À propos de cet audio

The New York Times Best Seller

Recently retired WWE superstar AJ Mendez Brooks is a powerhouse - strong, quirky, and totally confident. But that wasn’t always the case. With humor and tremendous heart, she opens up for the first time about her harrowing struggle to understand her demons and the diagnosis that helped her gain control over her life.

Everything I was told should be my greatest insecurities and weaknesses, everything that I’ve been labeled - short, nerdy, skinny, weak, impulsive, ugly, tomboy, poor, rebel, loud, freak, crazy - turned out to be my greatest strengths. I didn’t become successful in spite of them. I became successful because of them.

Growing up AJ was a quiet girl trying to act “normal” when she felt anything but. As her family struggled with drug addiction, poverty, and mental illness, she found escape through comic books and video games, and was inspired by the tough and unconventional female characters. It wasn’t until she discovered pro wrestling that she learned superheroes could be real.

Determined to become the superhero she’d always admired, AJ trained and sacrificed for years to achieve her dream of wrestling professionally. Yet she quickly faced industry pressure to play the role of the damsel in distress and to dress more provocatively to cater to male fans. But she fought back and created an ass-kicking alter ego that was a genuine representation of herself: nerdy, enthusiastic, and a little bit crazy.

With humor and tremendous heart, AJ opens up for the first time about her harrowing struggle to understand her demons and the mental illness diagnosis that helped her gain control over her life. What most people view as a hardship, AJ embraced as inspiration for her superhero persona, shattering the stigma attached to mental illness.

Charting her journey from a scrappy girl in an unstable home to an empowered wrestling champion, Crazy Is My Superpower is an unflinchingly honest story and brave confessional about her long road to self-acceptance.

Loved it!

There is a lot I didn’t know about her rise to stardom and WWE. The book shares raw details about her life, struggling with her illness. Made me an even bigger fan of hers!

👏👏

So it took me two years

After two years of procrastinating, I finished the second half of this excellent audiobook. It made my day. AJ Lee was my favorite female wrestler (not diva), and it's interesting to hear her story. We both have to deal with mental illness (and craziness) and we're both fans of wrestling. I've already been thinking of trying wrestling lessons and perhaps using craziness to my advantage... Although our experiences are very different, I found some motivation and empowerment by listening to this. I have yet to vanquish my demons, but will keep trying. Thank you April for sharing your story, and I'll keep watching your grandpa on AEW.

A.J. tells a great story

Absolutely love this. it was great hearing her story, from growing up in New Jersey, to her time in WWE. you can think back to her story lines, and see how they intersected with her real life. princely the best biography of a wrestler or three right now.
