Finished Bob Backlund's book the other week. Backlund sticks to his life in wrestling with a little bit about his family, but doesn't get too personal. His years away from wrestling aren't discussed in any real detail. He makes the observation that he was the first babyface world champion under the McMahons who worked the more NWA-friendly beatable champ style. Most interesting are the details on Vince Senior orchestrating Backlund's main event push and issues with Superstar Billy Graham's reluctance to drop the WWWF title. Superstar actually discovered Backlund in the first place and suggested that he give the business a try, so he really felt bad for him when Graham went down to depression and drugs. I also liked reading about the differences in Backlund working champion vs. champion matches against Harley Race and Ric Flair. He talks about refusing to turn heel in the Hogan era, but really enjoyed the thought he put into his WWF heel run in the early '90s. Other stories include the Funks, Eddie Graham, Ken Patera, and Antonio Inoki's futile efforts to get over with the WWWF audience. He comes off as a genuinely humble, nice guy who feels lucky to have gone as far as he did in wrestling and really appreciates the opportunities he was given. Enjoyable read, give it a look.
