It's not even out in America yet. The only place you can realistically pick it up is the Canadian amazon site.

It's a must read book for anyone that likes wrestling, particularly for those that got into it during the Hogan years and beyond. It's not a light read but you definitely get your moneys worth. The detail in it is phenomenal.

The wrestling shop in St. Steven's Green Shopping Centre HAD it, but only had 5 copies.(Very hard got but is on order again) It is going on release in the UK next month and should be easier to get then.

Getting stuck in is the best way to describe the approach you need to take when reading it!

Thats what I thought when I paged through it earlier, the writing is tiny! And Im the slowest reader ever so expect my thoughts on the book some time in the nerw year

I'm borrowing it off you when you're done, you didn't know that until now

On a side issue, I'm just about finished Jericho's book and its a fantastic read. Its genuinely laugh out loud funny, there's some great insight into Puro and Lucha, he pulls no punches in cutting the back off certain people and its actually well written.

Up there with Dynamite kid's book as the best wrestling book in circulation.

Couldn't agree more. The book is about 400 pages and I read it in 3 nights, and I am not a fast reader. I just couldn't put it down. Its an absolute riot from start to finish, with hilarity following Jericho around the world. His personality bursts off the page.

I bet you won't read Bret's in 3 nights! Very different book.

Much "darker" is it?I read a number of reviews about it and it seems that he exposes all the backstage politics aswell as the problems within the industry.

It's not short on detail. The last 100 pages of it are also very dark.

The more I bet the greater incentive you would have to do it! So let's say a euro.

His story about his taxi ride through Belfast is interesting I must say.

Clever lad. You're not an economist by any chance?

I won't take your euro. I don't want to ruin my enjoyment of the book by forcing my way through it.
