The Reverend Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Ok - so we have a thread already for wrestling books, but in this one I'd like to discuss who or what you'd like to see books about. For me the dream (which sadly will never happen) is a warts and all autobiography from Vince McMahon. I'd also like to see an autobiography from Kevin Von Erich. The Von Erichs are such a massive part of wrestling history, but their story hasn't really been told in print. It would also be good to see a history of Texas wrestling done in a similar style to the Stampede book. And I'd also like to see the WWE throw open their archives for a photo book of rare and unusual pics from over the years. Think of all the great unseen promo and live photos that they must have. Over to you - what would you like to see in print? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otto Dem Wanz Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I've always thought a good idea for a coffee table style hardback (like the WWE 50 or 30 years of Wrestlemania ones) is a big anthology of match graphics all displayed in chronological order. Like pages and pages of these, doing volumes according to time period and/or type of event: Â May as well throw in some bonuses from matches that never happened like this too while you're at it: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnotherCrapUsername Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 Would love to see a warts and all bio of Vince McMahon. I still harbour a hope that he's been writing it for years and it's going to be released on his death. I'd really like an honest Triple H and Undertaker book. I'd be happy for them both to be released as a trilogy to really explore their careers. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fill it with the graphics too and you're onto a winner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Reverend Posted November 1, 2018 Author Share Posted November 1, 2018 Jake Roberts has apparently been writing a book - it could be interesting to hear his stories.....if he can remember them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Keith Houchen Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 I look forward to the back warts and all autobiographical tome from Snitsky explaining how he wasn’t responsible for certain events. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Blog Posted November 1, 2018 Share Posted November 1, 2018 The Miz would be a good one. Especially if he went into details of the hazing and such like. I imagine he has a great story to tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He goes into a lot of backstage stuff and tells how Vince disapproved of him and Steph. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
