Has anyone got and read Chris Jericho's book yet?
If so, what did you think of it?

I picked it up and am reading it...it's a nice read, detailing his youth to getting into the sport and his ventures in Canada, Mexico and Japan...currently he's in Japan with the WAR promotion, and that's as far as I've gotten...I'm really enjoying it, it's a nice read.

just got done reading it and it has just passed Dynamite Kid's book as my favorite wrestling book written. Can't wait for the sequel to come out, I won't ruin it for anyone who hasn't read it yet but there is gonna be a second book.

About 2/3's done. Excellent book. Nice short chapters make for easy reading on the crapper.
Main thing I've learned - Mil Mascaras and Vampiro are as big of douchbags as josharpie.

Mils must be a big douchebag in a lot of people's eyes.  In Foley's book, he thinks so too. Maybe he needs a major kick in the balls. |

I just finished it five minute ago. Good read. I look forward to the next one since his WWF debut was one of my favorite moments. |

I have to put this one up there with Have a Nice Day. I like reading about a wrestler who is about my age, and was into a lot of the same things I was growing up. Hopefully we won't have to wait to long for the WWE years.

I just checked out a copy of this book from the library down the street. They just put it back on the shelf so I decided I should probably grab it and I'll start reading this tonight.

I just finished reading "A Lion's Tale" this morning. I really think it ranks among the best (and the funniest) wrestling biographies that I've read in the last couple of years. Since I didn't know much about Jericho before his time in WCW, I liked reading about his time wrestling in places such as Mexico, Germany, SMW, Japan, and ECW. Hopefully the sequel covering his time in the WWE will get published in the near future.
