Wrestle Maniacs

by Gabino Iglesias

First published 2018

Professional wrestling meets dark fiction in twelve twisted tales. Nick "The Widowmaker" Bullman steps back into the ring for another noir adventure, while ex-boxer Reggie Levine trades his strip club bouncing gig for fresh mayhem. Ring legend "Pulverizing" Pat McCrunch delivers a confrontational foreword that sets the brutal tone. Each story drags readers into wrestling's underbelly, where the violence extends far beyond choreographed matches. Crime bleeds into locker rooms. Horror stalks the arena corridors. Humor turns savage under the lights. These aren't sanitized entertainment stories but raw explorations of what happens when wrestling's theatrical brutality collides with genuine darkness. The collection grips readers like a submission hold, refusing to release its grip until the final count.
