Review:

From the first few pages you can tell Evan is writing from the heart. There are some stories that revolve around Evan’s love of professional wrestling, but by no means is this a wrestling book. It’s the life of an ordinary man who continues to live an extraordinary life. He doesn’t sugarcoat things & takes us on his journey through the peaks & valleys. There are stories that are profoundly sad, that will break your heart. Other stories are uplifting & will put a smile on your face. You will remember this book long after you finish reading it.
