With their signature mix of original research, interviews, and anecdotes, they describe the rise and development of wrestling’s bad guys, from riots in small-town arenas in the 1920s to the mega-event pay-per-views of today. \u003ci\u003eThe Heels\u003c\/i\u003e explains how a barrel-chested Milwaukee brewer became wrestling’s first Nazi, then served his country with distinction in World War II, as well as how bleached blond bad guys like the legendary Ric Flair trace their lineage to Gorgeous George — and about the little-known Ohioan that George himself emulated. And of course, Oliver and Johnson’s list of the most influential heels in history is sure to spark debate.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eLike its predecessors in the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame series, \u003ci\u003eThe Heels\u003c\/i\u003e features more than a hundred rarely or never-before-seen photos of wrestling’s most despised characters. From the casual fan to the wrestling historian, anyone interested in the unique world of sports entertainment should have this on their bookshelf.","brand":"ECW Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46511192408319,"sku":"9781550227598","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/Jacket_8b730bc7-70a2-4da6-b95f-761d9563d01d.jpg?v=1767714314","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781550227598","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
