/Hillbilly Jim tag team.
