FOLEY IS GOOD February 25, 2006

I love the book. Foley provides great insight into the WWE and also his own life. The tales are told in a way that you feel like you are in the ring with Mankind himself. A must read for anyone.

A must read of any wrestling fan, and an amusing read if you aren't.
While at times his amateur writing style is a little confused this is a book that is hard to put down. Mick Foley does an amazing job of detailing his life and the struggles he underwent to attain his wrestling Stardom.
I loved the fact that Mick was honest with his oppinions of other people in the wrestling field. He would give examples of why he loved someone, but would also point out major faults in the same person.
From detailing the ignorant and hateful acts of some wrestlers (ex. breaking someones leg or ankle to get them out of the business) to showing the struggles that most wrestlers go through in order to stay in the business (such as sleeping 3 or 4 in a small dirtbag hotel) he keeps you captivated with his life and the growth of wrestling from hundreds of small regions into a few large companies.

This book is truly great. It is one of the best books that WWE has released. Mick Foley has a way with words and writing that is very rare. I would recomend this book to any wrestling fan, Foley fan or not.

This was Mick Foley's first book and it is great! At times he goes into a lot of detail, perhaps too much. It was interesting to learn about his childhood, early career, marriage and family. Also, very interesting what he has to say about other wrestlers. A must read for a wrestling fan.

I picked this gem up not too long after it was released,as soon as I got home I sat down and read it from cover to cover. I was captivated by the first hand accounts of events i'd only heard about. If you haven't already I would urge any wrestling fan to run out and pick this up.
