The wrestler who endured childhood abuse, homelessness, and exploitation by unscrupulous promoters tells the story of how he overcame remarkable adversity to achieve superstardom in the ring and become one of wrestling's most compelling personalities. To his fans he's Vampiro, and to his friends he's Ian Hodgkinson - angel to some, devil to others. But whatever you call the wrestler who has endured enough damage to kill an average man, the one thing you can't call him is a quitter. Over the years, Vampiro has lifted himself up off of the ropes time again, and now he's ready to expose the seamy underbelly of professional wrestling once and for all. Getting the truth out won't be easy, but Vampiro was never one to back down from a challenge, and by the time he's had his say, the powers that be will rue the day they ever crossed him.
