There are plenty of books on the market about pro wrestling history. I’ve written several, and I’m hardly done with the past. Truthfully, we’ve only scratched the surface, and there’s so much more ground to cover.
But in the last year, I’ve released three books about indie wrestling:
We Are Grindhouse – A year long, behind the scenes look at a pro wrestling school.
Eat Sleep Wrestle Repeat – A collection of indie wrestler interviews and profiles.
Eat Sleep Wrestle Tonight – A collection of recaps and memories from over a decade of wrestling shows.
I know you indie fans are readers as well. Outside the Hall of Fame events I’ve attended, the most books I ever sold were at a Deathmatch tournament. I kid you not! I nearly sold out of everything in West Virginia at Masters of Pain – an event covered in Eat Sleep Wrestle Tonight!
So, indie wrestling readers, which book is right for you?
Well, this is hardly comprehensive, but here’s what I’d recommend:
Choose We Are Grindhouse if you’re a fan of:
- Grindhouse Pro Wrestling

Choose Eat Sleep Wrestle Repeat if you are a fan of:

Of course, I’m not going to stop you if you want to order all three. Far from it. In fact, I’d suggest you use the coupon code “summer” for an extra 20% off.
You do need some summer reading, right? Might as well read about a subject you love. Like Shaloncé. You DO love Shaloncé, right?
