Synopsis

Aging wrestler Randy "The Ram" Robinson is long past his prime but still ready and rarin' to go on the pro-wrestling circuit. After a particularly brutal beating, however, Randy hangs up his tights, pursues a serious relationship with a long-in-the-tooth stripper, and tries to reconnect with his estranged daughter. But he can't resist the lure of the ring and readies himself for a comeback.

Not abuse per se but Randy's relationship with his daughter is fraught and not healthy.

*SPOILER*
At the end of the movie, a depressed person wrestles a match despite being told by a doctor that there’s a high probability it would kill him due to his heart condition. It’s implied that he dies however it’s left ambiguous whether or not he lives.
