" “Fighting with my Family” handler ikke om store dramatiske familieskænderier, men derimod om en familie af wrestlere. Filmen er baseret på dokumentaren: ”The Wrestlers: Fighting with My Family” fra 2012 og handler om den professionelle wrestler Paiges karriere og vej til WWE (World Wrestling Entertainment). Filmen handler dog ikke kun om Paige, men også om hendes utraditionelle familie, og den berører universelle temaer som drømme, svigt og forventninger. ”Fighting with My Family” er skrevet og instrueret af Stephen Merchant, der var en af skaberne bag The Office, så vi kan godt forvente os hylende morsom, tør britisk humor mellem kampene. I rollen som Paige finder vi Florence Pugh, der bl.a. har spillet Katherine Lester i ”Lady Macbeth” fra 2016, og derudover så får filmen også fornemt besøg af tidligere wrestler og Hollywoodstjerne Dwayne ”The Rock” Johnson.
