100 Things WWE Fans Should Know & Do Before They Die

No punches pulled, you get the most you can get out of brief explanations of key events/people/etc. in the WWE timeline. If you've read Death of WCW, you know what to expect as a fan of the business. It's entertaining, informative, and simply fun. I'm only about 1/3rd of the way through and can say it has a much more general appeal potential than his previous books, and that's not to take away from it at all. One example is his Hulk Hogan portion that I found incredibly refreshing; it tells you his highs and some of his lows. When Alvarez tells a story, he'll tell you all of it in the best way he can.

Fantastic fun book

The topics are interesting for an introduction to WWE and the whacky carny business it has been for decades. It busts some myths about WWE, such as the Wrestlemania 3 attendance, the origin of the WWE title, the Montreal Screwjob, etc but does have editing errors such as calling the Bret Hart vs Steve Austin Wrestlemania 13 match an 'I Quit' match in one section and a 'Submission' match in another, saying Roman Reigns vacated the WWE title while fighting cancer when it was the Universal title. These are superficial to the overall story but clear inconsistencies in the book. There are also issues for switching back and forth between saying WWF and WWE in sections with no explanation until the section on the name change. Overall it's a quick read with Alvarez's ranting style in full effect.

My grandson loved this.

My wrestling loving son enjoyed reading this book!

Bryan Alvarez has written another great book to add to any wrestling fan’s collection. He is able to give you the most important and influential information that every WWE fan needs know. Not only that, but he writes in such away that makes everything easy to understand and relatable. Definitely worth the read and a must-have book.

While it didn't give me a ton of new information, I really enjoyed the format of this book. I am glad I purchased it, and I would recommend it to anyone wanting an overview of WWE history.

Book is poorly written, repetitive, all over the place, and not very informative. I was looking forward to reading this book and getting a deeper look into the inner workings of the WWE, WWE superstars and notorious events that have taken place. I was incredibly disappointed. This book is anything but deep and in my opinion barely scratches the surface of most subjects written about. My advice: just google specific topics or superstars you are interested in learning about. It’s free and you’ll learn a lot more from google than you will from this book.
