Best Wrestling Movies: Requiem For a Heavyweight

This stylized, black and white movie dives into the seedy underworld of professional wrestling back when it first started to make the rounds. The title character is a former boxing champion who is looking to make his way back into the ring but simply is not able to cut it as a boxer any longer, due to his lack of speed. This is a fantastic movie that really looks at a figure who is passed their prime but still has a passion for the sport. It is the oldest movie on the list, yet it is still one of the very best wrestling movies to ever hit the cinema and well worth you checking out.
