I was trying to get opinions on this book, but it's brand spanking new and no one has read it yet. I may pick it up down the road. I went with the re-release of Hooker by Lou Thesz and also the re-release of Gary Hart's My Life In Wrestling.

Crowbar Press has published a lot of wrestling books and although I've never order (just keep putting it off) they stories they post on their site from the book seem great. He's been around for a while and with Tough Enough we got to see a different side to him. As a he was the enhancement talent guy who was so good he made the new stars look good with him losing the match. As a trainer we saw a tough veteran who didn't have an a show to make anyone an overnight sensation yet he did have a nicer side as evident with contenstant Christina.
I think sometimes the fact that trainers like he and Bob Holly didn't make it to the main event often overshadows the fact that they put in so much hard work to make their opponent look good for so many years. It's easy to look at them on Tough Enough and see a bully but they didn't have a show like Tough Enough to make them, they had to earn it even more.
I read some chapters like Invasion and Tough Enough and it looks good. I've been a Hugh Morris fan a long time so I like anything he's involved with.

Pretty cool that the 'Crash The Terminator' gimmick is used on the cover, sounds like a good read.

You couldn't pay me enough to read a book written by a lifetime JOBBER. PLEASE get him off my television ASAP.

The last laugh? Is that title supposed to be funny? Is it HUGH MORRIS? WHAT?
