John Brickner (Steve Austin) is recently on parole from a jail. By sheer necessity, he has to make a tough choice in these times of recession. Thus, he hesitatingly enters into the illicit world of underground fighting. He tries to mend his life on the outside in the midst of a world filled with offenders, criminal assassins and other sorts of anti-social elements. But, the professional fighting supporter Reno (Walton Goggins) and Frankie (Laura Vandervoot) help him climb up the ladder of underground leadership. The risk increases as Brickner puts it all under threat in a clash to the finish.
