Foley's first 2 are great, but the second one kind of goes off on rants every now and then. I started his third one and didn't like it.

I love Bret Hart's book. His family is pretty messed up. He does put himself over quite a bit, but he seems to be quite honest with himself. If you're one of those "I hate Bret hart" guys you won't like his self praising, but you'll enjoy the stories he has. The best parts are before he wins the world title. Wrestlers did some pretty messed up things in the 80s.

For Christmas gifts over the years I've received Hogan's first one, Goldberg's, and Eddie's. I read the first two and they were pretty bad.

Jericho's first book was so good that my wife actually read it and she doesn't care about wrestling. She has a general idea of what's going on since I watch it, but she doesn't watch any wrestling programming. I can't wait to get his second.

I have Edge's and it's decent. I like that he kept it short. It's a little project he took on when he was healing from neck surgery. It's a decent weekend read.

I really don't have any interest in any other wrestling autobiographies though. Most just seem like they're putting themselves over one way or another.
