The script reportedly admits that it strays from the truth, at one point breaking the fourth wall to admit that it’s as real as pro wrestling. Linda’s personality is also portrayed in a way that Greenfield & Bauer feel the McMahons likely won’t sign off on. The film reportedly portrays Linda as having a similar creative role and approach as Vince, when in actuality she mostly worked in the offices in an executive role. For example, the movie has Linda working in a bar, but in real-life she worked as a paralegal at the time. Some historical facts have been changed for the script, such as his wife Linda’s history. There appears to be some “movie magic” at work in the script as far as accuracy goes. There are reportedly scenes featuring NWA meetings, Ted Turner, the Crocketts, and several other names from the old wrestling territory days. Wrestlers who appear in the script include The Rock, Hulk Hogan, Andre The Giant, The Iron Sheik, Rowdy Roddy Piper, Randy Savage, Gorilla Monsoon, Verne Gange, King Kong Bundy, and more. The script does reportedly touch on Vince working selling plastic/paper cups, which was a job he despised, prior to entering the wrestling business.Ī key part of the script is Vince getting his first job in wrestling from his father, Vince Sr., who is featured several times. This film reportedly won’t cover those younger years. For those who read Vince’s now-rare 1999 Playboy interview, you may remember his stories of growing up without indoor plumbing in North Carolina, almost being beaten to death by his step-father, being exposed to sex very early in life, and later working crushing rocks for 90 hours a week. The movie reportedly opens up with Vince in his 20’s, with his car breaking down while he’s on the way to work for his father.
