Dear wrestler,

Do you like listening to great wrestling fiction, using real wrestling moves, yet are tired of having to wade through a bunch of drama to get to the match? If so, this book is for you. It is a comedy, which contains the only serious thing: wrestling itself.

Also if you are new to the sport, have no worries. At the end of the book, there is an explanation of the wrestling point system and a wrestling move description list.

Listen, wrestle, and enjoy.

Always shoot with your head up,

Joe Rasselor

About this book: Our hero, Apostle Watson, challenges the returning state champion, Sherlock Ies, for the 177-weight class. This turns all of Killimore High School on its head. The result is Apostle having one crazy day leading up to the wrestle off (challenge match). Let every wrestler and non-wrestler listen at their own risk.

This is an extend version. The original was written for Loudoun County Public Library’s Write On! Short Story contest.

Wrestling moves: Arm-Drag; Cross-Face; Head’n’Arm; Double Leg Takedown; Sprawl; Tight-Waist-Ankle; Turk; Under Hook.
