Clocking up more than a million miles a year as they travel from venue to venue, the Superstars of the WWE have more road trip stories to tell than they have frequent flier miles. In this eye-popping insight into life on the road you can share their experiences and read all about their encounters, as Robert Caprio chronicles misadventures both hilarious and bizarre. From restraining drunken and abusive airline passengers, to the vagaries of hotel plumbing, to the hazards of hitchhikers who suddenly decide they would rather ride naked, the trials of non-stop travel make for a wonderfully entertaining collection of stories. Being a WWE Superstar is a job which keeps them on the road for more than 240 days a year and separates them from their families for long stretches of time; but at the same time it lets them see parts of the world many never dreamed they would visit. In this book which captures all the flavour of the peripatetic lifestyle, a host of top WWE Superstars reveal their fondest memories and their tallest tales.

Synopsis coming soon.......

Ted DiBiase, known to his fans as 'The Million Dollar Man', is considered by many to be the greatest 'heel' wrestler of all time. Raised around the wrestling ring from childhood, he has been involved in wrestling all his life, learning early on that triumph could lead to tragedy when his stepfather, the well-remembered 'Iron Mike' DiBiase, sensationally died in the ring. When the WWE created the Million Dollar Man character for him, DiBiase played the role to the hilt, surrounding himself with money, limousines and all the luxuries that went along with life in the fast lane. Among the most flamboyant wrestlers of the 1980s, he rapidly rose to the top of his profession, where he remained for twenty years. Sidelined by a neck injury he began a second career as a manager, working with some of the biggest stars in wrestling, from Andre the Giant, Bam Bam Bigelow and King Kong Bundy to a newcomer known as The Ringmaster -- who would later become Stone Cold Steve Austin. Only recently ending his WWE career, DiBiase has seen many of the biggest Superstars rise to fame and, in some cases, disastrously fall.Now, in this fascinating book, he steps back and gives readers a full and frank first-hand account of what he saw and experienced over three action-packed decades.
