9. Just Another Romantic Wrestling Comedy (2007)

Nerdy Robert is pining for the unrequited love of his life, Sandy, and fairly early on discovers that her father, a former professional wrestler, will only let her become involved with a pro wrestler. Robert determines to become a professional wrestling legend. Co-starring Chyna (billed as Joanie Laurer) and Debra Marshall (ex-WWF/E valet and €˜Stone Cold€™ Steve Austin€™s ex-wife), as well as indie wrestlers Slyck Wagner Brown and April Hunter, the big guest role goes to Don €˜The Predator€™ Frye, playing Sandy€™s narrow-minded father. It€™s a ridiculous, poorly shot and edited film, like a low budget eighties teen flick with tacked on wrestling, but the love story at the heart of it is kind of sweet.At one point a sequel was planned, but inexplicably, audiences didn€™t set the streets on fire legging it to see this headless turkey. Writer/director Kim Sky stuck to supernatural flicks for the next two films, one of which €“ 2010€™s Morning Star €“ features ex-WWE wrestler Gene €˜Snitsky€™ Snisky as the Devil, a role previously essayed by lesser actors like Robert De Niro and Al Pacino.
