Mace is a professional wrestler, a really good professional wrestler
He's not the champion though - that's the impossibly charismatic Chad Deity
When Mace discovers a young Indian-American Brooklyn kid whose charisma rivals that of the champ, Mace decides to get him a job in the company
Only problem is, the boss has a very specific plan for the duo - put them onscreen as terrorists
A serious minded comedy about wrestling, geopolitics, and raisin' bread
" ... the delicious crackle and pop of a galloping, honest-to-God, all-American satire" ~ The New York Times
