8. No Matches Whatsoever (But A Brilliant Array Of Extras)

Eric Bischoff wasn't a professional wrestler, of course. He did have matches during his career, but they were hardly showcase bouts worthy of much attention. Upon seeing them once, there's not much to come back for, unlike his many promos and backstage segments on offer.

Sports Entertainment's Most Controversial Figure is bursting with content, and it's intriguing due to the lack of actual wrestling across the discs. The actual documentary itself is naturally the main hook, but there are also loads of little extra clips that explain things like where Bischoff got his suits from for his first WCW appearances or why he's so into horse-riding.

These add more than some may think to the overall package, as do the various clips of his appearances in the AWA, WCW and WWE. Top moments involving the nWo, his shocking reveal as Raw General Manager and his rivalry-turned-friendship with Steve Austin are all included.

There's also the full 'Legends With JBL' WWE Network interview and a countdown from Eric himself on his most controversial moments. Nobody interested in the man's career can be disappointed with what's offered here.
