About this listen
"Sean's story, beginning as a renegade, outlaw company and evolving to redefining the shoot video genre, is extremely fascinating. Who knew that the man asking the questions was as fascinating as his subject matter?" - Justin Barrasso, Sports Illustrated
"Kayfabe brings to life a world that once had its own version of ‘omerta’ in a fascinating, well written book that will intrigue long time fans, new fans, and just those who are hoping to take a peek behind the curtain of this unlikely cultural phenomenon." - Eric Bischoff, WCW President
"I worked in a business full of liars, cheaters, workers, con artists and of course...politicians. I can name maybe 3 people over the years that I 100% trusted, or even believed for that matter. Sean Oliver is one of those men. In reading Kayfabe, you can believe that 100% of this masterpiece is accurate - yes, even the parts about me. The most stand-up guy perhaps ever associated with the business of Pro Wrestling. You want truth - you'll find it right here." - Vince Russo, Former WWE/WCW Head Writer
If you thought the world of pro wrestling was wild, imagine what you haven’t seen on TV and in the ring. Add to that the backdrop of building a renegade production company, negotiating with impossible wrestling talent, and hosting groundbreaking, shoot-style programming, and you have the story of Sean Oliver.
Sean has seen industry-wide accolades for the company he co-founded and for which he serves as front man. But there are also the threats, stories of abuse, and moments of downright hilarity that you haven’t known...until now.
Watch the unpredictable and unconventional story through Sean’s eyes.

Giving the story from behind the camera
On KC Sean has interviewed some of the best stars of wrestling about candid moments. This book takes you, not just through those moments, but also what happened when cameras went rolling and the action that occurred to set up those legendary interviews.

Awesome
Been a fan of KC ever since l saw clips on YouTube. I didn't know what shoot interviews were but as a wrestling fan I was intrigued and immediately loved the content provided especially Timeline and YouShoot. Sean told his story in a funny and engaging way and his experiences in this weird old business provided the listener with great insight. There is nothing like the pro wrestling business and that's why l love it. Thank you to all at KC for their time, money and effort for creating content for fans like me.

Great for behind the scenes stuff
Good stories about wrestlers, mostly from the 80's and 90's. Sean sure does love himself and seems to think he can almost do no wrong, I'm sure he'll tell you I'm wrong though. However, Sean is a great entertainer and his belief can come across as arrogant and smutty but it has helped him create a platform like no others. This book is about that and the great name's he's worked with. There's stories involving New Jack, Sandman, Scott Hall, Nash, Cornette, Bruno, Raven, Russo and many more within. Been a big fan of Sean's work and certainly consider myself a Kayfabe Commando. It was great to have this insight and a great read for those who love the industry and love go beyond the PG blanketed main shows.

Hit & Self-indulgent Miss
Starts solid with a story on Buff Bagwell, then quickly becomes a crude and self-indulgent mess that I'm sure appeals to fans of Oliver's series, but unfortunately was a massive disappointment to this newbie.
