| #1 Posted on 7.10.04 1913.15 Reposted on: 7.10.11 1913.56 | Well it's not a movie, and its not even Tough Enough, but something I came across earlier today in the TV Guide sounds like it could rank right up there with all the backyard wrestling specials.
Here's the description (It's on Discovery - Sunday night at 7:00 (Central))
"What if living your biggest dream meant facing your worst nightmare? Get a no holds barred looked at what happens when one man has 3 days and $3,000 to make his pro wrestling dream come true."
and then from the blurb from the actual guide section:
"A San Antonio skycap attempts to follow in the footsteps of his pro-wrestling heroes despite his relative diminutive stature and weight"
I'm not sure why he'd need $3,000 if he's going to try to be a wrestler. Unless they really think that he's going to find someone to train him correctly for $3,000 and in 3 days.
So hopefully, he's trying to be a promoter and not an actual wrestler, because otherwise this is going to be ugly. | Promote this thread! |  | Cerebus

They did this before with a Boston lawyer. I'm guessing it's done through UPW judging by the price.
