10 Best Wrestling Documentaries Ever

10. The Rise And Fall Of WCW

In 2004, a few short years removed from its conclusion, WWE brought out a DVD of which the focus was the Monday Night Wars. It sounded like a must buy on paper, but it was greeted instead by accusations of white-washing (and they weren't exactly without merit).

The company tried to make right those wrongs half a decade later with the release of The Rise and Fall of WCW (which borrows its title from the more successful ECW edition a few years earlier). And while it is not exactly flawless - condensing a couple decades of wrestling history into two hours was never going to be easy (or, frankly, possible) - it was a decent effort all the same.

It's honest, at least, charting both the relatively long period during which Eric Bischoff's product was, in many ways, superior to the one being served up by Vince McMahon, and - naturally - the desperately bad mismanagement and financial imprudence that saw it drop off the face of the wrestling world in 2001.

Don't make the mistake of thinking it's a complete and comprehensive history of WCW (even though that's exactly what it claims to be) and you will probably enjoy it.
