The Wrestler is the only one worth watching. It's a very, very dark story of the life as a wrestler. Watch it.
Ready to Rumble was fun 20 years ago, it'll probably just come off as lame now though. There's a ton of WCW stars in it.
And a bit of a stretch, but Barton Fink involves a writer doing a story on old time wrestling. And it is so amazing, I need to invent a new word for it. Long live Charlie Meadows.

Ive always like the wrestling part in Man on the Moon. It was really cool having Jerry Lawler play himself in that one.

Ready 2 Rumble cracks me up and is a very fun movie regardless of what any critics say about it.

No Holds Barred.
The greatest movie ever.
It has everything you could ever want in a movie.

I've been wanting to rewatch this for years, I remember loving it It has but it came out a long time ago. in like 2002 i think. It hard to even find a used copy for a decent price. I think you can find it online. Maby on youtube chopped up in like 10 different parts. |

Body Slam - Not my favorite but definitely a wrestling heavy movie and it has lots of great Piper and Captain Lou moments. I went back and watched this when Piper passed away and it made me chuckle. Super cheesy early 80s feel to it. Tanya Roberts is hot in it.
Ready to Rumble - My favorite wrestling movie of all time. Seriously, I love it.
The Wrestler - In terms of critical acclaim, it is the best wrestling movie of all time. However, it doesn't have a ton of replay value imo because it paints the ugly picture of pro wrestling. Plus, if you've seen the Jake Roberts DVD then you've seen The Wrestler. Every wrestling fan should see it, but it's not how I like to think of wrestling, personally.
No Holds Barred - My second favorite wrestling movie ever. Seriously, nothing is more brilliantly 80's than this film. So cliche in every single way. Hulk is hilarious, the action is over the top, the women are hot, and the final act is phenomenal and delivers on everything you'd want to see.

There are actually two movies called The Wrestler. The one with Mickey Rourke that is really good. And a GOD AWFUL HORRIBLE PIECE OF CRAP one with Verne Gagne and Ed Asner that was made back in the 70s.
Ready to Rumble and No Holds Barred are my favorites though. They're so terrible but in a good way.

I loved Body Slam. I know it's a cheesy 80s movie, but I'd definitely put it in my top 3 favorite wrestling movies of all time.

Seth Rollins did a wrestling fetish movie. Also Christopher Daniels, Jimmy Jacobs, Kazarian, Matt Sydal, and Davey Richards. It's a who's who erotically wrestling. |
