I could not believe how bad this movie was. This film is an insult to wrestling fans everywhere. Anyone who knows wrestling knows it is a show, that it is not a "real sport". However, the people who made this movie apparently don't think that, or at least think that wrestling fans don't feel that way. Are we supposed to buy Oliver Platt as a legitimate wrestler? The guy is old, out of shape, oh but wait nothing in this movie makes sense anyway, so why bother. They have wrestlers fighting in their homes and even attacking trainers. This maybe be stuff that is ok in the context of a wrestling show, but they play it off as if all these guys go around fighting and stuff constantly. With the way the business has changed over the past few years, to the point that everyone knows it's all a show, this movie made no sense. I was completely insulted. But hey, this is just a reason why WCW, the makers of this film, went out of business.
