Men from around the world share their most personal wrestling memories from childhood to adulthood--a deep and intimate look at the homoerotic nature of wrestling and its cult-like grip on men of all ages.

Guys candidly share their personal wrestling experiences with friends, cousins, uncles, classmates, bullies, and more.
