Plot:
Jason Stillwell is a karate student and a great fan of Bruce Lee. His father has a dojo and he trains there. One evening after the trainings the dojo is visited by members of an organized crime syndicate looking to take over all the dojos in the country. Jason's father refuses to join the organization and his leg is broken by a Soviet martial artist named Ivan Kraschinski (Jean-Claude Van Damme).
This makes Stillwell family to relocate to Seattle. The situation in Seattle is hard for Jason, he is constantly beaten and harassed by the local bullies. After getting beaten up and humiliated by Scott and Dean at his girlfriend birthday party, Jason visits the grave of Bruce Lee and beseeches him for aid. The same night he is suddenly awakened by the soul of Bruce Lee, who appears to Jason and begins to train him.
Later on, Jason, Tom and R. J attend an annual full contact kickboxing tournament featuring teams from Seattle and New York. The crime syndicate interrupts the tournament and challenges all the participants to face off Ivan. In one of the fights Jason's girlfriend (Kelly) tries to stop Ivan by hitting him with a stool, but the Soviet disarms her and grabs her by the hair. Angered by this, Jason charges to the ring and attacks Ivan to the delight of the crowd. Utilizing his advanced training, Jason is finally able to conquer his nemesis and earns the respect of his peers and family, who celebrate with him as the frustrated crime syndicate leaves Seattle.
