When Ushinosuke, a middle-aged professional wrestler, loses his wife, he and his son Kazuo move in with his father. His wrestling colleagues help them settle into their new home, celebrating with them, but Kazuo sits apart, visibly upset.

Discovering his son’s feelings, Ushinosuke arranges a unique death match against a karate champion, hoping for acceptance. Despite being repeatedly defeated, he keeps getting back up and fighting towards victory. Ultimately, he executes his signature move, a devastating backdrop, achieving a surprising win as Kazuo watches with pride.
