![]() Hart’s death was quite possibly the biggest mainstream news story in the entire history of the wrestling business. But it goes deeper than that, particularly with episodes like tonight’s season finale, which covers the 1999 death of Owen Hart in a stunt-rigging accident. The life and death of “Gorgeous” Gino Hernandez, for example, would be new to those unfamiliar with ‘80s Texas wrestling, and the implosion of Herb Abrams and his UWF promotion was mostly lore to a specific subset of wrestling fans who tried to watch everything from the genre in the early ‘90s. Perhaps the biggest byproduct of the success of Dark Side of the Ring, VICE TV’s pro wrestling-themed documentary series, is the degree of sunshine it has brought to the subject matter covered in a given episode.
