    I thought the New Jack, Bruiser Brody and Dynamite Kid ones were good too but some - Johnny K9, Gino Hernandez, Dino Bravo - were IMO really only of interest to hardcore fans.

    The Bruiser Brody one is the episode I had in mind with the “barely scratching the surface” comment. It was basically a recap of everything we already knew.

    The Dynamite Kid one was another good one. So were the ones on Onita/FMW and Nick Gage.

    There was also a serious issue with factual accuracy. Plane Ride From Hell and some of the stuff with Randy Savage being the most glaring examples.

    Jim Ross said he wasnt going to appear on their docs anymore due to the way some of his comments we edited. I wonder if he wasnt the only one

    I think there’s diminishing returns as far as remaining topics to cover too. Darkside was good, at times, and rarely great. Glad I saw most of em but don’t think I’ll miss it

    Not a shock, but Roderick Strong apparently asked for his release, considering he's been relegated to being nothing much more than a manager for the Diamond Mine. And considering his three buddies AND his wife are all on the AEW payroll...

    Don't know what I should be most amazed by: this guy waiting for a second shot, that he once teamed with Lars Sullivan as enhancement talents, or that Max Caster was one of Bobby Lashley's "sisters."

    Agreed. It was a good show; not a great show.

    For me, the best moment was when Benoit’s son reunited with Nancy’s sister for the first time since the murder-suicide.

    They're really milking this for all it's worth. I wonder if there will be an end game to all of this.

    Renee's podcast was a great one on William Morrissey/Big Cass (another DDP reclamation success story), and they alluded to this old NXT segment, which I never knew. This was amazing.

    Thats so good. Makes me wonder if he has a shoot brother and really went to Unforgiven or if he made it all up…..if he did, outstanding

    NXT with kind of a cheeky reference to Lumis and Persia being released. Probably the best they could've done since they were all part of an active storyline.

    That was great. You can even see Renee smiling in the background when Cass was singing.
