Fighting with My Family is a dramedy bio film, directed by Stephen Merchant and produced by Dwayne Johnson. It tackles the subject of Professional Wrestling.Based off the 2012 documentary of the same name, the film follows the Bevis family. Well they prefer to be known as the Knights. They are a wrestling family - of parents Patrick and Julia (ring names Ricky and Saraya respectively), brother Zak and daughter Saraya. The latter is best known as Paige. Both Saraya and Zak try out for WWE. Guess which one makes it.The film stars Florence Pugh in the lead role, Jack Lowden as Zak, Nick Frost and Lena Headey as their parents, Vince Vaughn as developmental trainer Hutch Morgan, Dwayne Johnson as himself, and actual pro wrestler and actress Thea Trinidad as A.J. Lee.

No Celebrities Were Harmed: A lot of WWE talents during Paige's time in developmental are featured as side characters without actually being named, specifically Summer Rae, Sofia Cortez, Kelly Kelly, Eve Torres, Alexa Bliss, and Pete Dunne. British talents Jodie Fleisch and Kip Sabian also feature as un-named Performance Center trainers.

Historical Villain Downgrade
 Fighting with My Family / int_18baa751
comment
Historical Villain Downgrade: The film actually tones down how Paige was treated when she first arrived at developmental. She's shown to be self-absorbed and Innocently Insensitive - alienating some of her contemporaries until they become Fire-Forged Friends. In real life she was bullied to the degree that her things were thrown out of the locker room, and Summer Rae was literally her Only Friend. Also toned down is the infamously rough Knight family way of training wrestlers, and the family's attitude to such. Aside from reports from former trainees including homophobic abuse, and borderline assault during matches, they also trained Paige so roughly that she had to be re-taught by NXT to not be so rough on the other girls.

comment
Adaptational Skimpiness: The film's version of A.J. Lee has wrestling gear that includes a Cleavage Window and exposes her shoulders. The most amount of skin the real AJ showed were her legs and her midriff, and they were never emphasized. note Word of God says this was done to visually contrast Paige and AJ, as the real AJ had an "edgy outsider look" that isn't so different from Paige, which would've downplayed or outright diminished the movie's narrative of Paige being an "outcast"

Mythology Gag: The family's penis jokes at Zak's expense references the actual documentary in which they made similar remarks. During a house show, Paige was told she would get her mouth fixed. In the actual documentary, Paige is seen doing just that (with the Adapted Out older half-sister mentioned above being her surgeon). The Rock mockingly calls Hutch "Sex Tape". Before the film's release, the real Saraya had her privacy compromised.

Adaptational Modesty: Subverted by A.J. Lee. In the film, she’s wearing a robe over her wrestling gear which consists of short shorts and a midriff revealing top. The real AJ wore similar gear but never wore robes in her entrances during her WWE career. Also, the movie AJ wears a more revealing top. Paige herself in the movie tends to wear full sized t-shirts, which contrasts her significantly with all of the other female wrestlers in bikinis, while the real Paige tended to wear similar attire just in black and purple. Even in her climactic match against AJ, Paige wears a black corset and short shorts. note Likely reason is that it would be difficult for the actress to get in the same shape as all the professional stuntmen and models around her, and it would help hide the use of a Stunt Double.

Abled in the Adaptation: The documentary the film is based on shows Zak getting his knee injured weeks before Saraya leaves for Florida. The film omits the Game-Breaking Injury. Saraya/Paige was diagnosed with Scoliosis during her time training with the WWE, after a trainer noticed that her back didn't "look right", likely the result of wrestling from such a young age. This is completely omitted from the film entirely, and no mention of her back problems is made.

Adaptational Nice Guy: Hutch Morgan who is expy of then NXT trainer Bill DeMott is at worse just a tough but fair Drill Sergeant Nasty trainer. He is nowhere near as awful as the real Demott who was later on actually fired for his misconduct which included racial and homophobic slurs, bullying, wrestlers and making them wrestle naked as a form of humiliation.

Do Wrong, Right: The trailer shows Ricky finding Zak choking Raya.

Heel Realization: Paige struggles bonding with the other girls due to the culture shift and her own frustrations that they don't actually know how to wrestle because they were Hired for Their Looks. She perceived them as a Girl Posse edging her out, only to learn one of them had a daughter and she never bothered to bond with them either. The following Training Montage includes her making the effort to befriend and even teach them how to wrestle.

Adaptation Dye-Job: Downplayed. Saraya has the same stringy black hair as a child. In real life she's naturally blonde and didn't dye her hair black until her late teens. Sweet Saraya's dyed hair is Rosewood red for most of the film. In the documentary the film is based on, her hair is dyed Crimson red. Jack Lowden gets to keep his hazel blonde hair despite the real Zak Bevis being dirty blonde.

Composite Character
 Fighting with My Family / int_e4965307
comment
Composite Character: Vince Vaughn's character Hutch Morgan; He is a combination of many different trainers working in WWE developmental. His Drill Sergeant Nasty persona is clearly based off Bill DeMott. Additional trainers at the time Paige was in developmental included Dusty Rhodes and Sara Amato. He also mentioned to have fought The Rock in a Hell in a Cell match, whom threw him from the top of the cell. The Rock only competed once (Armageddon 2000) inside said structure, meaning Hutch is also taking the places of Kurt Angle, "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, The Undertaker, Triple H, and Rikishi. Also the throwing from the top of the cell happened in a much earlier time (King of the Ring 1998) and between two different wrestlers, thus the film also has Hutch absorbing Mick Foley's history (as the one thrown) as well as fusing The Rock and The Undertaker's (as the throwers). Paige's three contemporaries in her time in developmental; Jeri-Lynn has the wrestling gear (pre-2015 Face–Heel Turn, at least) and cheerleading background of Alexa Bliss. But having the most interactions with Saraya, she is the film's closest counterpart to Summer Rae (who was Saraya's first friend). Maddison is Saraya's Tag Team partner much like Sofia Cortez was, but she has the wrestling gear and modelling background of Eve Torres. Perhaps not coincidentally, Maddison and the two wrestlers mentioned are all Hispanics. Kirsten's overall appearance invokes Summer Rae more than Jeri-Lynn does, but she is wearing Kelly Kelly's wrestling gear. She also seems to be based on Emma, Saraya's other blonde friend and contemporary after Summer Rae. They also took the places of Summer Rae, Emma, and Alicia Fox as the ones who congratulated Paige after her debut match.

Happily Ever Before: The film's epilogue doesn't state that Paige had to retire at the age of twenty-five due to injuries finally catching up with her, nor the controversies she got herself into prior to that.Postscript She would come out of retirement at age 30 in late 2022 in AEW as Saraya.

Adaptation Origin Connection: Wrestlers wearing the wrestling gears of Kelly Kelly, Eve Torres, and Alexa Bliss are contemporaries of Paige in the film. In real life, the first two were on the main roster and were on their way out of the company by the time Paige debuted whereas the latter only had her televised debut match when Paige already moved to the main roster.

One-Steve Limit: The reason why Saraya drops her Britani Knight ring name is because she was told WWE already has a Britani. Also worth mentioning is that her mother's ring name is Sweet Saraya.

A Minor Kidroduction: The film opens with Zak and Saraya as children respectively fighting over watching either King of the Ring 2000 or Charmed (1998).

Unkempt Beauty: Played with, Saraya feels very out of place compared to the professional models and cheerleaders she's competing against. She decides to give herself a makeover with platinum blonde hair and a spray tan, which doesn't go over well, and she goes back to her (relative) natural look when she gets a new resolve to Be Yourself.

Maddison is Saraya's Tag Team partner much like Sofia Cortez was, but she has the wrestling gear and modelling background of Eve Torres. Perhaps not coincidentally, Maddison and the two wrestlers mentioned are all Hispanics.

Historical Beauty Update
 Fighting with My Family / int_f740a274
comment
Historical Beauty Update: Even with the make-up on, Lena Headey is a lot more conventionally attractive than the real Julia/Sweet Saraya. Jack Lowden is a bit more of a Pretty Boy than Zak. He's also in much better shape than the real guy too. The documentary the film adapts depicts Zak being told that his physique is one of the reasons he's not signed. In the film he's just as good as the rest of them. Florence Pugh herself is an aversion. The documentary the film is adapted from has a whole section on Saraya's beauty, and how marketable she is. In fact the film almost downplays her beauty, emphasizing how out of place she feels against more glamorous girls.

Survivor Guilt: A non-fatal example. Saraya feels guilty for being chosen over Zak, who has dreamed being in WWE more than she does.

comment
The film actually tones down how Paige was treated when she first arrived at developmental. She's shown to be self-absorbed and Innocently Insensitive - alienating some of her contemporaries until they become Fire-Forged Friends. In real life she was bullied to the degree that her things were thrown out of the locker room, and Summer Rae was literally her Only Friend.
