He was the most vicious, bloodthirsty, reviled villain in the history of the ring. During the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, he drew record crowds everywhere he went and left a trail of burned and bloody opponents in his wake. But what those legions of fans screaming for his head never knew was that The Sheik was really Eddie Farhat. The son of Arab immigrants, Farhat served his country proudly in World War II and was fulfilling the American dream. When he wasn't screaming unintelligibly and attacking his enemies, he was busy being the owner and operator of World Wide Sports.

Take stock of your life: Based on your last 30 days of work (or marriage, or parenting), would your company rehire you? Would your partner immediately recommit to you? Would your children want you to continue to be their parent? The easy answer is, "Absolutely!" But it's probably not the honest answer. Your life might read like a success story, and your parents and friends might even think you have it all figured out, but you have a secret: You feel out of place in your own life. You'd rather binge-watch Netflix than think about what's next. You're living on autopilot.

A man's passion of the squared circle
My first take after listening to the audiobook? Perez's passion for professional wrestling is off the charts. He is proud of being an early trailer blazer for intergender matches, highlighted by facing Alissa Flash (Cheerleader Melissa).
Along his journey, the undersized grappler crossed paths with the likes of Marty Jannetty, Rikishi and his stinkface, Hacksaw Jim Duggan, Jerry "The King" Lawler, CM Punk, Rey Mysterio, and the Dudley Boys. He is open about his WWE experiences, including a missed opportunity. Perez takes a look at the recent trends in wrestling, and how the industry has changed, and shares his personal wrestling stories.

what I dislike is that, for me, the only thing that is holding me back from being a pro wrestler is money. I have no one to help me out. other than that, it's a great read and I am determined to pursue my dream of being a pro wrestler.
