Ready To Rumble: 15 Year Anniversary
from New Blood Rising Podcast · host William Renken
It has been 15 years since Ready To Rumble debuted (and exited…very quickly) from theatres in the year 2000. For most of us at the time, it was great just to have a wrestling movie that wasn’t the dark and serious Beyond The Mat. That being said, it was one more turn in a wave of massive failures for WCW, least of which gave birth to one of its more infamous and vilified World Champions. And yet with all of the absurdity of Ready To Rumble, we talk about how its changed for us over the years with our different viewings. Maybe, just maybe, in the spirit of the New Blood Rising Podcast, we can have something positive to talk about in all of this.
