Book Description

March 2001
Brad Blaze meets with pro wrestling’s most powerful figure, Mel McCauley, on the eve of the year’s biggest show to discuss a promise that was made. Before Brad’s best friend, the Masked Marvel passed away, he asked Brad to keep the Marvel’s legacy alive after he died.

Mel asks Brad to talk his son, Mel Jr. out of entering the business by reflecting on the hardships he went through on the independent circuit. Pinfall: School of Hard Knox follows Brad’s career from wrestling school to traveling to the dark rings the deep south.

High hopes come crashing down as the realities of life on the road sink in and the dangers of the life surface. Brad’s longing to be with the woman he left behind in Boston makes life harder, but sacrifice is apart of the job.

The question now is what will Brad sacrifice, a promise and his last chance at fame or a life with the woman he’s always loved. Pinfall: School of Hard Knox is the first in the three part Pinfall trilogy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, April 1, 2001

This review is from: Pinfall: School of Hard Knox (Paperback)
This is a great book, it lets the common man see what it is like to live the life of a professional wrestler. You get to learn that it is not all glitz and glamour, and that it is really dangerous. It makes you want to read on and on. I can't wait for parts two and three.

5.0 out of 5 stars An up and coming writer. Keep your eye on him!, October 27, 2003
This review is from: Pinfall: School of Hard Knox (Paperback)
A well written story, with characters that are multidimensional. Descriptions that draw you into the pages, and a plot that doesn't fizzle and fade by the middle of the book. Matthews is definitely one to watch, I expect great things from him in the future. Give it a read. I doubt you'll be able to put it down until you turn the last page.

5.0 out of 5 stars Phenomenal !!, September 5, 2001
By 
Scott Franklin (Redlands, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Pinfall: School of Hard Knox (Paperback)
This book should be given more advertisement within the wrestling community. I read it twice! Front to back, cover to cover. The story shows the inside of professional wrestling. It has action for the guys and romance for the girls. I encourage all people, even if you aren't a wrestling fan, to buy this book and give this talented author a chance to become one of your favorites. Mark my words, it will be a book that you will read more than once!!
