This is easily the most fun I've had reading anything about pro wrestling.

I've been a fan of the sport for the better part of 21 years. During that time, I've sat through some of the most painful garbage that has ever been given the opportunity to be on television. However, that's part of being a fan of this ridiculous form of entertainment. It's just as much fun to watch the stuff that actually "works" as it is to bitch about the stuff that sucks.

That's probably why the guys that run Wrestlecrap.com are so successful. They've managed to build a popular website that is dedicated to poking fun at the "sport". Not only have they created a substantial internet presence, they've written 3 books about the industry. The Book of Lists is the 3rd entry and is just as excellent as the first two.

R.D. Reynolds and Blade Braxton cover such important topics as the "Most Pointless Additions to the nWo", "The Worst Gimmicks of all time", "The Most Non-Sensical Celebrities To Appear At WrestleMania", "The Most Filthy Sounding Wrestling Names of All Time", and my personal favorite "The Most Ridiculous Wrestling Moves of All Time". For anyone who knows anything about pro-wrestling, Reynolds and Braxton's description of Scotty 2 Hotty's "Worm" finisher is flat out hilarious.

I do the bulk of my reading an hour or two before I hit the hay each night and 9 times out of 10, my wife is laying sleeping beside me. This is by far, the hardest book I've ever had to read and at the same time, remain totally silent. I can't tell you how often I had to bite my tongue to keep myself from laughing; it was just that good.
