While the film never got released, Prinze stated that he showed the movie to producers who praised Wyatt’s acting chops. He said,
“They watched it and they were like, ‘Oh my god, we want to make the role bigger,’ and I was like, ‘Do it, he can handle it. He’s a creative genius in the wrestling world,’ and they agreed.”
