I was glad to see the Iconics return, I've always loved them in their annoying glory.
The other Calgary connection is that Peyton Royce moved from her home in Australia to Calgary to get trained by Lance Storm.
Peyton Royce, Emma, Chelsea Green, Rachel Ellering, Tyler Breeze, Brian Pillman Jr., Oney Lorcan, Taya Valkarie, and others all came through there.
I know the Dungeon was a legendary training ground, but the Storm Academy has produced some of the best women's wrestlers today. In hindsight this should be a another major contribution to the wrestling scene from a local perspective.

That sucks, I always thought she was a solid worker. Not superstar material, but a good hand to build a deep women's division. Achilles injuries are jarring, but hopefully it recovers, and if not, she can work around her limitations with it. She's still young enough to have a career in front of her.
Man that Dark Side of the Ring episode on Owen Hart is extremely sobering and tough to watch. It's definitely worth viewing though, as it's a very detailed coverage of what happened before and after his death, more than anything else publicly documented so far I would say.
Definitely the most anticipated episode of the series for me.
I agree, and the WWE comes across looking rightfully bad in this, and sending DeWitt after Martha was a poor strategy.
However and I know this won't be a popular sentiment, but the way Martha treated the members of the Hart family that tried to help her and support her during the lawsuit wasn't great at all and pretty petty and vindictive.
That whole lawsuit thing when you read from multiple sources was a study in dirty and underhanded strategies on both sides.

I'm watching the Sasha Bayley on NXT takeover match. It was amazing how over both of them were and how good Sasha was as a bad ass heel.
They've both fallen off of the map on the main roster and Bayley's heel turn just hasn't worked out well.
I look at the heel turns of Dakota and even Candace and they're great heel turns especially Kai who I never thought I'd see as a ruthless heel, but she's just made it work incredibly well.

She feels that family and that industry took everything from her.

She disliked the family when she married into it, and she should have been honest about that. Bret went to the wall for her in her lawsuit and when she won she tossed him aside like a well used mop.
While Martha absolutely is in the right on a lot of things, she's treated the people that tried to help her in the Hart family like garbage.

I remember watching that PPV when Owen fell just the most surreal moment. I was like this can't be real life this is so ####ed up.
Seeing how negligent the WWE was is infuriating I can't even imagine how angry Martha must be. And after they are directly responsible for his death they just scrape him off the matt and then continue the show is sickening. If I were Martha I would want to make the WWE pay. WCW did the same thing with Sting all the time and it was never an issue. If they even had an ounce of diligence Owen would still be here.
It's also crazy that Owen and Brett's brothers would betray Owen and steal documents and then give to the WWE during the lawsuit.
It sounds like the Hart family is pretty fractured but I hope their kids aren't effected by this.
