Stranglehold by former AWA wrestling announcer and personality Larry Nelson is one of professional wrestling's obscure treasures. Amazon.com is the exclusive source for remaining copies of this limited edition collectors item. This self-published and promoted piece was lost in the shadows of higher-budget, glossier rasslin' publications when released in 2001. Amazingly, used copies of Stranglehold have sold for as much as $27 on e-Bay. Get yours NEW, while they last, for less than ten bucks!.
This is a fun read. Very short book with a lot of interesting stories about Larry's days in the AWA wrestling organization. I would have given this 4 stars, but question the truthfulness of some of the stories.
This is the second time I've read this book. The historical inaccuracies in the book is pretty bad, but there are still some good stories that former AWA announcer Larry Nelson tells. For a more in depth review, go to my blog page. www.lancewrites.wordpress.com
