Matthew Grobar of Deadline reported more information about "Stranglehold", which is from actor-turned-filmmaker Clark Duke and Yale Productions. Becker was not named in the article, so her role in the film is unclear.
Per Grobar, the film is billed as a "Southern-fried siege, with shades of 'Dog Day Afternoon' and 'Die Hard'."
Becker left WWE following the June 28th episode of WWE SmackDown. Fightful Select reported more information about her departure.
