Ricky, ancien gangster, Julia, Paige et Zak font partis d'une famille de catcheurs. Les enfants, Paige et Zak, s'inscrivent dans un concours de WWE. Bien que talentueux, les deux jeunes gens vont devoir se battre, au sens propre comme au figuré, afin de devenir des stars de cette pratique.

Timeshift turns back the clock to a time when villains wore silver capes, grannies swooned at the sight of bulky men in latex and the most masculine man in the country was called Shirley. In its heyday, British professional wrestling attracted huge TV audiences and made household names of generations of wrestlers from Mick McManus and Jackie 'Mr TV' Pallo to Giant Haystacks and Big Daddy. With contributions from inside the world of wrestling and surprising fans such as artist Peter Blake, this is an affectionate and lively portrait of a lost era of simpler pleasures, both in and out of the ring.
