Professional wrestling is the greatest performance art in the history of the world for one very important reason: it’s the only one that has been able to consistently convince its fans that the participants really hate each other. In fact, its ability to straddle that line has enabled them to keep fans wondering where the work ends and the shoot begins for over a century now.
Of course, that also works in reverse, because there have been plenty of people in the business who legitimately hated each other’s guts to legendary proportions. The people involved sometimes had to put their differences aside to work together, so fans may have believed that the heat was just part of the show, but make no mistake: the hard feeling run deep between the wrestlers involved in the situations described in this book. Tag team partners who despised each other, long held business grudges, and even a guy who accidentally booked his own divorce...it's all in here, and it's all real!
This book also includes the following bonus features:
-With Friends Like You: The Many People Who Turned On Hulk Hogan
-One Warrior Nation: The Ultimate Warrior's Ill-Fated WCW Run
