"An entertaining look at life backstage beyond the
ropes."--Kirkus
"Not nearly enough Miz."--The Miz
"Brian and I are kindred spirits. Amidst allegations of Flash
action figure payola, the infamous wrestlers court, multitudes of
laughs, made-up words, 5 second poses, roasting local sports teams
and battling at WrestleMania in my hometown over a Japanese shampoo
endorsement (you knew I had to mention it), we've both ended up
where we needed to be. Keep the world smiling, Brian. As you do in
this book. Wrestling's version of War and Peace. Or a great,
comedic book that involves writing outlandish scenarios for men in
tights. Whichever. I'll be over here still wearing spandex."--Adam
"Edge" Copeland, Canadian professional wrestler and actor
"Brian Gewirtz's book THERE'S JUST ONE PROBLEM is a fascinating and
hilarious inside look into Brian's unlikely, yet incredible rise to
sports entertainment "inside" fame and what I would describe as a
true WWE Hall of Fame career as a writer and for years now, finding
tremendous success as our lead Seven Bucks' executive.
His long, storied and unbelievable tenure in WWE, is truly what
legends are made of."--Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson
"I never met someone in the wrestling business that wasn't a
wrestler that had as much knowledge and insight as Brian. There
would not be a King Bookah without a Brian Gewirtz."--Booker T, WWE
Hall of Famer and five-time WCW Champion
"Every wrestling fan will love this book. The stories are truly
amazing! I couldn't put it down."--Ken Jeong, stand-up comedian,
actor, producer, and writer
"I simply could not put this tremendous book down, finishing it in
two sittings within a single day--and lost count of how many times
I laughed out loud along the way. Brian Gewirtz has an instant
wrestling classic on his hands here; a very enjoyable romp down
memory lane, with a unique perspective from a man who was either in
the middle of, or very close to some of the greatest (and not so
great) moments in WWE history. With unfettered access to WWE boss
Vince McMahon, and as one of Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson's closest
confidants, Brian Gewirtz is the perfect person to chronicle the
hectic and sometimes surreal behind-the-scenes chaos of the WWE
creative process--and he delivers the goods in insightful and
hilarious fashion."--Mick Foley, WWE Hall of Famer and multi-time
New York Times bestselling author
"In the book, THERE'S JUST ONE PROBLEM, written by the most
talented writer in the history of the WWE, Brian Gewirtz (my
opinion), Brian takes you on a roller coaster ride in regards to
his amazing time writing in the WWE. Brian even discusses his "day"
in wrestlers court, where he was the first and only writer in WWE
to have to go in front of a judge (actually a wrestler) and pay his
debt for "allegedly" favoring to write for his favorite wrestlers.
He survived!!! This book is as entertaining as the scripts Brian
wrote during his amazing career in the WWE. This book is a must
read."--Kurt Angle, WWE Hall of Famer and Olympic Gold Medalist
"This is the best book I have read in years. If you're a fan of
WWE, or heck, even if you're not, this inside look into the life of
one of the most intense jobs in all of entertainment, a WWE writer,
hilariously detailed by one of the most impactful writers and
creative contributors in WWE history is nothing short of
fascinating. It's a laugh out loud, can't put down, sad that it's
over kind of book and I loved every second of it. Apart from, of
course, when it was over."--Becky Lynch, WWE Superstar and six-time
WWE Women's Champion
