Abraham's wrestling show already did an episode on deathmatches in which he interviewed Onita - and spent insane money buying one of his barbed wire baseball bats at a memorabilia store - and he's written about FMW for the Vice website before. So I suspect they would be doing that episode either directly because of him, or because he's built up a network of contacts they can use.

gribbo2001 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 On 1/25/2021 at 2:29 PM, Chili said: The Kanyon/Boy George thing is absolutely something done to rib a gay bloke in a big absolutely not gay at all wrestling business. It just smacks of it and very something you'd get in early 2003. Look how a gay wedding and lesbians were portrayed a season prior in the autumn. It achieved nothing and was way too on the nose. I think Kanyon was an unfortunate mix in a guy who absolutely loved, LOVED wrestling but would have been way happier and mentally balanced and maybe able to deal with what was really a big complex issue for his life has he not been in a locker room with some of the lot walking around backstage in 2003 WWE. Shame he was so talented to be honest. I don't think he'd have actually been happier out of wrestling though. He was too good to be told not and seemed so dedicated to it. He'd have probably been alive had he'd got into it a lot later maybe. I dunno I've just always felt terrible about how it ended up for Kanyon. EDIT: Didn't see Pat who wrote it better and more clearly. Read that bit. Was listening to the Jericho Podcast with Helms & DDP recently and apparently Kanyon was a very well paid physical therapist (earning six figures a year in the mid 90s for it) but loved wrestling that much that he gave it up to chase the dream which makes it even worse in some ways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members wandshogun09 Posted February 2, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted February 2, 2021 Has there been any word on when the new series actually starts? I read that it’ll be 14 episodes so still a few to be revealed yet right? What have they confirmed so far? Pillman, FMW, Kanyon, Collision In Korea, XPW, Grizzly Smith family, Bruiser Bedlam, Nick Gage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was amazed when Damian said how chuffed he was to be in a building where Big Daddy wrestled. I didn't know he was that big into wrestling.

TomJones233 Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 I hope the Kanyon doc rips Undertaker a new arsehole. The Jericho podcast where they talk about how much Undertaker loved Kanyon was disgusting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavigatorFan Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 They have announced 2 new episodes - Dynamite Kid and Collision in Korea  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The King Of Swing Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Unless we get some new dirt I'm not particularly interested in Collision in Korea tbh. Maybe they'll go into Inoki's political career more which could be interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â I hope they are fair and balanced , which i think they will be. It seems he was equally as bad a person as he was great a wrestler .

Keith Houchen Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 They aren’t equal. He was by far a shitter person than he was a great wrestler. Fair and balanced shouldn’t gloss over how much of a reprehensible cunt he was. I’m glad he died pissing and shitting himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was he a good worker - Yes Was he a horrible person - Yes If the documentary is all about how good a worker he was , then it wont be balanced. If the documentary is all about how bad a person is then it also wont be balanced .  Edited February 27, 2021 by RancidPunx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one am amazed that The Dark Side Of The Ring might want to focus on the negatives, and not that he had a good match against Tiger Mask.
