Sports Publishing LLC Slobberknocker: My Life in Wrestling

Where to begin? JR weaves an awesome tale of his history in the business, with the classic era of Mid-South Wrestling being a particular highlight. Filled with humorous anecdotes from his time on the road with some major superstars, Jim reveals all the goings-on "behind the scenes" of this great industry and takes you on a journey like no other. I highly recommend this book, particularly if you are a wrestling fan; you will love it!!

I love the background wrestling stories more than the wrestling's itself. Mr. Ross always have been best for this business and I don't see anyone who could carry 80's and 90's flag better than him as a producer. Let's be witness once again the wrestling history with his perspective by get in his book.

this book here is a slobberknocker, King! bah gawd!

The best thing about this book is that you hear every word in JR's voice crystal-clearly in your head. It's really written how he sounds. Complete with the witty one-liners you'd expect, some you wouldn't, but all hilarious nonetheless and very fun to read. The chapters are short, so it's easy to pick up and put down periodically. The most interesting material covered in this book is his time with Bill Watts in Mid South Wrestling, that is definitely the strongest part of the book. You will form a new understanding of both JR and Watts and the potential Mid South had to be a true contender in the national spotlight. It also covers his first 6 years in WWE, but I wasn't as impressed by those stories. His devotion to the wrestling business is absolutely irrefutable and there's very few people alive today that remain committed on that stratospheric level.

To hear the story behing JR's journey to the WWE is a story of passion, grit and struggle. A must read !
