Just watched this film on DVD and I have to say I was very impressed. I didn't expect it to be any good (just judging a book by it's cover as I so often do), but to be honest it entertained me more than almost any PPV I've seen in the last year. The film is a mockumentary (insert generic Spinal Tap comparison here) that follows a struggling indie wrestling promotion as it finds out it's going out of business. The colorful cast of characters decide to do their best to go out with a bang. Film contains a vocabulary lesson and some other behind the scenes secrets that give some insider views into the industry, but the bulk of the story comes from the characters' interaction with each other. They are all relatively unremarkable (and most poorly acted) but end up growing on you by the end. I probably would have given it an 8 or 9 if the acting was better. But lets face it, if you've ever watched a WWE or TNA show you have seen far worse. Recommended to wrestling fans with a sense of humor.

The TCICWF is shutting down forever, and these colorful, eccentric, clueless, indie wrestlers have one last chance to show the world that they belong in the big leagues.
