Great review capturing the essence of this powerful film! From having worked as a referee on the independent wrestling scene in the '90s and had interactions with many former TV wrestling stars, I remember being amazed at how the film was able to capture the authenticity and feel of the wrestling business in several regards to how things were portrayed. Clearly a lot of research was done on this film. There were many ways to interpret this film as a viewer in my opinion, depending on your own life experiences.
