Bubba debuted during JC's feud with Dusty, Magnum and Baby Doll, when the James Boys tried to drag JC from the back of a pick up. He got the noose off right before Doll floored the gas on the pick up.

Yeah, he told that story in the Tales from the Territories episode they aired about Mid-Atlantic/Crockett. Which makes it double funny, and kind of "well, he has a point" for him to say hanging people doesn't belong in wrestling, not only did he already bring this up in a Vice interview but he literally was almost decapitated doing a spot with a noose...

Trying to figure out the noose that Cornette is talking about in the trailer and since Bossman is in this season I assume he talking about that WM HITC  match against Taker

the angle after his Hell in a Cell with Taker at Wrestlemania

I'm curious how much meat on the bone there is for the Renegade one. Was brought in as an UW knock off, quickly ended up on the C-shows and took his own life.

He was one of those guys who got plucked off the indies and just wasn't ready. Based on some of the Observers I read pre Renegade when he was Rio, Lord of the Jungle, it seemed like whoever was behind him (maybe one of the guys who use to promote him in the indies and/or broke him into the business) probably sold WCW a bill of goods. It's basically the same thing as a Rick Bogner. Both of them had worked in Japan and had decent looks if you never saw their actual ring work. Then when they brought him in under the belief of "I mean how hard could it be to imitate or copy _______", they fucked around and found out. Just because you worked in Japan doesn't mean you're good.

That push lasted a few months though, and he got to go over guys he should have never went over. Then, they proceeded to bury the fuck out of him. It's weird cause you can blame him a little for being the shits in the ring but he should have never been hired in the first place. This is the same company that about a year later would hire Loch Ness. And even before that, they hired Ron Reis whose only claim to fame was just being Big John Studd's protege right before BJS passed. People talk about WCW hiring Hogan's friends but WCW had some strange hiring practices for in ring talent overall.

He was basically a low level jobber for the next 3 years before they released him. Maybe they plan to elaborate on his struggles coping with that along with his eventual release.

Some of these feel like a bit of a stretch. What’s dark about Joe vs. Necro? It’s just awesome.

as the seasons go on it definitely feels like they’re stretching for controversial content that has to be embellished. They should really do more stuff on Japanese contents, Misawa’s death should have been an episode by now. Kensuke Sasaki killing a rookie is another one.

They might hook in other failures like Tom Magee, the dude Bret made look like a million bucks for Vince who was just so awful, because they added in Shockmaster to the Tenta episode for example. Or it could consider other wrestling suicides.

The Missy Hyatt one could be real interesting. IIRC, she wasn't a part of the Gilbert episode at all (Madusa was the exgf that filled the role of background info).

I'd like one on Madusa. Always liked her.

She’s been promoting it on her socials, so it’s not like she didn’t cooperate, even if family politics kept her out of the Eddie episode.

I meant it more like, Missy probably knows where some bodies are buried, and she may drop a few spicy nuggets, even if it is gossipy in nature.

I'm not sure why I didn't remember it, maybe I just didn't even watch it because I didn't think I could get through it, but the Eddie Graham and family Dark Side was on last night and man that has to be one of the roughest ones. You think "well, it's not quite Von Erichs bad" and then they drop the hammer with saying it was actually five generations that committed suicide. It also really made me think about Kevin Sullivan and Nancy and you-know-who and how Kevin had kind of been toughened up for something like that to happen -- and also, what Kevin was really like as a person behind the scenes with all we know about him getting loaded on GHB and weird bondage stuff and whatever else. 

And just because I have to say it, the granddaughter is really cute. Love her nose. She's gotta be my ageoh yeah I better just stop there... (It was also enlightening to find out that the semi-colon she had tattooed is some kind of suicide prevention symbol now, which I wasn't aware of.)

I'll never forget or forgive what happened to Owen, the fall and carrying on the show like nothing had happened. Fuck Vince McMahon. RIP Owen Hart.
