About this listen
The wrestling legend Bob "Hardcore" Holly tells all in this autobiography that chronicles his journey from fighting in bars for money to the bright lights of the World Wrestling Federation. Holly reveals how he took more body slams and clotheslines outside the ring than in and that long before he was known as "Hardcore Holly", he had an unquenchable passion for professional wrestling.
Ultimately, Holly would hold the World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) Hardcore Championship seven times, the WWE Tag Team Championship three times, and the National Wrestling Alliance World Tag Team Championship once. But in the midst of his career achievements was a roller coaster of success and frustration, and Holly reveals the plethora of missed opportunities and broken promises that marked his road to television stardom. Replete with fast motorcycles, faster cars, wrestling bears, betrayal, and lost love, Holly shares his uncompromised view of his past and the current state of professional wrestling.

Don't sleep on this wrestling autobiography
I enjoyed how raw and insightful this book was. Bob Holly has a hell of a story and it was great to hear it in his words.

Honest and Insightful
The book is very genuine, seemingly like the Bob Howard himself. Lots of interesting stories and insights about wrestlers I watched as a kid. 2nd half of the book becomes: ‘you know what really grinds my gears these days….”
Overall a good book that’s high on entertainment value.

it's good like warm soup but Luke warm.
Great insight on behind the wrestlers curtain. But this guy was angry... But the Narrator really pulls it to life. side note lower the speed to .80 and it's a comfortable drawl to fall asleep with.

An Absolutely Amazing Book. HIGHLY RECOMMEND
I am surprised just how great this book is. I learned so much about Bob as a wrestler and a man. I always liked him, and felt he was under utilized. I always wanted to meet the man, I really liked him growing up. I'd love to shake his hand and tell him "Thanks for the memories." He grabs you and takes you for a ride with this book. I can't recommend this book enough!
