kelleykMar 7, 2025I have no clue who Emily Bett Rickards is but take my money and give me another ticket to the gun show please! She's absolutely fabulous! A freakin' superstar! Someone I hope to see more of in the future. The climactic championship match was a total Drew vs Sheamus banger!…

every time i thought the women were gonna kiss, they didn’t 😕 this film is a beautifully inspiring true story that’s sadly weighed down by a bad script & iffy performances.

not even the buffest women alive could save this script the first half was really bland and rushed, the second half redeemed itself a good bit once things actually got interesting, the whole thing had a somehow overwritten and underwritten script along with some very odd…

Cloud_72 lovedQueen of the RingThis movie was amazing I won’t spoil I know the actress that Played Babs. The fact that this was based on a true story makes it more amazing you just have to see it for yourself honestly. It’s about a single mom trying to make her dreams a reality in the 1960s.
Elise Bodnyk likedQueen of the RingFantastic story, I’m glad that now I know about Mildred Burke. I think it would have made a better series than a movie, bc it had a lot to say and it is all worth hearing, but the movie did feel long.

I was counting down the minutes until the movie ended. I couldn't wait for it to be over. it was boring, slow, and demonstrated Black women as totally dependent on Whiteness for success.
JBja BoykinAmazing, every girl, women should see. Shows how Hard-work can payoff.
SWSherri WilliamsThe movies is an inspiration to call women...no matter what to follow your dreams.

Thoroughly enjoyed. Great for wrestling fans. Awesome for empowering women. Dream big, work hard inspiration.
GUGee UThis was cool to hear and watch because society never talked about this much less in school that young boys & girls need to know about because it's History making. Not only how WWE got its start but how women's entertainment wrestling got it's start. and to think that all…

MTMassa TulayIt was a great movie & a full circle moment!
MSMara SommersWe were totally glued to the screen. She was truly inspiring, it was interesting learning about the wrestling world, great story about her life. It's definitely worth seeing.

Queen of the Ring is more of a montage of the highlights of Burke’s illustrious life, rather than an entertaining film.

That story is beyond tragic, but although Queen of the Ring does have some sad moments, it's also a story of unwavering passion. As the final credits roll, you're going to feel a renewed strength thanks to such a powerful icon.
