Jon RobinsonRumble Road: Untold Stories from Outside the Ring (WWE)

To be WWE fanatic, you have to be involved in the action, including what goes on outside the ring. To have them share some their stories outside their world is pretty awesome. As you read, you wouldn't believe some of things could happen. Also, Randy shares his perspective on whether wrestling is fake or not. To read their stories makes me respect them for the sacrifice they made to entertain us.I highly recommend this if you want to know what its like being on the road like WWE Superstar and Diva.

This book has some great stories. Awesome book in perfect condition fast shipping responded to questions in a timely manner Item as described will highly recommend doing business with thank you

Rumble Road offers fans a glimpse inside the lives of WWE Superstars on the road. From pranks to travel mishaps to roadside catastrophes, WWE Superstars share their experiences in what some of them refer to as their "real jobs": traveling.The book was good but faulted. While it had many entertaining and funny stories, there were also a few boring, pointless stories which probably should have been cut. It was also too short. I read it in about three hours on Kindle, which makes the digital price a little steep (Bret Hart's autobiography was the same price and it took me about 15 hours to finish).Despite its shortcomings, Rumble Road is an entertaining collection of road stories that will make fans laugh and appreciate what it means to be a WWE Superstar.

Perfect!!!

This was... interesting, for one it gives the same insight its predecessor 'Are We There Yet' did in terms of life on the road for the WWE Superstars and Divas... but yet, the stories weren't as good. There are a few gems (such as Mickie James having to be pulled out of a ditch... and some awkward sleeping arrangements with the Hart Dynasty) but then there are some tales that just seem mundane.

Always interesting to read about behind the scenes. Its not as glamouris as you think. You have to feel for them. Love the freindship and humour that is always in this booksd, make you laugh out loud and wanting more.

I was a huge wrestling fan a few years ago. I liked to the wrestlers books and I bought "are we there yet?," when it came out. I don't even watch wrestling anymore but I decided to get this book because I loved "are we there yet?"This book is good and it is humorous and a wwe fan will like it.Because I am no longer an avid wwe watcher I don't have the same passion about wrestling as I once did. I didn't get that same feeling reading this book as I did "are we there yet?" I think this book is okay and I like it so I give it 4/5

As a WWE fan, I read "Are We There Yet?" when it first came out, and I really enjoyed it.But "Rumble Road" is just bad. The stories barely qualify as stories. These are mostly the types of stories that you've all had friends tell you in real life; the ones that at the end, the teller is laughing and saying, "You had to be there," while everyone else is thinking, "What's your point?"Most of these stories wouldn't make it past the pre-writing stage in my fourth grade classroom.In the words of Steve Martin's character in "Planes, Trains, and Automobiles," "...When you're telling these little stories, here's a good idea: have a point. It makes it so much more interesting for the listener!"These stories do not have a point, and they aren't interesting to a reader.

great easy read. lots of fun lighthearted content with the odd little snippet that made me think REALLY? laughed out loud on quite a few occassions.

Wer ein absoluter Wrestlingfan ist und wissen will, wie denn das Leben als Wrestlingstar ist, wenn sie denn mal nicht im Ring stehen, sondern von Ort zu Ort fahren, dann ist das hier das beste Werk, was man in die Finger bekommen kann, und das muss man einfach sagen.Es ist unglaublich, wie einfach das Buch trotz der englischen Sprache zu lesen ist, und Unklarheiten werden aus dem Zusammenhang schnell erkenntlich. Also da muss man den Autoren dieses Buches wirklich vielen Dank aussprechen, denn was sie damit gezaubert haben, das ist unglaublich.Dann ist es einfach mal interessant zu erfahren, wie denn die Superstars wirklich von Ort zu Ort kommen, denn so werden sie nicht in einem Tourbus der WWE durch die Gegend gefahren, sondern müssen sich selber drum kümmern wie sie denn mit wem zum nächsten Ziel kommen, und so ist es amüsant zu erfahren, wer denn nun mit wem unterwegs ist, was denn die Superstars nun unterwegs alles machen und was es heißt in einem "ordentlichen" Hotel unterzukommen - und wie man sich gegenseitig ärgert um die Zeit zu vertreiben. Es ist wunderbar gestaltet wie man die Superstars zu verschiedenen Oberbegriffen sprechen lässt, und wie man dadurch eine noch menschlichere und angenehmere Seite dieser Muskelprotze erkennen kann.Für Fans, egal ob von der WWE oder von Independent-Shows, ein absolutes muss, und es wird auch kein Blatt vor den Mund genommen, und das ist einfach ein absolues Leseerlebnis für jeden, selbst für die, die keine Meister der englischen Sprache sind.Besonders gut gemacht ist das Design des Buches, denn so hat man dieses wirklich mit gut gewählten Bildern versehen und die neuen Teile wie in einer Art Landkarte zusammengestellt - man kann über das Buch nur träumen, und es hat mich so gefesselt, dass ich selbst im Unterricht nicht widerstehen konnte und es aufschlagen und weiterlesen musste, ganz einfach da es nicht nur authentisch, sondern voller Überzeugung an der Sache geschrieben wurde, und das muss man einfach anerkennen, und der Dank gebührt nicht nur den Superstars, sondern auch den Autoren und der WWE für so etwas Amüsantes, DANKE DANKE DANKE!!!!

Interesting stories from the wrestlers and some backstories. Would only recommend for die-hard wrestling fans, others may not be interested or may not get some inside jokes or references.

Sehr amüsant geschrieben und einige Passagen wo man sich das Lachen zurückhalten muss. Buch hätte ruhig mehr Geschichten haben können.

This book has some interesting stories but unfortunately it is very much a product of the modern era of WWE.In other words it is very child friendly and to older wrestling fans it might be a little tame. Not to completely tarnish it because it does have some good stories but it could do with a bit more meat on the bones.There is certainly no Ric Flair or Roddy Piper type road stories in it which would be compelling reading.
