Wrestling Book Reviews

WWE Rumble Road: Untold Stories from Outside the Ring Book Review

2005’s ‘Are We There Yet? Tales from the Never Ending Travels of WWE Superstars’ was a book that I rather enjoyed. Wrestling is of course famous for the rigorous travel schedule and the Superstars themselves have reputations of being a boisterous bunch so mixing the two elements together guaranteed a hit. What we got was exactly that – it wasn’t complex, long or even a thought provoking read but it was pretty enjoyable. Five years later we have ‘Rumble Road: Untold stories from Outside the Ring’ can it live up to its predecessor?

Rope Opera: How WCW Killed Vince Russo Book Review

When you hear the name Vince Russo, what do you think? There's probably a good chance that you think of a writer who killed WCW with his booking. The man is notorious among the wrestling community as the man who brutalized WCW with his booking and is now doing the same to TNA. To be fair, the notion that he killed WCW is more accurate than the beginning of the book where “Vince Russo; The first man to actually make men in tights appealing” is written...

Hulk Hogan: My Life Outside the Ring Book Review

I very much doubt that I need to explain to you who Hulk Hogan is, considering the man is to wrestling what The Beatles are to music. But if you haven't been paying attention to his life in the past few years then this book will come as a surprise to you. To summarize, Hogan's wife Linda left him after an affair became public, and merely a fortnight after their son Nick had gotten into a car crash which reduced a family friend to permanent vegetative state. From there Hogan and Linda entered a bitter divorce battle while Nick Hogan was tried for his friend's injury as a result of the car crash...

WWE: Rey Mysterio - Behind the Mask Book Review

In probably one of their most brilliant marketing moves this year, the WWE waited until just before Christmas to release 'Behind the Mask'; the autobiography of none other than Rey Mysterio. With so much to cover in his storied career it has to be one of the most anticipated wrestling biographies released for some time...

WWE: Unauthorised History of DX Book Review

The Unauthorized History of D-Generation X is the first WWE autobiography released in a PG environment despite the subject matter extensively being marred in so much un-PG rated material. DX, as you probably know - if you’ve had any sort of knowledge of the WWE in the past decade or so - are a group that originally formed from remnants of the Kliq, a backstage group that consisted of Shawn Michaels, Triple H, Scott Hall, Sean Waltman and Kevin Nash...

Kurt Angle: It's True, it's True Book Review

And so once again I grace you’re computer screens to retrospectively review an old wrestling autobiography that seems to have largely fallen into obscurity with wrestling fans. This pick is “It’s True, It’s True!” by none other than Kurt Angle, everyone’s favourite American hero/braggart. On paper this sounded like a great read - Kurt Angle has certainly had a stellar life...

Bret Hart: My Real Life in the Cartoon World of Wrestling Book Review

Bret Hart: The best there is, the best there was and the best there’ll ever be...words that Bret Hart proclaimed about himself throughout his career. On paper it appeared to be nothing more than a wrestling gimmick, but when Bret Hart allowed the WWE to release a DVD documentary about his career it became rather apparent that this man really believed that moniker. The weird foible was that we finally had a look into his career only for it to be ruined by the very man we wanted to know more about...

Chris Jericho - A Lion's Tale: Around the World in Spandex Book Review

Wrestlers like Lita, William Regal and (for reasons I’ve never understood) Mick Foley have set a bar of excellence with their autobiographies. Unfortunately you also have wrestlers like Hulk Hogan who have set a bar of mediocrity in wrestling autobiographies. So for the benefit of Wrestling 101’s undernourished book section and because I actually want to talk about this book, I decided to take a crack at reviewing Chris Jericho’s opus, ‘A Lion’s Tale: Around the World in Spandex...

Hardy Boyz: Exist to Inspire Book Review

After the success of Mick Foley’s autobiography ‘Have a Nice Day’ the wrestling industry saw the production of a plethora of wrestling autobiographies released including Matt and Jeff Hardy’s entitled ‘Exist 2 Inspire’ in 2003. Chances are you have already heard numerous stories about the Hardy’s personal lives if you’ve been remotely connected to WWE in the last 7 years or so. Their rise in the WWE to the top of the Tag Team Division, their fall and eventual return with flourishing individual careers...

WWE Encyclopedia Book Review

You know, one thing that WWF/E always stood for in my mind was quality, quality wrestlers, quality shows and quality nights in watching your favourite wrestlers battle it out. Long gone are the days when a WWF program consisted of this massive mean machine beating up on some poor unknown and defeating him within 2 or 3 minutes, where was the fun in that? Then the times changed, the superstars began to wrestle each other week in week out and this once teenager was hooked. So what made WWF so watchable?
