Inside Out: How Corporate America Destroyed Professional Wrestling
Description: Ole Anderson just might be wrestling's most bitter son of a bitch ever. But he DOES make many good points. His perspective on the direction wrestling took in the 90s is straight to the point. He has been a part of every aspect imaginable, from jobber to main eventer, from booker to promoter to owner to executive producer, so he has seen it all..... and now tells it all!
Ole is a man's man, and continually stands up for what he believes in. A lot of people stood idle and watched the wrestling industry go down the toilet and didn't say anything. Ole took a stand but the evolution of the sport was too powerful. I have a lot of respect for Ole Anderson after reading this book; For his accomplishments IN and OUT of the ring.
Ole Anderson's attitude is summed up in one of his most famous quotes "If I had realized that you people would be so damned stupid as to give the world champion $750,000, just because we made him the world champion, I would have made myself the champion!" as said to a WCW executive.
