For this episode, I give my thoughts on the Hulk Hogan documentary released on Netflix. I talk about my dislike for documentaries lately. Feel like I didn't learn anything new in this one which is exactly what I expected. Hulk's story has already been well documented and regaled. I talk about the non-stop regaling of WrestleMania 1 and the NWO. I've heard that story a million times already. Also deep dive and break down the portryal of WrestleMania VI match vs. Warrior and WrestleMania IX ending and Bret Hart's commentary.

But touched on some of the best games and finishes from the weekend, standout performances, key moments, noteworthy statistics. Concluded the episode by giving series results from the weekend.
