Christian, real name Jey Reso, will play the role of Stephen Drake, who's the host of "THE MMA SHOW WITH Stephen Drake", dubbed as the world's largest MMA podcast.
Moxley, on the other hand, plays the part of Randy Stone, a world-renowned professional wrestler who is all set to try his hand in an MMA fight. Check out some exclusive pictures from the movie in the tweet below, courtesy Wrestling Inc.:
Wrestling Inc. is reporting that Christian also worked as an Executive Producer for the movie, and was the one responsible for bringing in Moxley to play the role of Stone.
This isn't the first time Moxley and Christian would be seen on the big screen. Moxley starred in the 3rd edition of 12 Rounds back in 2015. Christian has also worked in a bunch of movies, including Shoot 'Em Up and Dark Rising, both released in 2007.

He completed his MBA from the Symbiosis Institute of Telecom Management in 2016 and worked with multiple banking institutions, including Tech Mahindra. While he started writing WWE articles for Sportskeeda in 2019 as a hobby, it eventually became a significant part of his professional journey.
Abhilash checks his articles thrice before sending them to the editing team, ensuring his work is highly accurate and reliable.
He has interviewed prominent pro wrestling personalities like Noam Dar, Angry Miz Girl, Brendan Cobbina, and Jesse Lambert. Abhilash is a big fan of AEW star Orange Cassidy, as he believes the former International Champion’s on-screen gimmick of an extremely lazy guy resonates with him.
Given the opportunity to script WWE’s next big storyline, Abhilash would treat fans to the second installment of The Bloodline Civil War. He would book Roman Reigns to re-form The Bloodline with The Usos and Sami Zayn upon his comeback. The angle would see The Tribal Chief-led group go head-to-head with The Rock, Solo Sikoa, Tama Tonga, and Jacob Fatu in a blockbuster family feud.
When not reporting on pro wrestling, Abhilash likes to work out, go on walks, read, and explore new eateries.
