If you haven't seen
Viceland's new series, Dark Side of the Ring, we can't recommend it enough. (All the episodes are
up for streaming). I had a chance to talk with the creator of the series, Evan Husney, who takes me through his pro wrestling journey and how his fandom of wrestling and heavy metal intersected. We dive deep into the series and the episodes, including Bret Hart's Montreal Screwjob, the death of Bruiser Brody, the Von Erichs and Gino Hernandez. After the interview, Rob gives his thoughts on the WWE Money in the Bank PPV.
Here's an 11-year-old Evan Husney grilling Steve Austin about Bill Goldberg:
