Will this be the highest ranked 30 for 30 ever? I’m not even a wrestling fan and can’t wait. Maybe 2nd to The U?

 

[Mayor of Little London]

I’ve never been more pumped for one and probably won’t be until the one they do on the ole ms debacle.

I thought it was good. Not crazy about the cartoon sketches. Woooo!

I thought it was ok. I laughed at the one where he said he went to see a sports psychologist.

Free digs at the lack of nightlife in Kansas city and Wichita were fun. Buying 137 kamikaze shots and making his own party.

I went and saw the Ted DiBiase movie last night prior to the 30 for 30, and I wasn't expecting for both of them to essentially be the same story, but on opposite sides of the coin.

 

[Dawg1979]

the cartoons were bad. but i loved it.

 

[jethreauxdawg]

I saw the Dibiase movie as well. I liked it, but it was not the best produced movie. Had that low budget feel to it, and was kinda drug out, but overall a good show. I'm looking forward to seeing the Flair 30 for 30

I just got a chance to watch it. For that man to still be alive in his late 60s after the life he has led is a bonafide miracle. His life story chronicles decades of DAILY alcohol abuse, drunk driving, a self-estimated 10K sex partners, and perhaps hundreds of thousands of risky stunts in the ring. Just for good measure he managed to survive a plane crash too! All I have to say is he is either one of the luckiest or the toughest individuals I have ever seen. Perhaps both.

It was sobering. Talking about his son was gut-wrenching.

It was very cool to hear those like Sting talk about Flair's giving personality by helping those young in the business learn the ropes.

Seeing Steamboat, Sting and the others was really cool as well.

Usually, it can be difficult to have sympathy for those that have such a self-abusive lifestyle, but when you balance it with his generous nature it makes it easier for me to have sympathy for the guy.

Oh I agree

The very obvious admiration he got from his colleagues was very cool and the camaraderie they shared. He definitely was very generous to help his fellow wrestlers but then when it came to his family he wasn't so much. I was especially impressed by how much hulk hogan raved about his talent. Dude should be long dead by now though.

It’s a story of how pitiful it is when parents don’t do their job. His success was great entertainment for many of us, but a colossal failure for his first wife and son and the son he later attempted to connect with.

I’m grateful he found a way to connect with his daughter.

Maybe one of the biggest things was his dedication to make the other guy in the ring look great and the respect he got from hulk and others. Fascinating show.

 

[BulldogBlitz]

He survived the plane crash and then lived everyday like there will be no tomorrow.

 

[Dawgpile]

Great to be reminded about Arn and Ole Anderson.

 

[Carbaryl]

Google Nasty Boys beat up Matt Damon and you'll never hear of a better wrestling nightlife story again.

I just wasted about an hour and a half of my life watching Stevie Ray tell stories on Youtube.
