Review of Beyond the Mat (1999) by Anonymous User — 08 Feb 2010
Hilariously outdated (the wrestling scene has changed quite a bit over the last 10 years), but the power of foresight actually kind of makes it more interesting and we might not get this kind of unprecedented access to the WWF locker rooms ever again.
From Indy hopefuls to bona fide superstars to, uh, a cracked-out Jake The Snake, Blaustein explores wrestlers at different junctures in their careers, and it's effective in providing lots of perspective into this sport.
My favorite scene might be the fabled Paul Heyman speech during the very first ECW Pay-Per-View.
