*This listing is for the standard edition version and does NOT come with a limited edition slipcase!* “Wrestling is such a brutal business, it doesn’t surprise people that it attracts sociopaths, fame whores, coke whores, and adrenaline junkies. But why did it attract an artist?” asks Billy Corgan, frontman of The Smashing Pumpkins and wrestling promoter.

Interviews with legends like Chris Jericho, Tommy Dreamer, The Sandman, DDP, and Rob Van Dam provide an unfiltered window into the era. Though hard-hitting, the documentary also captures moments of tenderness, pride, and nostalgia as Raven and his peers look back on what they built, despite the wreckage it left behind. NEVERMORE: THE RAVEN EFFECT celebrates Raven’s legacy and the transformation of wrestling...
