Oh man this movie is a complete sack of shyt. Saw just to see how bad it is:
The acting is horrible, the lack of character development. I don't care about john moxley bad acting ass, I don't care about MMA guy, cause they barely develop their personal life stories. You know... Something Rocky or the Wrestler did perfectly to make us care about the main character.
They just do like a 10 min long fight promo cuts thinking it's authentic when it's not. Then showing scenes of mma guy training hard after he lost the fight, which I don't care other than I know he's a 5 time champion with bunch of deals he lost after the fight, oh and a generic looking boring wife (zero acting skills) with a kid. The never back down 3 is probably even a more superior film, let alone the all time great fighter films.
After like 50 minutes of the actual film they sort of try to make us feel pity for the mma guy making him quit career like a bytch and coming back to fight cause he had a talk with his wife and a few fans took a picture with him in streets, and we're supposed to root for this guy? Moxley is barely showed in betwen two fights, are we even supposed to care he exists? How do you not develop his character at all? He cuts the same promo before both matches. He looks like a homeless man who was offered to do the movie. This is so bad it made me angry
It's one of those films where you don't give a flying fukk about anyone in it. The AEW really rivaled WWE shytty films in here. It's the marine levels of bad.
