Description

Professional wrestling is not what it once was. Kayfabe is dead; the internet is in full swing; old habits die hard. The time has come to reassess the industry's identity. 101 WWE Matches To See Before You Die hopes to do just that, challenging orthodox preconceptions of the world's greatest performance art. The methodology is simple: select 101 matches from WWE history that highlight the most important issues permeating professional wrestling today. But don't call them match reviews. These are moral, historical, philosophical must-read muses of must-see art that will enrich your experience as a follower of WWE; question your responsibilities as a fan; ponder your right to be a critic; present a new, different way to watch professional wrestling; and, ultimately, challenge your existing ideas of what professional wrestling can be at its very core.

Author Biography:

Samuel 'Plan is a featured columnist on one of the world's foremost professional wrestling websites, LordsofPain.net, where he was been writing analytical appraisals of professional wrestling products for close to a decade. Among his peers he is known for a consistent library of intelligent and engaging work written in an academic fashion to challenge long-standing ideas and preconceptions. In combining both a fierce passion for writing and a dedicated lifetime as an unashamed and highly passionate professional wrestling fan, 'Plan has been met with a deal of peer-led success, breaking multiple records and winning multiple peer-voted awards for his monthly output during his time writing for the site. In 2014, 'Plan was inducted into the website's exclusive Column Writing Hall of Fame in honour of his contributions. Most famous for authoring a column series once called "the greatest overall achievement in the history of columns on [LordsofPain.net]," 'Plan has developed a uniquely different approach to viewing WWE's widely criticised product; one that puts the power in the hands of the fan. It is a series with a proven precedent of positively transforming the way individual fans watch WWE and which provides the basis for 'Plan's first book - 101 WWE Matches To See Before You Die. Author of the column series Just Business, 'Plan is 20 years a wrestling fan, writes for an international fan base and is a founding host of Lords of Pain Radio's longest-running weekly podcast, The Right Side of the Pond. He is highly active on Twitter (@LoPPlan) and Facebook
