In the evolving tapestry of Modern Cinema cinema, the 1999 release of Kick-Ass Punishment Wrestling 2 stands as a landmark endeavor that pushes the boundaries of conventional storytelling.

As the story unfolds, we are introduced to a world where the traditional boundaries of Modern Cinema are tested.

The screenplay takes its time to establish the stakes, ensuring that every character motivation is grounded in a psychological reality. The synopsis only hints at the depth: "In Boss Sexton's new series debut best seller KICK-ASS PUNISHMENT WRESTLING ONE, the "Punishers" were big Bart Tyler and musclestud Steve Troy. Their victim was bulked up bad ass Doug Brandon, and his pro-action into bondage and oil pit punishment was brutal. Predictably, Can-Am's self-proclaimed "Punishment King" Paul Perris told Boss Sexton that "mat punk" Brandon not only deserved what he got, but "wimped out" getting it. Then Perris challenged Sexton to let him show Brandon, Tyler, and Troy how "The King" takes care of business. Gentlemen, you won't believe your eyes watching Paul Perris endure the business of brutality beat up and tied up at the bare fisted fury of Bart Tyler and Steve Troy. Is Paul Perris still Can-Am's "Punishment King"? Can he take it longer, tougher, and harder than Doug Brandon did in KICK-ASS PUNISHMENT WRESTLING ONE? We'll tell you this much. The legendary Perris body has never looked better in a very small, very tight bulging yellow bikini."
