About This Movie

NWA Lords of The Ring is a fascinating snapshot of wrestling's golden age, where the atmosphere inside the Orange Bowl is electric, every seat filled with anticipation. The pacing is a whirlwind, with matches interspersed with promos that add layers to the rivalries, especially the main event featuring Ric Flair and the American Dream. The stakes feel real, and that storyline of a $15,000 ring only heightens the drama. While the direction is not credited, the raw energy of the matches and the crowd reactions create an immersive experience. Plus, the practical effects of wrestling moves, combined with the larger-than-life personas, make this a memorable watch in the realm of pro wrestling films.

Lords of The Ring is a rare gem, especially for collectors focused on wrestling history. The film has seen limited releases, making original tapes quite scarce. Given its pivotal role in the evolution of wrestling presentation, interest remains strong among fans and collectors alike, often seeking out both VHS and DVD formats to round out their collections.
