Okay, wrestling fans, let's talk Dark Side of the Ring Season 3. It was a wild ride, right? Some episodes had us hooked. Others? Well, let's just say my pizza got more attention.
Brian Pillman: Part 1 & 2
Pillman. Dude was a loose cannon. And this two-parter? It was definitely… something.
Honestly, it felt a little *too* long. I mean, we get it. He was complicated. But did we need TWO episodes to understand that? Maybe that’s just me.
Nick Gage
Okay, I’ll admit it. I'm not the biggest Nick Gage fan. Deathmatch wrestling? Not my cup of tea.
This episode was brutal. Visually and emotionally. I needed a palate cleanser after this one. Maybe a cute puppy video?
Collision in Korea
This episode was fascinating! Taking us behind the scenes of Collision in Korea. Seeing wrestling used as a tool for diplomacy? Pretty cool stuff.
But here's my hot take: it felt a bit disconnected from the usual Dark Side vibe. More history lesson, less… dark side. Still interesting, though.
The Plane Ride From Hell
Oh boy, the *Plane Ride From Hell*. This one had everyone talking. And not necessarily in a good way.
Was it shocking? Absolutely. Was it… enjoyable? Debatable. It kind of felt like rubbernecking at a car crash, if you ask me.
Ultimo Dragon
Ultimo Dragon! What a legend. This episode was a refreshing change of pace.
A look at the life and carrer of Ultimo Dragon, the episode focuses on the multiple championships and the unfulfilled potential of one of the greatest luchadores of all time. And his ninja training!? So awesome!
Chris Kanyon
This episode about Chris Kanyon hit hard. It was heartbreaking to watch his struggles.
Mental health is no joke. And this episode really highlighted that. It’s a must-watch, even if it's tough.
The Steroid Trials
The steroid trials episode was a deep dive into a controversial era. It touched upon Vince McMahon and the entire company’s involvement.
It was definitely informative, but a little dry at times, am I right? I could have used a little more… drama.
Fallen Fan
Okay, “Fallen Fan” was messed up. Stalking? Obsession? Yikes.
I felt bad for everyone involved. But honestly, it made me a little uncomfortable. The line between fan and… something else… is blurry.
The Double Life of Chris Candido
Chris Candido. Talented but troubled. This episode explored his struggles with addiction and relationships.
Another heartbreaker. So much potential gone too soon. It was a reminder that these wrestlers are real people with real problems.
Grizzly Smith
The *Grizzly Smith* episode. Dark. Twisted. Disturbing.
This one was hard to stomach. Some things are better left unsaid, perhaps? I'm not sure I needed to know all of that. This one left a really bad taste in my mouth.
So, there you have it. My super-official, totally unbiased (okay, maybe a little biased) take on Dark Side of the Ring Season 3. Agree? Disagree? Let me know!
