THIS IS THE SECOND BOOK BY WRESTLER, COMMENTATOR AND MANAGER BOBBY HEENAN. IT IS NOT NEARLY AS GOOD AS HIS FIRST ONE, WHICH IS A VERY GOOD BOOK. THIS HAS ALOT OF OPINIONS AND INSIGHTS BY THE BRAIN. IT IS GOOD TO SEE HE IS STILL DOING OK AFTER HIS BOUT WITH CANCER A FEW YEARS BACK. IT IS JUST NOT THAT INTERESTING. I HOPE BOBBY WRITES ANOTHER ONE SOON TELLING US MORE ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCES IN THE SQUARED CIRLE. NOT A BAD READ.

Bobby Heenan was one of the greatest characters in the WWF from the mid-1980's to early 1990's. A funny guy who could use his gift of the gab to make his wrestlers look good and in later years was a humourous colour man.
This book is not a biography like his very first (classic) book, it is a self-help book that Heenan wrote after his cancer ordeal. The book itself is ok but I think that if I wanted to read self-help books, I would read one written by a qualified professional.

Bobby Heenan takes to the pages again and presents us with a self-help book. A warning to the wrestling marks, this is not a biography by Heenan. He covers phases of his life from dropping out of school after 8th grade into his career as a heel manager/wrestler and up to his retirement but in no detail covers his life. This is a self-help book through the eyes of maybe the most hated man in wrestling, keeping in mind it is the gimmick of Bobby Heenan, not the man Ray Heenan, that is hated. Heenan, using wrestling metaphors, covers instances in his life and how an average "ham-and-egger" could better themselves from his life lessons. He throws in some brief anecdotes from his career and you might laugh a few times. Overall, this book did little for me and I would have been just as well off if I hadn't read it (and $25 richer). It's readable and enjoyable mostly but Heenan is just all over the place throughout his life and it gets a bit messy, almost as if his entire career took place in 4 years. None-the-less, hardcore fans will buy it, those mark fans wanting a rundown of Heenan's professional career should skip it.

The author uses wrestling lingo as a metaphor for life. Entertaining anecdotes and stories made this a fast and funny read. This may not be a self-help book, but I never read one that made me laugh. I am sure his cancer story hit many readers nerves who have lost people or pets to that awful scourge. Mr. Heenan remains the funniest man in the history of the wrestling business.
