“Heels” is a story about the men and women who chase their dreams in the world of small-town pro wrestling. Set in a close-knit Georgia community, it follows a family-owned wrestling promotion as two brothers and rivals, Jack Spade and Ace Spade, war over their late father’s legacy. In the ring, somebody must play the good guy, and somebody must play their nemesis, the heel. But in the real world, those characters can be hard to live up to -- or hard to leave behind.

It’s only in the second season that you see what this team is really capable of -- moving away from the brothers’ conflict to paint a wider portrait of broken hearts, masculine bravado and where the future of wrestling could lie. Go to Full Review

With its greater scope and more cohesive storytelling, Heels Season 2 ends in a way that demands Starz give it a Season 3. Go to Full Review

TheMovieSearch R @TheMovieSearch Dec 24 Heels season two is even more captivating than the first, deepening the narrative and providing richer development in the world of wrestling. The series continues to explore Jack and Ace Spade’s complex relationship while expanding the roles of supporting characters, adding layers of tension, loyalty, and rivalry. Every actor delivers an engaged, nuanced performance, fully embodying their characters and making the stakes feel real. The wrestling sequences remain thrilling, balancing high-energy spectacle with emotional storytelling. Secondary arcs, including family dynamics, personal struggles, and rivalries within the DWL, are expanded, giving the series a sense of depth and continuity. Season two is both enriching and engaging, keeping viewers invested from start to finish. The storytelling, performances, and wrestling action come together seamlessly, making it a must-watch continuation of the franchise. Its conclusion leaves a bittersweet feeling, as the series ends See more Ed R @JustcallmeER 02/27/2025 Incredible show with twists and turns that keep on coming! See more Jarrett M @unclepunch 02/20/2025 Absolutely phenomenal show , a must watch See more Torrey B @RT46078044 01/24/2025 Truly one of the best shows I have ever watched. I have loved wrestling my whole life, but the characters and stories in this show make it so that anybody can enjoy it. It's a shame that it was cancelled because there is a lot more story to be told. I hope Netflix decides to resurrect it. The character development of Wild Bill was so well written/acted. See more Chris S @RT30895255 11/25/2024 Phenomenal show. You could love, hate or be indifferent to wrestling and would still love this show. Great balance of wrestling and individual character drama outside of wrestling. If this show doesn’t go past 2 seasons it would be a massive mistake. The ending to season 2 is one of the greatest cliffhangers in history and I have watched a-lot of great shows See more Angelie G @RT19446593 11/20/2024 I'm surprised me and my husband haven't found this series a long time ago but we love it if I could rate it 10 Stars I would there are some parts that are funny there's some drama there's some emotion intensity and we absolutely love it it is so worth watching we did hear that they canceled a season 3 but I really hope they consider making a season 3 because we are at the edge of our seats and we really I want to see it.
