the beginning was like wtf, why is it slow, but i thought the pacing was great. i have to honestly admit i was at the edge of my seat, i felt for 'the ram'. I thought BEN button was freaking way slower than this.

I watched this VERY interesting interview on youtube (that i can't find) of old these wrestlers in the 80's known as the Barbarian and Warlord. When they entered the WWF, they were THE TEAM to beat Demolition, the current tag team champions of the time, yet they never won the tag team championship...ever.
Thats why i liked 'The Wrestler'....because it was the same story of people like Rowdy Roddy, and Hogan, Mr. Wonderful, Ric Flair before they became headliners in their industry.

i've watched wrestling back in the days of the big boss man, the ultimate wrestler and there are a lot of politics regarding why and who might win.
i have a whole lot of respect for wrestlers now after seeing this movie.
