A single mother defies the law and the odds to become a women’s wrestling pioneer—and the first millionaire female athlete.
When women’s pro wrestling is outlawed across America, a small-town single mother steps into the ring anyway. Facing danger, prejudice and a world determined to keep her down, she fights her way through a strange, thrilling corner of American entertainment to become a wrestling legend—and the first millionaire female athlete.
Rialto Recommends QUEEN OF THE RING is a rousing underdog story with grit, glamour and a knockout true-life hook. It celebrates a woman who turned spectacle into power, refusing to stay outside the ropes in a world built to exclude her. Big-hearted, bruising and crowd-pleasing, this is sporting history with serious fight.
