The documentary acts as a celebration of wrestling , and is not intended to be a negative documentary - a contrast to a growing trend of smaller , “ underground ” wrestling products . When interviewed for FSM magazine , director David Sinnott stated , “ I don ’ t intend this film to be negative . Its too easy to sell people bad news . ” To date , the documentary also marks the first third party video interview from Rob Van Dam since leaving World Wrestling Entertainment , and the first Western interview filmed of Keiji Mutoh since becoming president of All Japan Pro Wrestling .
