Just watched his new film, “Standout”.  It is excellent! It is a documentary that tells his story very well. I remember the whole arena rooting for him in Philly in 2011. I highly recommend it!

Did you watch it on Angel, or is it being screened or streamed elsewhere. I've never heard of the streaming platform Angel before.

Yes, I watched on Angel. I think they are relatively new… focus is on family friendly stuff so it’s nice if you have kids. Not a ton of content but several good things. They actually have another wrestling movie called “The Last Champion” starring the guy who plays Rip in Yellowstone. It’s pretty good as well but more of a based on a true story thing. Homestead is good too and a few other decent movies. Probably worth it for at least a month or two

Wasn’t based on a true story but had a realistic storyline.

And I forgot to mention that it is guest starring our very own Jason Bryant! (And Dan Gable).

I watched this over the weekend. It's really really good. Very motivational. If there is a young person in your life who is doubting themselves in any sport not thinking they will ever be good or it's too hard.......I don't think I've seen any documentary or movie better than this in that regard.

thanks Bar, now I’ll have to check it out myself!
