Delivering an inside account of one of wrestling's most
famous fighters, this autobiography offers a rare chance
to learn about Joe "Animal" Laurinaitis's life both inside
and outside the ring. Revealing riveting stories about his
participation in the 1980s and 1990s superstar wrestling
team the Road Warriors, it recounts memorable fights with
his partner Mike "Hawk" Hegstrand. He describes how he and Mike rose to become a

accessories and wearing face paint before it was popular--
and chronicles famous rivalries, movement between
different wrestling associations, and dealing with Mike's
longtime struggle with drugs and alcohol. He also invites
fans into his personal life and discusses his family and
newfound Christian faith. Featuring stories of incredible physical feats and deep-
felt companionship, this testimony will help fans relive
the glory days of a wrestling legacy.
