Slobberknocker: My Life in Wrestling by Paul O'Brien, Jim Ross
4.0
It has been a while since I last read a biography or autobiography, especially a wrestling one. If ever there is a life story in Wrestling to salivate over, aside from Vince McMahon, it has to be Good Ol' JR's!
A very easy going read and absolutely fantastic, covering his life and career up to 1999, the best thing with the book was JR not shying away from the negatives in both his life and career. The misfortunes that made the man.
The beauty of the book for me is that towards the end it is a trip down memory lane for myself, remmebering the matches, characters and events that left a lasting impression on me and my childhood.
If you want to read a wrestling related biography, I highly recommend this from a man who has been there and done it all. I hope there is going to be a sequel to cover the years between 1999 and today.
