The photography in this book is amazing. Like most coffee table books, I assumed the words would be borring and the focus would be on the images. I was wrong! Even my mom, who is not a wrestling fan, thought it was the best coffee table book she ever read!

"Unscripted" is a coffee table style book from World Wrestling Entertainment. It focuses on the WWE Superstars and gives us a behind-the-scenes look at the Superstars and their lives. The book is broken up into three sections, each with the focus on a different aspect of the Superstars' life. In each section, a Superstar gets a two page spread that has photography and something written by the Superstar about his or her life (or career).

I wouldn't say that "Unscripted" is in depth, by any means, but it does gives us descriptions of the lives of the wrestlers that we would not ordinarily have. For example, Chris Jericho writes about how he does not have an ego about what he does because when he gets home his wife still makes him take out the garbage. The Undertaker wrote about how he had almost played professional basketball and how he decided to turn to the ring. Kurt Angle wrote about wrestling in the Olympics with a broken neck and why he did it. Each wrestler gives a little glimpse into their lives, what they do, and why. We really just get a glimpse of the wrestling world through the eyes of the wrestlers. As a fan of the WWE product, I found this to be interesting (if less in depth than, say, Mick Foley's autobiography). This is a coffee table book, however, so there are many pictures and not too much text. This is one you can pick up, look at a two page spread, and then put down again to peruse at your leisure.

Unscripted is one of the best books I have ever read,
and I highly recomend it.

The pictures are just wonderful, simply amazing.
The wrestlers that are in Unscripted really give a good
hard look into the wrestling world and there personal lifes.

The pictures and writing that Unscripted shows lets you look at wrestlers in a light that you havent seen them in before.
Take the Stephanie McMahon and Triple H pictures for example, you can really see the love that they have for each other in it,
that you wont see on tv.

Other pictures like one of Torrie Wilson are just really good shots.
There are others like that thorugh out the entire book.

Unscripted lets you see things like; how proud Vince and Linda McMahon are of there kids Shane and Stephanie.
How Triple H, The Rock, Kurt Angle, Brock Lesner, Ric Flair and
Edge all look at the wrestling world thorugh there eyes.

Unscripted also gives you a look at the wrestlers personal lifes, like how The Undertaker and his wife met, and how Kurt Angle talks about how he broke his neck, and how he won his gold medals at the '96 olympics with the broken neck.

All in all this is a good book, it's a good read also. If you like wrestling you'll really, really like this book, if you like to read, you'll like this book, if you like wrestling books, you'll LOVE this book! So go out and buy this book you wont regret it!

I must admit I wasn't too keen on this book, at first. I thought it was going to be some fluffy coffee table book with loads of pictures and absolutely no substance whatsoever.

I couldn't have been more wrong.

This book gives its audience of wrestling fans a glimpse at some of their favorite performers' lives outside the ring and a lot of what's revealed is oft-surprising and always insightful. I've been a fan for more than twenty years and even I was somewhat shocked at some of what I read. An excellent read as far as coffee table books go.

The pictures are well done and appropriate and the actual content of the book is very enjoyable. I whole-heartedly recommend this selection to wrestling fans everywhere.

I recently bought this book, and after reading it, I think its the best WWE book ever. It gives you an inside look on what the Superstars are really like, and how they travel day to day. Some of the superstars discuss how they broke through the doors of the WWE, and what thier home life is like. The bottom line is, this is definatly a MUST HAVE for the true wrestling fan :)

This book is different from all the other WWE books I have read. All of the wrestlers are in it. It tells you how they grew up what has happened in their life. It also tells how they got into wrestling if it was for the better or the worst. It also tells you about what really goes on behind the curtain, also how they prepare before a match. The book also tells you if you want to get into the business the superstars tell you how you can and what they use to help them stay healthy and strong and some of them flexible. They also talk about what kind of injuries they have had, how long they were out for, and how serious the injury was.

I would recommend this book to any wrestling fan. It is a really good book for people who just started to get into wrestling because it tells you a little bit about them and it has pictures of the superstars. You will also know what their real names are and what there characters names are.

But it's not a bad read for a cold rainy day. The photos are of high quality. Some of the diva photos are from a WWE Divas magazine shoot. The interviews are pretty good. If you are a new fan, or casual fan (like me) it's a nice present. If you're a photography buff, it's neat also. But I'm glad I didn't pay list price.

I have received quite a few books from Amazon.com, this is the first book, which I paid a higher price for that came to me in terrible condition. The cover of the book was ripped and dirty. Also the pages had marks on them and the binding of the book was broken. Somebody must have been eating while reading this book. I was very disappointed. This book was a birthday present to me from my Mother.

This is the best book ever.
It talks about the superstars personal life, and there wrestling life. If you like wrestling at all you will love this book its worth every cent.
