Synopsis

from the associate producer of

THE WRESTLER starring Mickey Rourke

A documentary that reveals THE REAL STORY of the pro wrestling world and the East Coast indie scene.

“Wrestling Then And Now is a MUST for any wrestling fan. It was great to see my old deceased friends, Killer Kowalski and Tiger Khan. It was also great to see Evan Ginsburg, Don Arnold and Jeff Archer!”

Lanny 'The Genius' Poffo. WWF (now WWE) wrestler.

"An Interesting, Entertaining, and Informative Documentary. Evan Ginzburg intelligently shows perspectives from Pro Wrestling's past performers, present performers, future performers as well as their fans. You don't have to be a wrestling fan to enjoy this video, it's that good!"

Ric Lieb, Indy Wrestler & Co-Host for Smart Mark Radio

Wrestling- Then & Now- The Movie is a documentary from underground film director Dwayne Walker and Evan Ginzburg, the Associate Producer of Darren Aronofksy's The Wrestler.

Go on the road with Evan as he talks to the greats of the sport in a film that has something for everyone.

If you're a fan of old school- who better than the late, great Killer Kowalski, Nikolai Volkoff, and Don Dr. Death Arnold to show you the ropes as they talk about not only wrestling but their philosophies on life and the extraordinary experiences theyve had travelling the world?

And if you're a fan of today's wrestling, see a young, outspoken Homicide, hardcore icon Lowlife Louis Ramos and indie stars from coast to coast talk about all aspects of the sport: injuries, the road, the women's division, overzealous fans, the ever-present paying dues, and much, much more.

Plus, one of the casualties of the wrestling game, Tiger Khan, talks about the path he was on- filmed just a few years before his untimely passing at age 33.

It's a film that takes you deep inside the pro wrestling world and particularly the real East Coast indie scene.

And for you fans of women's wrestling, you don't want to miss the clips of ultra stiff body builder, Kasie Kavanaugh (aka Jayne Trcka from Lady Gaga's 'Telephone') in her ring debut with former WWE worker Bryan Walsh.

This is truly a collector's item.
