I remember just being in shock from it, trying to convince myself it was "a work bro".

[@AGH69]

and the frustration at the time when they had Owen doing the Blue Blazer stuff.. There were some funny moments because it's Owen, but I viewed him as midcard+, while the BB felt like a lowcard jobber. Just wasting his talent and the whole repelling thing was played out after Sting had been doing it through 97 when building for a big money match. Wishing they'd just drop that stuff already, then hearing on the news that he'd fallen to his death. Couldn't believe it until I saw Raw and even then it was surreal.

[@tobiasfarragut292]

[@ChrisJericho22]

Yep for non-wrestling fans they will love it but for wrestling fans they were disappointed since they already know almost all the info about Vince and wanted to know more which Netflix didn't provide.

As for Vince claiming fans did not or could not see Owen's fall. His death/accident was the 4th story Philadelphia news. They even picked up at least 3-4 fans talking about it based on local news reports. "we thought it was part of the show until we saw the ringside staff jump in to help him"

[@Rjensen2]

Well, there's "3-4" out of the 15k that were there.

[@chadhartsees]

One thing about the Attitude Era and money - the 80s boom birthed a lot of kid wrestling fans who might have been able to talk mom and dad into going to a show once or twice or buy a licensed WWF toy at ToysRUs. Maybe if they were lucky they could get a shirt from the catalog. But in the Attitude Era these kids had part time jobs and could afford to go to shows, could buy a 316 shirt at every store in the world, and would drive to see RAW and try to get on TV.

[@TRivera13]

Exactly. That's why it's never been far fetched to me that Steve Austin sold more merch than any one before him. Because at that time the merch was available everywhere and there was more of it. But also key were the designs of the clothing. A shirt that says Austin 3:16 with a smoking skull on the back is a lot cooler than a yellow shirt with Scott Hall's face almost covering the whole front.

[@WhereverUAre972]

Personally, I found the doc to be VERY underwhelming. A lot of the info was already known to many. All this did for me was remind me that Vince McMahon was a lot like TV Preacher Jimmy Swaggart. McMahon and Swaggart had crappy upbringings, they got into their family businesses in order to gain things they didn't have in childhood (power and wealth), and they both got caught with their pants down. Jimmy Swaggart survived his sex scandals (he's still preaching and making money off the poor and desperate!). McMahon is not going to survive this.

According to Bonnie, she came in to help WWF's product in terms of storytelling. She knew nothing about wrestling but enjoyed working with Vince and learning the business. Vince's relationship with Bonnie kept WWF alive as he managed to use her as a liaison between himself and the network.

The way Jim Neidhart was released and shipped off to WCW was hilarious. DX convinced him to join their group, as a way to step out from Bret's shadow. Michaels and Hunter turned on Anvil, then spray painted him WCW. What a parting gift.

The "Attitude Era Speech" was shots fired at WCW. It was necessary.

[@Spongemonkey26]

Being a part of the target demo fanbase of the attitude era, I can tell you DX and the suck-it gesture was in fact a HUGE part of why the product was so captivating in the late 90s for us fans. Not sure why they're hating on it here.

[@kylewicks6133]

They're hating because they are grumpy old men and they think it's cool to hate on the 1 time wrestling was actually cool

Jeff Jarrett praying for Owen and then immediately talking about Debra's tits was ridiculous.

[@Messwithmitchie]

They really needed to stop the show (for many reasons) but like cmon how can you cut a goofy promo about tits after a man fell to his death in the ring and then the painful irony of the undertaker coming out immediately after, the show shouldn’t always go on

Austin vs McMahon is an endless feud. That's the beauty of it. It's timeless. Adults will always wanna harass and beat the hell out of their bosses. It resonates with people worldwide. It helps that Austin and Vince portrayed their characters. Because with anyone else it may have fizzled out. It's the Tom and Jerry of wrestling. Cat vs Mouse. It can never be duplicated

I think a few people in Vince and Shawn's ear would've suggested it at different times. I have no doubt that Triple H was one of them. When it actually happened, anyone that said it probably thinks it was their idea, when it was more of a group effort.

15:47 sorry guys but the 9yr old in me has to disagree, me and my older bro were laughing our asses off when Shawn was jumping up and down in Jim Ross' face with the gauze in his pants. I'm from the UK and we actually saw that promo completely unedited, unlike in the US. The full unedited version has never been shown again anywhere. Also, I disagree with you Brian that DX wasn't entertaining before Shawn left. The original DX was the best version of DX and late '97 heel Shawn was the best version of Shawn there ever was. Only his Montreal promo in 2005 came close. Like Shawn once told his lil buddy X-Pac, "I was DX before DX was 'cool'"

Jim and Briian mentioned in these clips that they didn't speak much on his personal life, Why his mom lived in a trailer park, why didn't Sr. see him until he was 12, what his friends thought of hm, etc. not necessarily his "dirty stories", stories about the man, which for a documentary about him I think is lacking.
