I tried a bunch of ways to do it but the audio always fucks up, very sad

here is the audiobook file though you can open it with windows media player or itunes

Bob Hollys book is great if you enjoy the ins and outs of a perennial lower mid midcarder
>>
Bryan Alvarez reads his own audiobook, I really enjoyed death of WCW. Daniel Bryan's is good, jericho's third is the only one on audible and it's pretty good. They make for great semi-mindless gym listening

I've heard (audiobook) mick foleys first book, it was a good listen. My favorite parts have to be when he turned heel in ecw for the whole cane Dewey thing, the making of mr.socko, and his first meeting with Vince. The audiobook is on youtube, but I don't think it's the full book because it cuts off abruptly

Here's the link if you're interested

Foley's first two.
All of Jericho's are hilarious.
Foley's story Tietam Brown is fucked up though.
>>
>>2498854
you actually read that foley story book?
wtf is wrong w you? dead srs question
>>
>>2498846
Fantastic fucking book. I originally only picked it up as a fan, but holy shit it's a good read.
>>
>>2498854
>The book is about a period of time in the life of Antietam (Andy) Brown V and his father Antietam (Tietam) Brown IV (the names span across five generations, being taken from the Battle of Antietam). After 16 years of being tossed from foster home to foster home, and spending time in Juvenile Detention for killing a teenager who tried to rape him, his father then shows up to take him home.

>Andy was molested by his foster father, who was also a member of the KKK, and physically abused by his father. He puts up with cruel treatment from adults and older students at school. Every now and then in his life he cracks, and in a rage causes terrible harm to his tormentors. He draws strength from the love he gets from Terri, a beautiful girl in his grade at school.

What the fuck, Mick.
>>
>>2498888
I read a fuck ton of stuff and the book was honestly pretty good, if not warped. The scene where Tietam's father forces an actress dressed as the virgin Mary to suck his son's dick as his first sexual experience springs to mind.
>>
>>2498900
As I said, fucked up but honestly a good and interesting read. I've re read it a couple of times but that was years ago. I can see it from my bookshelf.
>>
>>2498904
i didn't read it, but also had the natural sense to know if it's a book by foley, not about wrestling, it's going to be pure dog shit.
each one of his books went from "i'm a hardcore legend" to "i'm a friendly old man to divas"
dude lost it

Again, it's actually very good. Brutal, but good.

I remember reading it blind and I did not see any of that fucked up shit coming. It wasn't bad honestly.

Feminist Mick Foley claims everyone wants to rape him and is a KKK member. Colour me shocked.
>>
>>2498793
Stone Cold has a book?
>>
>>2497956
Bret Hart's book is huge, but very good. Flair's book is good, a nice and easy read. Squared Circle is good, too. I've heard good things about Foley and Y2J's books, but haven't read them yet. Also hears Hardcore Holly had a good one.
>>
>>2499000
I'm sure its heavily ghost written stone cold isn't super literate.

I'm surprised only one person mentioned Bret's book so far. I've seen it get plenty of praise whenever wrestling books are discussed

All of Jericho's are great.
Foley's first two are really good. Everything else he did is shit.
Bischoff's is decent.
Hart's is good.
Hogan's is interesting early on when he talks about getting into the business, having his leg broken, etc. but turns into a pity party halfway through. 2nd half is shit.
Stone Cold's is short and bland.
Rock's is ok I guess, been a long time since I read it.
Only got partway through Bryan's because I didn't like the way it was written.

>i keep hearing bob hollys is surprisingly interesting

Really?Color me interested.
>>
>>2498900
I saw him in San Diego a few years ago, and he talked about how Santa is his biggest idol, and how he wished that the job actually existed so he could give presents to kids all the time and live in a real Rankin-Bass-esqe North Pole setting, he wasn't joking either, and asked that the audience didn't laugh, because he was being 100% real at that moment

There is no doubt that he has high-functioning brain damage
>>
>>2498944
Are you dense or drunk? Clearly I meant I read his first and didn't bother reading any others of his
