That man is the legendary Bruno Sammartino. From his home in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Bruno speaks passionately about the great skill and dedication needed to be a professional wrestler. He shocks us with the inside scoop on wrestling's bad boys and reveals what he thinks about the sport today. Then in an unguarded moment, Bruno exposes the truth about his profession. Just how much of a "choreographed show" is professional wrestling? Hear the answer from Bruno himself. Clips from some of Bruno's most brutal battles are all here in this thundering video spectacular. See Bruno take on wrestling legends like Gorilla Monsoon, Killer Kowalski, Haystack Calhoun, and all the rest of those Madison Square Garden headliners in non-stop mayhem that'll make your head spin. Bruno's story is also one of a supportive and loving family and of his mother's incredible fight to save her children from the Nazis during the German invasion of Italy. Featuring interviews with the Sammartino clan and with the stars and promoters from inside the wrestling world, this video brings Bruno's astonishing "rags to riches" saga to life.
