Benoit in Ring of Hell, LarryLand Adventure
Ring of Hell: The Story of Chris Benoit and the Fall of the Pro Wrestling Industry (Hardcover)
Book Description:
In the notoriously crooked and exploitative world of professional wrestling, WWE legend Chris Benoit was supposed to be the exception. Chris was universally recognized as the best pro wrestling had to offer: a decent, humble, and devoted family man loved and admired by all who knew him. Nobody could have predicted the horrific events of June 22-24, 2007 when Chris strangled his wife and seven-year old son before committing suicide. RING OF HELL is the true story of Benoit’s journey through the destructive, dysfunctional, and bizarre pro wrestling industry and the catastrophic physical and mental breakdown that led to his grisly end.

Adventures in Larryland!: Life in Professional Wrestling (Paperback)
Product Description
Wrestling’s self-proclaimed “Living Legend? may never wear a championship belt again, but he’s definitely not down for the count, as this memoir shows in its entertaining, often hilarious story of a remarkable ascent to wrestling notoriety. Voted Rookie of the Year in 1974, Larry Zbyszko enjoyed 30 glorious years as a top draw in the wild and wacky world of professional wrestling. Attendance records were shattered when he wrestled the original “Living Legend,? Bruno Sammartino, in 1980 and won by hitting his former mentor with a chair—a rarity at the time. Chronicling Zbysko’s transformation from baby-faced hero to one of the most hated wrestlers of his time, this uninhibited narrative reveals an insider’s view of some of the most successful and controversial stories and scandals in pro-wrestling history.
