Wrestling Fans Can Read?


So, three books are due to be released in October. We have Batista: "Unleashed", we have Bret Hart: "Hitman" and we have Chris Jericho: "A Lions Tale". For some wrestling fans, a busy month for reading. Personally the only one of these books I'm interested in is Jericho's...why would I want to listen to Bret Hart put himself over and whine about how Shawn, Hunter and Vince screwed him? And uh...I didn't know Batista could even speak English, let alone write it down. I'd be surprised if he spelt his own name correctly. Although...he probably just talked into a tape recorder and had someone else do the actual writing for him. Oh, the hard life that man must lead.
Now, although I'm sure Chris Jericho's book is the most interesting of these three...why does it have the most shit-tastic cover in wrestling autobiography history? It looks like he made it himself on Microsoft Paint, and this is professional designing, for a book about a millionnaire with a somewhat celebrity status? I've seen better designs advertising a coffee morning on the notice board in the local Supermarket. Le Sigh.
