DRAWING HEAT THE HARD WAY: How Wrestling Really Works
– Release Date: September 2009 / Author: Larry Matysik / Publisher: ECW Press
--- “Very interesting front to back as the author describes, from his perspective, how the wrestling business really works, and how the McMahons have managed to become the only company who matter when it comes to pro wrestling and the general public. Recommended.” – Rich Tate
CHRIS AND NANCY: THE True Story of the Benoit Murder-Suicide & Pro Wrestling’s Cocktail of Death
– Release Date: November 2009 / Author: Irvin Muchnick / Publisher: ECW Press
--- “Incredible retelling of the tragic story, with all its odd twists and bizarre turns. The actions of no one are spared, with the exception of Nancy and young Daniel Benoit, as Muchnick recounts the events as they played out before your very eyes in the media, and then turns to what he has discovered since everyone moved onto other scandalous events or simply tuned back into wrestling without a second thought. Although it often appears as though the author is playing conspiracy theorist, clearly alleging cover-ups took place along the way, it is hard to argue with some of the holes he has found in his investigation and research. Highly recommended for anyone willing to relive the horrific events to find out what was overlooked during the official investigation and see who is or who isn’t talking anymore.” – Rich Tate
