Synopsis
The series explores the downfall of World Championship Wrestling (WCW), interviewing various wrestlers, staff members and exploring the Monday Night War and the eventual demise and purchase by WWE.
The series features interviews with Dwayne Johnson, Bill Goldberg, Eric Bischoff, Bret Hart, Booker T, Konnan amongst others. Chris Jericho declined to appear based on his view that as the narrator for Dark Side of the Ring, he was too closely associated with the producers.

Reception
The series received criticism from a number of former WCW employees, including Tony Schiavone. Episodes 2 and 3 were criticised by Wrestling Observer Newsletter for poor fact-checking, lack of critique and a lack of pushback against narratives pushed by the featured talking heads. In particular, the narrative that WCW was ultimately driven down by Time Warner management rather than poor internal decisions by WCW itself was criticised.
