Best Seat in the House: Your Backstage Pass Through My Wwe Journey by Justin Roberts

blacksentai's review

1.0

I just thought this book was poorly written all around. None of it really worked for me. I think Justin Roberts is not as sympathetic a narrator as he believes he is.

I really enjoyed the book, as he described his love of wrestling and wanting to be involved in wrestling but not as a wrestler, he went on to describe the gruelling work schedule and what they did on the road, he also went about bullying and stuff you don't see about WWE, but by the end he just seemed to rant about the same things over and over and he was just complaining so got abit hard to read at the end

Used to watch the WWE not a massive fan such as when I was a child and teen but meh, ok entertainment. I know it’s one persons opinion but Justin really exposes the business, more specifically Triple H, Micheal Cole, and Vince McMahon for the true scum bags they really as well as JBL. The book was a easy, fun read and interesting but changed my mind and I got rid of all my WWE DVDs and books.

Thanks Justin for your honesty when they bullied you and WWE sadly you lost me!

2.5 stars.
Amazing book if you’re a wrestling fan, and fascinating insight into WWE, but terrible grammar, punctuation and typos throughout...at least Justin Roberts can say he didn’t have a ghost writer.
If I wasn’t a wrestling fan this would probably be a one or two star.
