WRESTLING BABYLON: Piledriving Tales of Drugs, Sex, Death, and Scandal – Irvin Muchnick’s book about pro wrestling behind the scenes — is rated “a must-have” by columnist Sean Radican in Pro Wrestling Torch.
Radican calls the book “a frank and honest look at how wrestling operates,” “a satisfying mix of factual evidence and sharp humor,” and “harrowing.” Muchnick’s revealing writings about figures such as Vince McMahon, Hulk Hogan, the Von Erichs, and Jimmy “Superfly” Snuka will, the reviewer hopes, spur media and government “to shed their veil of ignorance when it comes to steroids in pro wrestling and professional sports.”
