Rating: Summary: The Weasel Review: While I am not much of a fan of modern wrestling, Bobby Heenan is perhaps my all time favorite in the business. Heenan was a great entertainer, though not a full time wrestler. In his days with the WWF, his quick jibes always got a laugh out of me.In his book, Heenan tells the story of his life and journey through wrestling. While their is no real "dirt" in the book, Heenan's humor is as sharp as it is on the television. Some of the stories are hilarious and give real insight into the business. Heenan also talks about his personal life including growing up without a father and finding his long lost family members only a few years ago. These images give insight as to the real man that is not the character played on camera. Heenan is currently battling cancer but maintains excellent odds of recovery. I hope that he can bring the weasel character back to the television again and live a long life.
Rating: Summary: i love the brain but not his book! Review: wrestling fans save your money! i'm a big bobby heenan fan, but just can't recommend this book. it's PONDEROUS to read and other than one or two wisecracks, the brains personality just doesn't show here. doesn't give much detail and you get the impression it was written very quickly.
Rating: Summary: Absolutley Awesome ... Review: You get an inside look at one of the best minds, best personalities, and overall best men in the history of wrestling. Not only will you get a new respect for the sacrifices made in the world of wrestling, but you will also get a glimpse into the life of the Brain ... a book that definitley must be read by all ...
