Ready to Rumble is pure early 2000s slapstick built around pro wrestling fandom. Character traits are focused on goofy personalities and underdog journeys, not identity boxes. There is no forced representation or heavy-handed ideology getting in the way of the story. What you get is lowbrow humor and wrestling heroics, unburdened by modern social messaging.

This film fully embraces classic masculine tropes: male friendship, unashamed bodily humor, and underdog grit. There’s no attempt to mock family, faith, masculinity, or other cultural anchors, instead, the movie plays all these things for laughs or light-hearted celebration. No cultural revisionism or subversion here, just some earnest, albeit crude, fun.

The only 'worldview' is the grand, exaggerated world of ’90s pro wrestling fans. Alternative perspectives aren’t villainized because ideology isn’t the point. There’s no real commentary on identity, gender, or society, just satire of wrestling and fandom. It's almost innocent by modern standards: a popcorn comedy uninterested in preaching or hammering home any message.
