10 Things We Learned From Dark Side Of The Ring: WWE’s Steroid Trials

1. Vince Looks Like The Biggest Babyface

The main focus of VICE's season-ending episode seems to be how the prosecution and government outright failed to find much of any substance that'd demonise McMahon. Perhaps annoyingly, there's not quite as much dirt on Dr. George Zahorian as some might've been expecting.

Don't let that wreck the narrative for you though - this is worth seeing.

Another dazzling takeaway is that Vince came out looking like the world's ultimate babyface due to how bumbling the feds were towards the end of the trial. They were desperate to nail McMahon, and that blind rage seemed to work against them.

One might suggest checking out Bruce Prichard's in-depth look at the steroid trials on 'Something To Wrestle With' too. Cohost Conrad Thompson did a sterling job of digging his heels in against Bruce's natural loyalty towards McMahon, and that makes the pod a brilliant companion piece to VICE's show.
