This is the true story of pro wrestling's overlooked legend. It chronicles the rags to almost-riches journey of Lynn "The Grappler" Denton. A star of pro wrestling's territorial era, Denton worked alongside the biggest names of the 1980s. Readers will learn about his adventures with ring icons such as Roddy Piper, Ric Flair and Harley Race. In addition, 'Grappler' features previously untold stories involving Bill Goldberg, Junkyard Dog, Ted Dibiase, Rick Rude, Curt Hennig and countless others.

Grappler: Memoirs of a Masked Madman | Roddy Piper, Lynn Denton, Joe Vithayathil, Grappler

This was a fun memoir about a guy breaking into wrestling and become a legend on the indie scene over the late 70s to early 90s. The author keeps things fun and light in tone throughout. I think it helped that he seemed to avoid some of the pitfalls that destroy other wrestlers‘s lives such as drug and alcohol addiction. If you like/love wrestling, you‘ll enjoy this. If you don‘t, then there are probably better uses for your time!
