Description

"Sean's story, beginning as a renegade, outlaw company and evolving to redefining the shoot video genre, is extremely fascinating. Who knew that the man asking the questions was as fascinating as his subject matter?" - Justin Barrasso, Sports Illustrated

"Kayfabe brings to life a world that once had its own version of ‘omerta’ in a fascinating, well written book that will intrigue long time fans, new fans, and just those who are hoping to take a peek behind the curtain of this unlikely cultural phenomenon." - Eric Bischoff, WCW President

"I worked in a business full of liars, cheaters, workers, con artists and of course...politicians. I can name maybe 3 people over the years that I 100% trusted, or even believed for that matter. Sean Oliver is one of those men. In reading Kayfabe, you can believe that 100% of this masterpiece is accurate - yes, even the parts about me. The most stand-up guy perhaps ever associated with the business of Pro Wrestling. You want truth - you'll find it right here." - Vince Russo, Former WWE/WCW Head Writer

If you thought the world of pro wrestling was wild, imagine what you haven’t seen on TV and in the ring. Add to that the backdrop of building a renegade production company, negotiating with impossible wrestling talent, and hosting groundbreaking, shoot-style programming, and you have the story of Sean Oliver.

Sean has seen industry-wide accolades for the company he co-founded and for which he serves as front man. But there are also the threats, stories of abuse, and moments of downright hilarity that you haven’t known...until now.

Watch the unpredictable and unconventional story through Sean’s eyes.

Loved it!

I always wondered what the BTS of Youshoot was like. I put this one in the same place as Bret Hart & Bischoff's autobiography

Excellent book

Awesome book, if you're a fan of Youshoot or Kafabe Commentaries, will not be disappointed.

Great listen!

Very enjoyable. Fantastic stories and really honest discussion about business and what they did right and wrong. Interesting to listen to this now with all the wrestling podcasts out there. KC will be missed as the content is not as frequent anymore and looks like Sean has moved on.

Interviewer becomes the shooter

Great stories were expected but Sean Oliver's perspective and outlook made it for me.

Very funny and informative

Until Kayfabe Commentaries came along, wrestling shoot interviews (shoot meaning "real") often had poor audio etc...

Sean Oliver's company changed that and bought a frankly much needed air of professionalism to the genre. Not to mention broadened the format beyond what it had been before.

On camera Sean is professional and witty. This book is no different. Narrated by Oliver himself, we get to hear about his experiences inside the world of Professional Wrestling. As a long time wrestling fan it was interesting to learn which wrestlers are good people. Which ones are unprofessional. Which ones suffer from ego. Which ones are just... Well you get the idea.


If you're a pro wrestling fan I highly recommend this book. Sean was already a great interviewer. Here he's on the other side of the table and shoots with both barrels. Extremely funny and a unique insight into the business. A sequel to the book is apparently planned, and I can't wait.

The Intro was right.

in the introduction it mentions not being able to put the book down, in my case, stop listening. It was absolutely right. I cleared my schedule to listen to this as quickly as I could. if your on the fence, take this as a sign to listen to this audio book. you will not regret it. The Iron Sheik stories alone made this purchase worth it!

Better than I thought it would be

I wasn’t sure what to expect b/c I’ve only seen a handful of You Shoot interviews on YouTube but this was great, insightful and funny. I found myself cracking up multiple times and jumping on YouTube to watch some of the moments Sean talks about. Loved it
