Welcome to the 1st Rocky Maivia Picture Show of the new year/decade!

On this installment of TRMPS, Nate Milton welcomes “The Professor” Kris Ealy of The Nubian Wrestling Advocates Podcast, and friend of the program/former Stern Show contributor Hanzi into the theater! The guys hit the road to recap The Rock’s “roaring rampage of revenge” in the 2010 action-thriller “Faster”.

Topics discussed include the movie’s religious undertones, the effect of this film on the careers of The Rock and his fellow wrestler-turned-actor Lester Speight (AKA “Rasta The Voodoo Man”), positive portrayals of POC in Hollywood, and possible scenarios for a potential sequel. All that & so much more on this high-octane edition of the program!

The Rocky Maivia Picture Show is a monthly movie review podcast that drops every 3rd Saturday on POST Wrestling!

My favorite moment from this episode (besides the Tessa shade) was workshopping a “Faster” sequel that ties into the “Fast & Furious” universe! :100:

Legit laughed out loud, while in public, at the Tessa Blanchard/Blazing Saddles joke. So, thanks for that…
