This book is completely worthless to anyone who is already a wrestling fan. It gives very short and undetailed biographies for many wrestlers. It is FILLED with mistakes, including listing wrestlers as belonging to the wrong company, and misquoting people. Whatever you do, don't buy this book. It is a waste of money.

This book is great if you are a wrestling fan and it provides 16 full-colored photos of you favorite wrestling stars and an in-depth look at all the heels and heros of wrestling. This book takes you to a place you've never been before and it provides information about the wrestlers when they are not in the ring as well. Not only does it have the superstars of today, but it also has the great legends of wrestling from the past. Robert Picarello, author of a New York Times bestseller Rulers of the Ring, did a magnificent job creating this book. I highly recommend this book to all wrestling fans because this book has off-the-hook information on over 50 wrestling stars!!

Thank You Very Much!!! Your Time Is Appreciated!!!

This book was great! It had all I want to know about my favorite wrestlers and many cool photos. All my friends keep borrowing my copy--I think I'm going to have to buy all of them their own copies! I even brought it with me to WWF New York--the restaurant in Times Square--and everyone was impressed witha ll that this book covered. My 7th grade students even keep borrowing my book--and they usually don't like to read anything! So, as long as it holds their interests and keeps them reading, I'm thrilled.

Like I said, if you're looking for Shakespeare--buy a copy of Hamlet. But if you want the background on all your favorite wrestlers, this is the book for you! Just get your own copy--I'm not lending mine out anymore!

I really liked this book! This is the first book I could find on various wrestlers (instead of just one wrestler) that is current and up-to-date. I like all the pictures and the facts on each wrestler. I bought one for myself and one for my 14-year-old nephew who is obsessed with wrestling and he loved this book, too! I bought his first book and that one was excellent, too. But I like this one even more because it has more pictures and more wrestlers. Keep 'em coming, Mr. Picarello!

What can you say about this book except that it has it all. From contemporary bad guys to Rowdy Roddy Piper to George 'The Animal' Steele. You have to say that Picarello knows his way around the Squared Circle! A must for your wrestling library.
