There’s going to be a lot of ground to cover there.

Worries me a bit because it’s all his yes men that are being interviewed. Bruce, Hogan, Cena. Only one who isn’t really a Vince yes man is Austin

‘Everything you did turned gold’

Well that purchase of WCW and the invasion angle eh…

Absolutely this. Won’t be a truly unbiased account of his life. There’s probably a whole legal team editing the documentary, identifying what they can and can’t say.

Should be a great watch neverthless.

I don’t think he remained involved after the allegations came out, which may put a different spin on it. I doubt Netflix are eager to publish a fluffy documentary about someone facing the potential charges that Vince is.

I’ve watched a fair few youtube docs about Hulk Hogan being a terrible piece of shit, so at least that content is very much out there if this does turn out to be a puff piece.

I think it’s probably also worth giving them some benefit of the doubt in that if you are going to make a documentary which covers Vince’s career it would be pretty incomplete without contributions from the guys in the trailer, even if they are likely to be favourable to him.

Definitely!
Was a great show, PAC/Ospreay was incredible.

Swerve/Hangman didn’t quite hit the heights of the Texas deathmatch for me, but it was damn vicious and brutal.

Just watched the opening match. Wasn’t bad.

Piledrivers have made me wince ever since 1997.

MJF is taking time off? Didn’t he just return this summer?

Just watching some Stevie Richards videos on YouTube on his channel. He has such a mind for the business. So glad I stumbled on this channel

I saw something that suggested it was because he’s doing a film of some sort :thinking:

Swerve is too apparently, but that makes sense seeing as though Hangman literally murdered him lol

I agree @Josh ! Love some of his vids

Just seen the Adam Page chair shot to the head of Swerve. How the fuck can you sit there and enjoy watching unprotected chair shots to the head that vicious knowing what that shit did to Chris Benoit? Boggles my mind how backwards AEW is.

It was reminiscent of Austin on McMahon many years ago.

I can see why the camera spanned out and didn’t show the actual chair shot. There just doesn’t seem to be a place for these sorts of bloody (in both senses of the word) matches any more.

On the whole @Annie85x I thought it was a good event. Arguably, better than All In.

The difference is, Austin and McMahon took place before Benoit decided to murder his wife and child due to CTE. There’s a reason why no one did it in the business until dumb fuck Tony Khan okayed it.

Like Punk said, dumb internet shit

It was very very clearly a gimmicked chair, you see Hangman previously in the match look at it and inspect it (there’s a green sticker at the bottom of the leg too) but I do agree that gimmicked or not there isn’t a place for that anymore in wrestling.

I know being gimmicked doesn’t change the fact that it shouldn’t be a thing anymore and I’m not remotely condoning it, but it’s definitely not the same as those chair shots back in the day.

I think the one on Jack Perry the other month looked worse than that one, that was also gimmicked but just looked way way worse.

Gimmicked or not. It’s still steel hitting another persons head without them even putting their hands up. It’s stupid. TK really needs to pull his wrestlers aside and tell them this stupid outdated shit needs to stop. Look after your employees man
