Synopsis

From his humble beginnings as a Mid Michigan farm boy, Dan Severn exploded onto the amateur wrestling scene as the most heavily recruited wrestler in history.

Pulling no punches, Severn addresses every aspect of his various combat careers. Whether you're a fan of amateur wrestling, mixed martial arts or professional wrestling, this autobiography stands as a testament to the fact that Dan 'The Beast' Severn will always be 'The Realest Guy in the Room'.
