Total Nonstop Autumn continues with Total Nonstop Agony, the third (!) memoir by "legendary" pro wrestling writer Vince Russo. We've somehow avoided Russo's previous two books but now we're compelled to read about his tumultous stint at TNA. Was it worth our time, or is the book just an excuse to badmouth Eric Bischoff, Bruce Prichard and (to a lesser extent) Hulk Hogan for 250 pages? Spoiler: It's the latter. Yikes.
