The voice of micro wresting, &#8220;Ivar the Micro,&#8221; dreams of going from hype man to wrestler despite significant physical risk. Popular veteran &#8220;Lil&#8217; Show&#8221; wrestles to support his wife and children but fears his best moments in the ring are behind him. And, the up-and-coming wrestler &#8220;Hot Rod&#8221; must prove his talent lives up to his ego. Despite internal dramas and frustrations, Micro Wresting Federation CEO Jack Darrell Hillegass encourages the group to work together as a family as they approach &#8220;MicroFest,&#8221; the biggest micro wresting event of the year.<\/p><div id=\"morty-3039454832\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>&#8220;Alongside spectacular feats of athleticism, this Discovery series broadens the way we reveal compelling stories of remarkable people overcoming huge odds,&#8221; said Howard Lee, President of Discovery Networks and TLC.<\/p>\n<p>Audiences can follow the conversation on social media with #BigLittleBrawlers and follow Discovery on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for more updates.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;<em>Big Little Brawlers<\/em>&#8221; is produced for Warner Bros.
