Then, in front of 33 million fans, Earl debuted on WWF's most-watched event ever as the evil twin ref who stole Hulk Hogan's title. As WWE senior official, he played an integral part in "The Montreal Screwjob", calling an unplanned controversial finish that screwed Bret Hart out of his championship for real. For four decades, he worked with the biggest names and banners everywhere, including TNA: Impact and AEW. Read The Official Story now!

The AI reader is absolutely awful.

The stories were great but the mispronunciations of so many words was atrocious. There were times I had to stop and figure out what they meant.

Using virtual voice, I did not like. Mispronouncing, WWE and AEW Was very frustrating

Did not like the ai reading. I don't like hearing books of no. Emotion, I rather hear someone. Read it themselves if it's not the author

AI reading is just awful

The story was good but the AI reading was terrible. So many words mispronounced or just wrong. Made me say many times what? Until I figured out what/who it was talking about. Calling AEW ewe and the legendary JR jr? Just awful

Was the Montreal screwjob a work?

Earl Hebner, who will be best remembered as the referee for the infamous Montreal screwjob, has many great wrestling stories in his official story.

Hebner also address the many conspiracy theories associated with the Screwjob finish. Was it all an elaborate work?

Hebner is honest in his official story tell out book, praising those he enjoyed working with, but also calling out those he didn't.

Hebner talks about why he didn't originally want to go to TNA, and what ultimately made his change his mind. Trust me, this is a must have wrestling book!

The best ref writes the best book

I hope more and more behind the scenes wrestling books keep coming out they’re just the best

Please have a real person redo the narration. The AI screwed up so many wrestling words…the One Twenty Three Kid, AEW was turned into a sound. It was awful, Earl deserves better. The publisher screwed Earl
