If you want to read a good book about professional wrestling, I would read books written by Chris Jericho, Mick Foley and now Al Snow. There are a large number of interesting stories and anecdotes by Al from his wrestling career. (Frankly, some of them are pretty gross– –especially some of the “ribs” that wrestlers pull on each other.)

Al wrestled for the WWE, WCW and ECW as well as many independent wrestling organizations. Al also has some interesting stories and observations about various superstars including The Undertaker, Ric Flair, Vince McMahon, The Rock, Hulk Hogan, Eric Bischoff, Dixie Carter, CM Punk etc. If Al did not like a particular wrestler or wrestling owner, Al does not pull any punches.

The book is an excellent guide for anyone considering a career in professional wrestling. Al was a mentor in the Tough Enough wrestling series and he has some interesting stories about that experience.

Well written, Humorous in parts. Very candid.

Self Help: Life Lessons from the Bizarre Wrestling… von Al Snow

As an old-school wrestling fan I enjoyed the hell out of this book. Al has a wealth of stories from his decades holding multiple jobs in the business. At times I think he's a bit hard on himself--there's a difference between holding yourself responsible for your own mistakes and feeling as if you're responsible for the entire world--but his honesty about his own choices makes for fascinating reading. I heartily recommend this.
