"The idiots guide to pro wrestling"

[Guest Jerichoholic]

I've recently been reading "the idiots guide to pro wrestling" and it's a great book. I'd recommend it to all wrestling fans. It contains all the facts, history and backround information that u'd wanna know.

[Guest Seabass]

do what Jeriholic says and get the book

If one of you want to do a review of it for TWO, let me know.

Well if were recomending Pro Wrestling Information books, try Buzz on Pro Wrestling by Scot Keith. A little tame compared to http://www.thesmarks.com stuff but still a pretty good read.

I bought that book (Idiot's Guide) about 3 years ago and thought it was very aptly titled - it's garbage!

 

It's cover to cover of misinformation and mistakes.

As the title suggests,it is for those new to pro-wrestling and it provides a nice introduction to those not familiar with those strange wrestling phrases.Long time fans with a decent knowledge of 'sports-entertainment' should stear clear as it does contain some errors.Those that want a guide to titles and their past winners should try to track down a copy of PWI's Wrestling Almanac which is released once every year.

Do I take this to mean your all idiots? :D

Idiot is strong, I like Common sense challenged better.

[Guest Sasuke]

I too have this book and while I suppose it is good for newbies, who are just getting into wrestling, it really wouldn't tell the "hardcore" fan anything they didn't already know. Plus, it does contain a fair share of mistakes.

 

Only really worth reading if you're starting from scratch.

"The Buzz" is quite good - it's reviewed over at SmashWrestling.com ;)
