About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want a candid, sometimes intense look at what happens beyond the ring and why it matters, similar to Wrestlers or WWE: Unreal; Not for you if you prefer lighter sports stories.

Pros: fascinating behind-the-scenes stories; insightful look at wrestling; emotional, personal moments | Cons: heavy subject matter; may feel intense; not for casual viewers
