Ricky Schroder and Laura Bell Bundy Talk Wrestling, Filming To the Mat

Posted on August 18, 2011

Ricky Schroder and Laura Bell Bundy got a taste of the world of professional wrestling in CMT's first original movie, To The Mat.

Ricky says he plays a wrestler that takes over his family's failing business.

Ricky says he owned his spandex and his face paint to do the role. He says he did the backflip stunt himself -- twice. Laura Bell Bundy plays his uptight business advisor who is torn between work and her personal life.

To the Mat airs next on CMT on Saturday, August 20, 2011, at 6:00 PM ET/PT, and on Sunday, August 21, at 2:00 PM ET/PT, and 7:30 PM ET/PT. Take a look:
