Description
“A powerful, deeply human exploration of identity and desire, told through the lens of an underground wrestling world most people never see.”
Written by Thunders Arena’s very own video guy, DigDug, who has spent 18 years working side-by-side with Mr. Mike, witnessing countless wild moments, heartfelt confessions, and behind-the-scenes stories.
Though none of the events in this book are about any one wrestler, Kyle’s journey is a blend of the all-too-common struggles, secrets, and victories DigDug has seen echoed across the underground wrestling world for nearly two decades.
Kyle is an 18-year-old state champion who stumbles into a world of ego, performance, and intimacy he isn’t ready for, but desperately needs.
As he navigates wrestling rings, late-night clubs, blurred boundaries, and the complicated men around him, Kyle begins to realize his real opponent isn’t in the ring.
It’s the shame he inherited.
The rules he never agreed to.
And the version of himself he’s been pretending to be.
WRESTLING WITH MYSELF is a raw and emotional coming-of-age story that challenges the expectations placed on young men, and offers a vulnerable, authentic look at sexuality, masculinity, and the fight to finally stop running from the truth.
