Max is through with the WWE. He used to love wrestling, but now, it's just a job to him. Right before he's about to give in, he sees Chet, his old college rival in the crowd, and he gets his fire back. He tears up the script and pins his opponent, knowing that his manager is about to fire him. Once he gets back to the locker room, his manager humiliates him, and Max hates how much it turned him on.
Three months later, he's itching to get back in the ring, any ring. Once he sees a flyer for an indie wrestling league, he takes it and is ready for his first fight. He soon finds out that this league is way different than the WWE when he gets pantsed in the middle of the ring, and it's only going to get worse. He sees Chet in the crowd, mocking him once again. Does Max have enough strength to go another round in the ring with his college rival? Or is he about to be thrown against the ropes?
