Over the years, the FloWrestling team has done the dirty work to bring you some of the best FloFilms from inside the Hawks nest. So, as we wait for live-action (and the Metcalf film), let’s binge-watch the nine different films that are all about past and present Hawkeyes.

(2016) Dan Dennis: Wild Man

Episode 1 | Episode 2

He's not your grandmother's Olympian. With a rough and rugged exterior and disregard for social norms, Iowa's Dan Dennis is one of the toughest SOBs on the planet.

(2017) Thomas Gilman: Love Me Or Hate Me

Episode 1 | Bonus Episode 

null


No matter how you feel about him, Thomas Gilman is one of the most polarizing and enigmatic wrestlers we have ever seen. From his physical, attacking style on the mat to his brutally honest answers in interviews, Gilman had the eye of every wrestling fan anytime he stepped on the mat or in front of camera.

But there's more to Gilman beyond what fans see on the mat. Dan Dennis describes him as a hippie and maybe even a geek. For the first time go inside the life and mind of three-time All-American and world team member, Thomas Gilman.

(2018) Austin DeSanto’s Vision Quest

Episode 1

Moments after a lopsided defeat at the PIAA state wrestling tournament, Austin DeSanto set out on a vision quest to avenge his loss to a high school living legend, Spencer Lee. A three-time Pennsylvania state champ, Lee was the pound-for-pound #1 wrestler in the country and had an undefeated record all through high school.  

DeSanto's decision to pursue Lee after a tech-fall defeat the previous year was thought of as a pipe dream to nearly everyone. Except Austin.
