Part confessional, part exuberant oral history of sports entertainment’s greatest matches and most loved characters.

Acclaimed sketch comedian Tegan Verheul leaves no Stone (Cold) unturned in her unflinchingly raw autobiographical debut that grapples with heartbreak, friendship, and the healing power of bloodsport. 

Riotously funny, unexpectedly touching, brilliantly human. You will leave a wrestling fan.

“There aren’t a lot of redemption arcs in wrestling. They happen, but they’re rare. Forgiveness doesn’t get the same ratings as justice or revenge. People like to see the bad guys get punished.”
