Another problem is this: all obscenities are edited, for some reason. Also, weaving in and out of narratives from the various parties in this book can grow quite tedious at times, especially if you don't read it in one sitting. There are quite a few grammatical errors (I know-pot, kettle, black, whatever) and quite a few sentences that are hard to decipher. With that said, don't look for this book to try to recreate the life's work of Tolstoy or anything.
Rather, he was a bartender for Page in Florida in the 1980's and remains a friend to Page to this day.
On top of that, all three of these perspectives are written in different fonts: one for Page, one for Genta, and italics for people offering their unvarnished opinions on the man.Īnother unique detail of this book is this: Larry Genta is NOT an author. Instead, it weaves between Page's narrative, Genta's narrative, and testimonials from Page's friends, colleagues, family, and others. It is not solely authored by Page or solely authored by his ghostwriter Larry Genta. "Positively Page" is quite a unique wrestling autobiography. The answer, quite simply, is all of the above. Some see him as an overwhelmingly positive influence who is willing to do anything to help anyone, particularly his friends. Some see him as the ultimate underdog, a man who started wrestling relatively late in life and, through sheer effort and work ethic, ascended to the top of the industry. Some see him as nothing but a hack and shameless self promoter who only ascended to main event status because of friends in high places (or in this case, next door). Diamond Dallas Page is a unique character, and the opinions on DDP as a wrestler tend to vary greatly.
