Maggiori informazioni sul libro
In his candid and insightful memoir, Bret Hart shares a vivid account of his life within the pro wrestling world. As the sixth son of the renowned Hart wrestling dynasty, he became a Canadian icon, initially pursuing amateur wrestling before joining his family's promotion, Stampede Wrestling. Throughout his career, Hart maintained an audio diary that chronicles the unique experiences of a wrestler, including the relentless travel, practical jokes, and the complex realities behind rivalries. His journey to superstardom in pink tights saw him winning numerous championships across various promotions, including WWF and WCW. However, this success came at a cost, marked by betrayals, tragic losses—most notably the death of his brother Owen—and personal struggles, including a severe stroke linked to a concussion. Hart, celebrated for his technical prowess, views wrestling as a blend of dance, acting, and physicality, taking pride in never seriously injuring a fellow wrestler while delivering thrilling performances. He also reflects on the heavy toll the industry exacts on its participants, with many wrestlers, including his brother-in-law Davey Boy Smith, succumbing to the pressures of drugs and alcohol. Hart's narrative offers a rare and profound perspective on the wrestling world, revealing both its beauty and its darker sides.
