This meticulously crafted and searing critique of pro wrestling is unlike any wrestling book published: Chokehold is a penetrating description of pro wrestling's dark side, a secret underworld of deception, exploitation and greed. The storyteller is "Big Jim" Wilson, All-American football player and survivor of seven years in the NFL, who was promised wealth and the world championship as pro wrestler. Instead, Jim Wilson found a surprisingly lucrative sports entertainment industry built on a pyramid of secrets that included abusive control of its performers and a long history of illegal business practices and corruption of politicians and state athletic commissions. Chokehold describes and documents the abuses that Jim Wilson witnessed and endured - blacklisting, strong-arm tactics, homosexual blackmail, defiance of the U.S. Justice Department and bribery of TV executives and arena managers. Chokehold is an explosive indictment of the pro wrestling industry's business practices as well as a thoughtful proposal for pro wrestling's reform. This book is not a conventional expos' of pro wrestling's orchestrated stunts, gimmicks and blade jobs. Instead, it is an unprecedented examination of pro wrestling's less visible cons outside the ring -- its hidden manipulation of wrestlers with broken promises and broken bones and a backstage power of the pencil that writes scripts for wrestler stardom or extinction. Chokehold describes a secret slice of the wrestling life where traveling troupes of heels and babyfaces understand how they got into the game, but cannot find a way up or out. This is the story of why and how the big guys almost always lose. Chokehold is part autobiography and part pro wrestling history. Written in wrestlespeak (the industry's insider argot), it is dedicated to the memory of "the older boys whose broken bodies and shattered lives should have taught us something."

Great stuff definitely recommend at least trying
I've been using the TruSkin Vitamin C serum for over a year, and it's done a solid job brightening my complexion and fading dark spots. Finally gave the full Face Serum Trio a shot with the hyaluronic acid and retinol, and after about a month, it's working great, just like the Vitamin C. The hyaluronic acid hydrates my skin well without any grease, and the retinol's knocked down some fine lines, making things smoother and fresher. Layering them has improved the texture and glow noticeably. No irritation on my sensitive skin. Solid value—I picked this up at $26 when it was Prime Day, but even at that $40 price range, it's still worth it in my opinion since it can last a while. Definitely recommend

Great deal, my face loves them
Love these and got them on a great deal! The retinol and vitamin c my face loves!! The hylalonic acid seems super similar to the vitamin c in formula, I use that one less.

My Skin Looks Brighter and More Hydrated
I use the vitamin C and hyaluronic acid in the morning after I wash my face, and then I use the retinol at night followed by my moisturizer. This routine has made a noticeable difference in my skin.
I especially see it under my eyes and with my crow’s feet. My skin looks more hydrated, brighter, and overall healthier. On days I forget to bring the serums with me when I travel, I can actually tell. My skin feels more dehydrated and just looks more dull.
When I’m consistent, my face looks more plump, glowy, and hydrated. That alone tells me these are working.
They are also very lightweight and not greasy or oily at all. They absorb quickly into the skin and do not have a strong smell, which I really appreciate.

Would highly recommend
I was looking for something new and not crazy expensive. I have been using for 3 weeks now and I seeing good results. My skin is looking hydrated and feels awesome. I did also purchase the brightening moisturizer in addition to the serums as well as a night cream for my evening routine. Will continue to purchase. I do see that the droppers can stick but nothing that prevents you from using the product. There is very little scent which is a plus for my liking.
