This is'nt the best Wrestling show i've ever seen , but it definitely is'nt the worst either . It has a few bad matches , but the main event, and a few others , more than make up for it . We see tremendous athleticism in the Taka Mitchinoku V Pantera Match , a first look at Kane in his match against Vader , and mayhem in the survivor series type match . If you're a Wrestling fan , you might consider watching this .

Smackdown! is intended as the follow-up to Monday Night Raw . Smackdown! has more actual Wrestling , and less segments and interviews . This is a better show for fans of old-style WWF , because it resembles the good old days of 'Saturday Night's Main Event' and 'Prime Time Wrestling' when there were less pyrotechnics , and more wrestling . This is a truly excellent show , and better than raw if you're new to pro Wrestling .

As an avid Wrestling fan , before watching this my first thought was that the documentary would be conducted in Keyfabe (The code of silence that Wrestlers abide by) . However , what I found was a true , down to earth of a wrestler's turbulent year under Vince McMahon . This is very candid , and we also meet his family and friends . This film is also a great insight into how the pro wrestling world works , and how it is pre-determined . My cousin used to be very anti-wrestling , he called it 'phoney' and 'fake' . But after making him watch this , he realised that Wrestling needs athleticism , and how much grit and determination the wrestlers give . As Bret Hart said -

'It's a lot more real than people think..........
