Book on the life of Brian Pillman coming out end of October

[hb2k]

With it being a particular anniversary today, I feel it's the appropriate time to announce the upcoming release of my first book.

At the end of October, Crazy Like A Fox - The Definitive Chronicle of Brian Pillman 20 Years Later will be available on Amazon and other online retailers. The book offers the most in-depth analysis of Brian's personal and professional life ever compiled, with unheard details of his football and wrestling careers complimented by exclusive interviews with close friends and colleagues, such as:

- The Pillman family
- Dave Meltzer (Wrestling Observer Newsletter editor and close friend of Brian's)
- Kim Wood (Cincinnati Bengals strength coach, father figure to Pillman and co-creator of the Loose Cannon)
- Bruce Hart (Brian's trainer, partner in Bad Company and close friend)
- Raven (Former travelling partner, worked together in WCW and ECW)
- Jim Cornette (Booking committee member for WCW and the WWF during Brian's time in both)
- Mark Madden (Former PWTorch writer and confidant to Pillman)
- Les Thatcher (Promoter of the Pillman Memorial Shows)
- And many more...

I know there are a few Pillman fans on here, so thought it would be cool to post...

[Big Vic]

Congrats on your book! Hope you bring the podcast back!

[hb2k]

New episode this week :-)

[DaveWadding]

Yo, you're writing this? Someone on r/SquaredCircle was talking about it on the Rewind thread today. Cool.

[Sixx]

No interviews with Bret and Austin?

Odd.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Sweet!

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

How was interviewing cornette and bruce?

[Mr. Nerfect]

Congratulations on getting a book out. Onward and upwards by the sound of it. I can't wait to hear latest podcast too.

[Triple A]

Nice dude

[Triple A]

Can't seem to find the book on Amazon. Seems a shame that it isn't there for pre-order now since I'm seeing it get a lot of coverage in "the dirt sheets" today and yesterday

[Swiss Ultimate]

Good cover.

Create space doesn't really allow for that.

For those interested in picking this up (its getting great reviews, and I know our own Dale Newstead has read it for an objective take...) - Amazon code for $5 off $15 on any print book:

BOOKGIFT17

Works a charm for this book...

[Anybody Thrilla]

Good look, boss. I'll probably scoop one of these on Thursday, being a Cincinnati guy and all. :y:

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Man if Dale Newstead read it and he liked it, I'll have to buy it!

It is legit great. Liam interviewed about 7 million fucking people and through them almost made it feel like an autobiography. Very detailed, very well-written, and just really cool.

[Bad News Gertner]

Gotta finish up my Sean Avery book and my Montreal Wrestling book and I'll pick it up

Thanks for that valuable input, though.

[OwenHartFan]

Still fucked that any biography of Brian Pillman won't have Austin in there. Just seems poorly researched.

[hb2k]

Given the feedback from people far more knowledgable about the subject than yourself, I'd have to say your opinion on the matter is poorly researched.

[Big Vic]

Biography on Tommy Dreamer next plz.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Still fucked that any biography of Brian Pillman won't have Austin in there. Just seems poorly researched.

Still trying to decide whise sock you are. I am guess NormanSmiley.

[Bad News Gertner]

Yeah I'm having a hard time figuring this one out too. I'm not sure if it's a sock or what.

[Big Vic]

He was in the red yesterday and now has plus 10,000 rep.

[Destor]

im glad the book is out now maybe hb2k will stop posting his sig every time he posts

[Bad News Gertner]

Haha

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

im glad the book is out now maybe hb2k will stop posting his sig every time he posts

Hey man. Marketing is a bitch.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Still fucked that any biography of Brian Pillman won't have Austin in there. Just seems poorly researched.

Could you imagine? Itd just turn into pge long quotes about austins dog and him talking about how heel turn at X7 "was what it was"

[OwenHartFan]

Given the feedback from people far more knowledgable about the subject than yourself, I'd have to say your opinion on the matter is poorly researched.

Translation....

"Steve Austin had little or no relevance in the wrestling career of Brian Pillman."

Moron.

[Shisen Kopf]

im glad the book is out now maybe hb2k will stop posting his sig every time he posts

Yeah really. You should only post your sig if you have a kick ass sig.

[Destor]

I miss the news anchor pic

[Shisen Kopf]

Yeah I'm having a hard time figuring this one out too. I'm not sure if it's a sock or what.

It's prob Doxxing Drave82

[hb2k]

im glad the book is out now maybe hb2k will stop posting his sig every time he posts

NEVERRRR!!!

[Shisen Kopf]

I miss the news anchor pic
He's back

[Sixx]

Hm, does Amazon ship outside of the US?

I could probably find it online, but even though I read comics on my laptop I could never read a book on the computer. It just doesn't work.

[Sixx]

Damn, even if they do ship outside of US I would probably pay a fortune.

[hb2k]

Depends where you want to ship to, where are you based?

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Gonna get mad #HeelHeat with the #TPWWBoyz for posting your sig.


I like it.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Here, now we can be a heat seeking tag team.

[Destor]

I hope you get cancer

[Destor]

Penis cancer

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Man, that is the kind of heat some wrasslers dream of. I'm working you fucking marks like a bawss.

[#1-norm-fan]

It's a subtle Pillman tribute. Takes a real loose cannon to show his sig every post like a mad man.

[Destor]

Gonna go write shittt reviews on amazon

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I have spammed Amazon with nothing but 6 star reviews.

[#1-norm-fan]

We should all promote different wrestler biographies in our sigs instead of stealing Liam's gimmick completely.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I like the way you think.

[#1-norm-fan]

Time to drain the swamp of these reprobates.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

I am the lifeblood of tpww.

[Bad News Gertner]

We'll just see about that!

[Shisen Kopf]

I hope you get cancer

Nah, not cancrr...AIDS, and not just any type of AIDS, a very special type

[Shisen Kopf]

I am the lifeblood of tpww.

I am the pulse and the lifeblood of tpww. Everyone else is just a polyp on the colon of tpww

[hb2k]

Gonna go write shittt reviews on amazon

Harsh move. Delete it and I'll stop posting my sig. Deal?

[Mr. Nerfect]

I am the pulse and the lifeblood of tpww. Everyone else is just a polyp on the colon of tpww

I'm a cyst.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

Harsh move. Delete it and I'll stop posting my sig. Deal?

lol I am 100% sure Dessy won't do that

[Bad News Gertner]

Lol he's obviously not around TPWW enough.

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

OH FUCK HE DID

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

NO HE LEGIT DID LMFAO WHAT A SAVAGE

[Bad News Gertner]

Hahaha seriously?

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

[Lock Jaw]

Oh damn..... is Destor actually Glenn Jacobs/THE DEMON KANE

[Ol Dirty Dastard]

He is a Libertarian

[Mr. Nerfect]

I've been so busy over Christmas, but I'm going to try and order it sometime this week. Heard nothing but great things and I enjoyed the podcast with Matt that went into the processes.

Who cares if Liam posts his sig? He's pimping a book he wrote. When you actually do something, I think posting with your sig is fine. The only reason I don't post with mine is because I haven't done anything.

[Bad News Gertner]

I've done many things

[Sixx]

Depends where you want to ship to, where are you based?

Poland. :)

[Sepholio]

Just saw this mentioned on ESPN. Incredible.

[Mr. Nerfect]

Awesome.

[Loose Cannon]

haven't finished the book yet, but so far it's an excellent read :y:

also Pillman on ESPN :cool:
