Don't buy it.....yet. Why its free right now on Youtube. Just type in the title and pulls it right up no problems. I say yet because you know how movies will be on one day unavailable the next. I'll still buy it when I need too, my kids love the spectacle known as the WWE so this documentary is a given. Plus it shows that despite being bitter rivals and enemies, they know its an act and are the best of friends outside the "squared circle". Kind of a good life lesson on sports. Doesn't matter if you win or lose its how you play the game. Its all about respect, remember that PARENTS!!!!

This is a true inside look at the way wrestling and wrestler's survived back in the day. Back before Plane's and Glitter were the normal. Definitely a can't miss.

Great story... sad & dark moments just to show non believers that wrestling is not fake nor is it just a job, but a way of life.
