The Pro Wrestling scene, as told by someone who was actually there!
Wrestling fans, especially ones who grew up watching Gary Cappetta ring announcing for WWWF CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING and WWWF ALL STAR WRESTLING will enjoy this account of the in ring as well as backstage pro wrestling scene. This book covers Gary's WWWF years, years working with independent promotions, as well as his WCW years. Travel down the road with Gary as he recounts being on the road with wrestlers who would later become major WWE superstars, such as Steve Williams (Stone Cold Steve Austin,), Mark Calloway (The Undertaker) and Mick Foley (Mankind, Dude Love, & Cactus Jack.) If you've ever wondered "Whatever happened to Gary Cappetta", as I did for many years, this book fills in all the voids! Gary's book speaks volumes!

I had never heard of Capetta before this book. Maybe because he was never a front and center wrestler. I think that this makes this a different type of wrestling book because of his unique perspective. If you read lots of wrestler books, this is a great change of pace.
