Synopsis/Details
Tommy is a fantastic actor. He is also a fantastic asshole. After alienating everyone in town with his bad attitude, the only “audition” Tommy’s agent can get him is an open call for charismatic wrestling characters. Within minutes of the tryout, Tommy turns the entire gym against him. Vick, the wrestling organization’s CEO, sees Tommy’s potential as the greatest heel of all time. The massive, man-of-few-words Silencer, and the beautiful, no-nonsense Jordan Jackson literally beat their heads against the mat trying to teach Tommy that sometimes you must take a hit in order to protect your teammates from taking an even bigger hit.
