About this listen

 The surprising story of how wrestling superstar Glenn "Kane" Jacobs beat all the odds to become the mayor of Knox County, Tennessee.
Even in his heyday in wrestling, Jacobs was inspired to pursue politics by popular libertarian figures such as former Republican presidential candidate Ron Paul, Republican Senator Rand Paul, Fox News' Judge Andrew Napolitano and others, and that led him to fulfill his own political ambitions.
Before becoming Mayor Kane, Glenn "Kane" Jacobs was one of WWE's top Superstars for over two decades and traveled the globe with the likes of "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, John Cena, Ric Flair, and many others. He dominated the WWE with The Undertaker as the "Brothers of Destruction." Kane reinvented himself with the help of Daniel Bryan forming "Team Hell No." He set "Good ol' JR," Jim Ross on fire.
The wrestler-turned-politician hasn't hung up his wrestling boots yet. Politics is a contact sport and Jacobs is using his wrestling skills in that arena. Jacobs supports President Trump and his agenda, and is implementing conservative policies in Tennessee.

I loved this book.
I am a big fan of pro wrestling but an even bigger Kane fan and have been waiting 20 plus years for a book on his life. It's great to hear more about Glenn and the stories he's had with all the interesting characters thrown in.
I thought Glenn's naration was top notch. Sincere at times and very funny at others.
Even if you don't like wrestling, Glenn gives enough insight for you to understand the stories he tells.
Highly recommended!! Thank you Kane!!! Thank you Mr Jacobs!!!

Great insight behind the mask

No shocks nor great stories; his personal political beliefs are naïve "American Dream" chasing flannel

Too much real politics, not WWE politics!

An outstanding read/listen. Couldn't stop listening, every time I was about doing odd jobs at home, I'd put this on and become immersed in the amazing stories. I would highly recommend to anyone, not just wrestling fans.

Outstanding Book

I really enjoyed Mayor Jacob's book. I'm a wrestling fan from the UK. I enjoyed his journey playing the role of Kane, his outlook on the Montreal Screwjob and I was surprised by his political views, including those of Donald Trump. He has inspired me to learn more about libertarianism, Ron and Rand Paul.
I've not used Audible before and I was surprised when I played it and the book was read by Glen himself. I thoroughly enjoyed listening and was still wanting more when the book ended. Hopefully, there will be another in the future.

A really enjoyable book.
