The ultimate guide to 2002 - this book gathers the highlights, the heroes and the heels in a lavishly illustrated full-colour record for every wrestling fan. 2002 was a epic year for WWE fans, covering amongst other sensations the return of Hollywood Hulk Hogan to the ring and The Rock conquering Hollywood in his turn. Now here is the book that every WWE fan will want to own: a fabulous full-colour in-depth record of the year -- the hits, the slams and the stars -- all here in a lavish package for fans to relive and keep. 2002 was also the year that saw the extension of WWE programming into Raw and Smackdown -- another exciting development fully discussed. Each of the special events such as Wrestlemania and Backlash is covered in full alongside the regular weekly matches, and a close-up on the superstars tells you who's hot and who to watch out for in 2003. Crammed with colour action photos capturing all the drama and passion that is WWE, and with inside information available nowhere else, the World Wrestling Entertainment Yearbook 2002 is the ultimate record for every wrestling fan.

This review is from: The World Wrestling Entertainment Yearbook 2003 Edition (Paperback)

I great read on the year of 2002 of wrestling. This has everything thing that happened within the year of 2002. It goes to pay-per-view to pay-per-view and laying out how all the story lines developed week to week. This is a great bookd if you want to know how everything was laid out and done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Yearbook of the year!!! A must-buy for wrestling fans!!, May 12, 2003

A. Lanning "andylango" (United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: The World Wrestling Entertainment Yearbook 2003 Edition (Paperback)

A thoroughly comprehension year-in-review of almost every aspect of the 2002 season.
Well written, well researched, it's full of facts and behind the scenes dope that are presented in a witty and amazingly insightful manner.
I'd never heard of Mr.McAvennie before but he's a sports writer to watch out for- more like this please!
Matched with literally hundreds of great photos, this is a must for anyone who's got the slightest interest in WWE.
