Hunter lifts, runs, and pounds protein, fortifying himself into a human action figure with one goal: to get signed by a major promotion. Wrestling was going to be a ticket out for Hunter's father, but it never came; he vowed his children wouldn't waste their lives chasing a dream with no guarantee of success. Despite his father's wishes, Hunter drops out of college to pursue his ambition, settling for the accessible catharsis of the sport's smallest stages where, for a few hours, they can be whoever they want to be.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eRich with drama, humor, and heart, \u003cem\u003eRough House\u003c\/em\u003e peels back the curtain on one of America's most easily dismissed cultural phenomena.
