In the early 1980os, the Von Erich brothers (Zac Efron, Jeremy Allen White, Harris Dickinson and Stanley Simons) rise to fame on the professional wrestling circuit in Texas. As they make history in this intensely competitive world - pushed by their overbearing father (Holt McCallany) - they experience great tragedy and triumph as they make their names.
