Where's the middle ground?,
By
This review is from: The Professional Wrestling Trivia Book (Paperback)
I originally picked up this book at the library along with a large stack of other books on professional wrestling in order to help me write a research paper. My biggest complaint was that most sections were so obscure that even the biggest wrestling fans would have trouble answering the questions. Other sections, however, were so ridiculously easy that my dad, who is a casual fan at best, was able to answer every one of them. It could have used another level of difficulty between the super easy and the super hard.

Pro wrestling may be fake, but this book isn't!,

This review is from: The Professional Wrestling Trivia Book (Paperback)
How much does Haystacks Calhoun weigh? Who defeated Buddy Rogers to win his first WWF Title? What caused Superstar Billy Graham to retire for good? Don't know - Then it time to read this book and find the answers.Every sport, every subject in fact has some sort of trivia book and each is design to stump you. This book does that but at the same time it entertains, just like the Professional Wrestling entertains. This book is written for a specific genre of people, as are most books we read. While Professional Wrestling maybe considered fake, there is no doubt as to the reality of the people include in this book. I have been a fan of Professional Wrestling for over 25 years, and yes it is fake, it's still very entertaining. The price tag won't put your wallet in a full nelson and this book makes a great gift.
