by Mary Jo Stresky (Editor), Jeff The Ref Coles (Author)

Children grow up with their favorite fantasy heroes like Superman, Batman, Wolverine, Spider Man, Captain America, Thor, Iron Man and the Flash. Grown-ups have their favorite real-life pro wrestling heroes such as Hulk Hogan, the Warrior, the Rock, Steve Austin, Vince McMahon, Andre the Giant, Jesse Ventura, John Cena, Roddy Piper, and Ric Flair. Have you dreamt of being part of the professional wrestling world, but didn't know where to start? Have you wanted to create your own "superhero" personna, and join the ranks of hard-working men and women who love entertaining millions of people from the ring? Do you watch the matches from your couch, and wish you knew how to work in that industry? Jeff "the Ref" Coles has spent the last 20+ years working with some of the most famous wrestlers in the history of WWE. He has ground-up experience about how to get in and stay in one of the toughest industries around the world. "It's not about all the lights, gimmicks and media attention; it's a 24/7 lifestyle where these people become your family. If you're not committed to working harder than you've ever worked before, it might not be the career for you." He tells it like it is so that you can make a well-informed decision about where to go, what to wear, the gear to buy, the way to treat your peers, the standards of ethics you should live by, and what to expect once you enter the ring. His stories and photos of his time in and around the ring with the best of the best are sure to entice you to get up off the couch and make your dream of becoming a pro wrestler come true
