"Sean has the unique ability to share the journeys of those who have sacrificed so much for pro wrestling, and he does so in a manner that evokes compassion, humor, and joy." (Justin Barrasso, Sports Illustrated)
"The stories are fascinating, mainly tear-jerking or humorous. It's a perspective never written about - until now - in stories only Sean Oliver can tell." (Bill Apter, author of Is Wrestling Fixed? I Didn't Know It Was Broken)
They were nomadic warriors, their business shrouded in secrecy. They navigated a world fraught with pitfalls. Abuse was rampant. Their world was perilous.
And they had kids.
This is the true story of pro wrestlers raising children while working the unrelenting road. All content was constructed via personal new interviews with the stars and their families. See how Sullivan, Atlas, Bischoff, Poffo, Russo, Santana, Bigelow, and more scored their most important wins and heartbreaking losses, told in a most riveting narrative style.

"the audiobook is better!"
This is a unique premise for a story (or collection of stories with a unique premise for a theme, more accurately), there are moments that will make you smile, and moments that will tug at the heart strings.
Sean is a gifted impressionist, and there are plenty of Tony Atlas, Lanny Poffo, and Tito Santana stories - draw your own conclusions.
Plus some inside stories never truly heard before including about underrated stars who simply don't have enough written about them; Gary Hart, Bam Bam Bigelow, etc.

There are revelations about certain stars in the business who enjoyed growing up who now I have a ton of respect for after hearing this story. These include JJ Dillon, Eric Bischoff, Tito Santana, and Gary Hart.
There are stories such as Sean Walkman, Bam Bam Bigelow and Tony Atlas that tug your heart strings a tad.
As a expecting father to be, I take pride that this book shows that if they can all find a away to make it work, even with the lifestyle of a wrestler, then I can too.
Check it out.
