If you listen to the Jericho pod with Eisener and the other guy they have ideas. The one I remember that could be excellent is Collision In Korea.

The best episodes have been the lightest ones because all we want is tales of the old carny bullshit days with as little tragedy as possible.

Art Barr The Steroid Trial Bill Watts Chyna Buck Zumhofe Ringboy Scandal Warrior Heroes of Wrestling PPV Dynamite Kid Kanyon Axl Rotten Brian Lawler Bill Demott There’s a lot of poo poo to delve into. Not as much Benoit/Owen level stuff but still a lot of interesting ground

Yeah you have to remember that they need to get compelling interviews for these things and it's become clear that no one is particularly interested in talking about the ring boy stuff, for various reasons.

I mean I think they could do it - but I also wonder with Jericho narrating if they would just heavily gloss over Vince and his knowledge of it.

Does WWE still edit Mel Phillips out of old footage, or was that just done on DVD's?

Dynamite Kid would be a really good one, especially since it's tangential to Benoit. MorrisBae posted:Does WWE still edit Mel Phillips out of old footage, or was that just done on DVD's? On the network they use the VHS/DVD versions for most stuff as the base before further edits so I wouldn't be surprised if he was still edited out.

sportsgenius86 posted:Art Barr They're going to want to save some stuff so each season has it's big ones and filler or lighter episodes. I'd say steroid trial and ultimate warrior would be perfect bookends for season 3. I also think Chyna would be a good premier episode. Collision in Korea is a perfect lighter episode, it's incredibly interesting and not about watching someone destroying themselves with drug addiction or murder. Rick Rude would be a good one. I think a two parter about how vince killed the NWA and how the NWA hosed up during the 80's trying to take on vince would be pretty good.

KungFu Grip posted:They had enough suggestions on twitter when they asked about a 2nd season they probably have enough material or cases to look at for a season 3 already. A lot of people suggested the ring boy scandal for example so maybe they thought with two big heavy hitters they had enough for this season All they really have to do is just follow the NY64 twitter for ideas for like the next decade or so.

sportsgenius86 posted:Art Barr I mentioned it before in an older post, but I think the WCW discrimination lawsuit and subsequent Bash at the Beach 2000 fiasco involving Hulk Hogan and Jeff Jarrett would be a good subject, though if they're going to include BatB they may have to make it a two part episode because that's way too much bullshit for one 45 minute episode.

They didn't show the time Hawk took both a chokeslam and a frog splash from Kane and RVD.

I liked the Road Warriors episode. Paul Ellering sounds like he was really close with Hawk and Animal. Dude became a dog sledder later and raced in the Iditarod.

Better Than You posted:Wasn't that documentary made and released before he reached out to DDP for help? Or am I thinking about another documentary... I believe you’re right; Hall was a HUGE mess at the time, and I remember that 30 for 30 highlighting both him “getting better” (before relapsing again and eventually going to DDP’s), as well as his son’s “up-and-coming” career (which, if you’ve followed Cody Hall’s recent few years of bridge-burning, is not accurate any longer).

Don't know what you could possibly mean, he was last seen working for one of the biggest promotions in Japan, DDT, before the lockdown!
