Synopsis

Ricky “The Dragon” Steamboat is one of the most celebrated performers in the history of sports entertainment. He gained prominence in the Carolina territory before becoming a fan favorite in WCW and WWE. His championship bouts with Ric Flair for the NWA title were highly anticipated and kept audiences engaged, while his Intercontinental Championship match with “Macho Man” Randy Savage at WrestleMania is often regarded as one of the greatest matches in the event's history. Now available on DVD for the first time, this 3-DVD set includes a biographical documentary about Steamboat’s life and highlights some of the most significant matches of his career.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 11

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
