Marty Jannetty has lived one wild life in the pro wrestling world, and that included a lot of time on Facebook letting everyone in on his deepest thoughts. He also copped to a murder when he was a teenager, so that happened. Then again, he passed that off as a pro wrestling story, but Dark Side of the Ring could be an incredible look into his life.
Click here for a detailed history on Marty Jannetty’s insane social media activity. Needless to say, he had a ton of “romps” that he flexed about on social media.
Steve Fall had an interview with Andrew Gordon Macpherson, the composer of Dark Side of the Ring. According to the composer, Jannetty’s story will be quite an experience for viewers.
“Marty Jannetty is amazing. I’ve only seen a rudimentary version of the Marty Jannetty episode. I haven’t seen it with reenactments. I haven’t seen the final version, but they spend a good deal of time with Marty in the episode and his closest friends and people who have known him for a long time. You get a very intimate portrait of who Marty is then and now and what sort of others think of some of his controversies then and now. It’s going to send some shockwaves through.”
Shawn Michaels might not be too happy with the Marty Jannetty episode, because there could be some seedy stories about the Heartbreak Kid from the old school days. Only time will tell what kind of bombshells are dropped, but that episode certainly has a ton of hype behind it already.
Dark Side of the Ring airs on Vice TV every Tuesday night at 10 pm Eastern. The first episode explored the lives of Chris Candido and Tammy Sytch.
