Maple Leaf Pro Wrestling: Northern Rising

Jake "Stormcrow" McKenzie steps into the ring to a deafening roar in Toronto. His opponent is the legendary "King of the North" Erik Svensson, whose career is nearing its end. Behind the scenes, passions flare: young promoter Sarah fights to save her family's wrestling federation from a corporate takeover, while veteran commentator Bob watches the sport he loved transform into pure spectacle. This 2025 documentary pulls back the curtain on Canada's wrestling industry — where theatricality clashes with real injuries, and dreams of glory often shatter against rigid contracts. It's a story not just about matches under the spotlight, but about the people who risk their bodies weekly for entertainment.
