I was thinking about how I've known who Bobby 'the Weasel/Brain' Heenan is for 30 years.

As is to be expected from one of the most colorful personalities in the history of wrestling, The Brain's first book is a hilarious set of anecdotes from his years in the business. A must-read for fans of wrestling from the 80s to today.
If you are a fan of Bobby Heenan, you will enjoy this book. A quick read filled with stories about Heenan's career. Heenan discusses how he got started in the business and talks about the WWF & WCW.
Wasn't the tell-all it promised to be however it was a good read often making me laugh as Heenan himself did during his tenur with the WWE.
This is the worst of all of the wresting books I have ever read. Do not waste your time... didn't think you would. Let's hope Hitman is better because it's next on my list.
Very entertaining. He's a funny guy. I liked the background stories.
