Hősünk profi kerékpáros a '70-es években, noha igazság szerint mind a hős, mind a profi szót idézőjelbe kellene tennünk. Az amatőr státuszból nagy nehezen küzdötte fel magát, de sem fizikailag, sem lelkileg nem alkalmas arra, hogy igazán komoly versenyeket nyerjen. Ennek ellenére robusztus alkatú bátyja úgy dönt, hogy a menedzsere lesz, és nem hagyja, hogy öccse feladja. Mindeközben megismerhetjük a biciklizés hőskorát, amikor a győztesek először lettek igazi sztárok és érdekes dolgokat tudunk meg a doppingolásról, a csapatmunkáról, a szponzorrendszer kialakulásáról, vagy éppen a sportriporteri munka fonákságairól.

ECW- Extreme Championship Wrestling returns with the second installment of what has emerged as the most talked about wrestling video available... "Path of Destruction". The voice of Joey Stiles gives exclusive commentary and insight to memorable ECW matches. P.O.D. delivers the high-flying, hard-hitting, brutal action that pushes the limits of insanity to the point where it can only be labeled HARDCORE!!!
This anthology of wrestling mayhem from Extreme Championship Wrestling promises an "emotional barbed wire hell," and it delivers. In one gory match, Terry Funk, whose specialty is taking more punishment than any sane person could stand, meets the evil and vicious Sabu in a ring surrounded with barbed wire. In their battle for the ECW World Heavyweight championship, it doesn't take long for them to be smeared with blood, beating the hell out of each other while hopelessly entangled in strands of wire. It eventually takes several men with tools to cut them free as the announcer proclaims that the action just witnessed is too brutal to ever be shown on television. In another match Steve Austin, before he became "Stone Cold" and attained primetime stardom, battles in a "three-way dance" with other notorious bad asses Mikey Whipwreck and the Sandman. And Mick Foley, in his "Cactus Jack" persona, tangles with Terry Funk and gets burned (literally).
