Winner - Best Documentary Feature (Burning Hammer Film Festival 2018)
Take a look behind the scenes of independent professional wrestling. Follow the lives of Keith Lee, Sammy Guevara, Terrale Tempo, and many more as they take you on a deep and personal journey.
This movie has done so much for me. Without the help of so many generous people, without their time, energy, financial support, love and care, this would now be real. This film has taken me to London, has opened doors in my field, and has given me a better appreciation of wrestling as a whole. I now give you Wrestling With Independence. Thank you.

*The most heartfelt and genuine documentary on wrestling I have ever seen, in a cooler world this would be on Netflix or Amazon Prime.* Amazing to see so many of these athletes have hit the big time and are now on AEW. In your own way your passion for the business has been a part of their success. You should be proud of yourself Ray.

Thanks man, I really appreciate it. It's not on Netflix or Amazon because distribution is a bitch, and I'd like for people to just have the ability to watch this whenever. Thanks for the kind words.

This was amazing and this really gave me the inspiration that I needed. I’m 16 and I’m gonna be starting training in 6 months and ever since day 1 this has been my dream and it’s good to know that other wrestlers are going through the exact thing I’m going through. Now I’m just gonna work harder for my dream.

Very good! Going to show this to my daughter - she's 8 but wants to a pro-wrestler. She loves it. I think this can be inspiring for her and let her know what its going to take. I support her 100% and will start getting her some training once this stupid virus goes away - starting with Brazilian and working our way up from there. I've been a fan of this sport since I was a kid - I'm 42 now. Respect and love all the talent in and behind the scenes. Good Documentary too.

I saw the Reddit post about this and thought I would give it a try. I was totally impressed by it. While it didn't have longer or more interviews with some of the talent in it (Laredo Kid, SCU, Tessa, etc), it is still an amazing look at the life on the indie circuit and why they do it. I can't recommend it highly enough and will be telling my friends about this gem.

people always state bout growing out from liking pro wrestling . why ? it's theatre , its mini movies , soap Opras, escapism. People don't say they grew out of watching soccer or baseball, or watching ( fake ) movies, or stop reading fake story books ( Harry Potter etc ) or grown adults dressing up as there favourite ( fake ) superheros at events . so why does wrestling get a bad rep

I wonder what Keith Lee’s dad thought when he saw over 15,000 people chanting Keith’s name for two nights in a row while getting worldwide exposure in the farthest reaching promotion in the world. I know he isn’t making as much as he would in the NFL, but that may have never happened anyway, and most football players aren’t highly cheered for specifically.
