This is an amazing book. Not too big or small it's a perfect size for storing in your collection. I love that it's hardcover. The pages are glossy and it has a really helpful legend of icons to tell you what title belt the superstar has won. I bought it only for Sting. And the wrestlers are in alphabetical order. They give you an actual picture of the superstar plus the illustration. They are really impressive. Sting looks lovely! I highly highly recommend this book. It's truly a must have. I will include a couple pictures below.
Purchased this gem for my nephew and he adores it. The pictures are fantastic and the nuggets of facts are entertaining and informative. I am actually surprised at how many entries were included, as I couldn't think of very many people who were left out. They really went above and beyond to include as many superstars, divas, and other personalities from past and present as possible.A few quick notes:1. No, Benoit is not included. You know people are going to ask.2. It is in alphabetical order.3. A legend at the beginning nicely explains the icons that appears. For example, the legend shows a distinction between the different titles and accolades (such as winning the Royal Rumble). It is helpful when you land on a superstar such as Edge who has many icons under his name. Awesome idea.4. Very nice inclusion of NXT.All in all, I wouldn't be surprised if even older fans enjoyed this book but it will definitely put a smile on a youngster's face.
This book is marketed as appropriate for children. Sadly, this isn't necessarily the case. I bought this book for my 4th grade classroom because I have a number of students which are interested in the WWE. After looking through the illustrations I was surprised by not only the skimpy clothing and cleavage baring on the female illustrations and pictures, but was disgusted about the commentary next to these pictures as well. This will be returned.
My kids are obsessed with WWE, and this has been a book in regular rotation, especially my 8 year old that hates to read. The illustrations are great, and there is a good amount of text to read to get some "history" around the superstars.
My 7 and 8 year old sons love this book. I would say it’s easily worth it for any wrestling fan/collector. It’s just a really well done book with some fantastic illustrations and information. My kids have fun reading this. Highly recommend it, it’s a superb book even for kids.. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
My 11, 7, and 6yr old boys love looking through this book. It has beautiful illustrations and great info on all the current and legendary wrestlers. My friends and family love looking up their old favorites!
My son gave this book to a friend for his birthday and he loved it. It is like an encyclopedia of wrestling, and includes current stars like John Cena and guys from back in the day like the Ultimate Warrior, Junk Yard Dog, Big John Studd, etc. It has cool comic-style illustrations and photos for all the wrestlers.
I saw this book sitting in a pile of new releases and the artwork caught my attention. I thought it would be a kids book but it can be enjoyed by young & old. The first page I flipped to was an NXT star & I thought this is a pretty damn good book. I sat in the store reading it for almost half an hour before purchasing this. I've been a fan of WWE for over twenty years & this is one of the best books I've seen as it is very unique. The roster of stars from past, present, & future are well represented even though I did notice a couple superstars missing. The artwork would fit perfectly in a book about Superstars from the 90's. Highly recommend this book to young & old, well done book & I'd like them to do one over 90's superstars or an updated version.
