Synopsis For An Upcoming Book On The McMahons Revealed

Aug 5, 2014

Here is the synopsis for the upcoming book on the rise of the McMahon family empire. The book, titled ‘Capitol Revolution: The Rise of the McMahon Wrestling Empire,’ will be released in march of 2015 and is written by wrestling historian Tim Hornbaker, who also wrote a book on the NWA a few years ago…

For decades, the Capitol Wrestling Corporation was considered the heart of the professional wrestling world. The Capitol territory — from Boston southward to Washington, D.C. — enjoyed lucrative box office receipts, and New York’s Madison Square Garden was center stage. Three generations of McMahons have controlled wrestling in that storied building and have since created the most powerful wrestling company the world has ever known.

Capitol Revolution: The Rise of the McMahon Wrestling Empire documents the growth and evolution of pro wrestling under the stewardships of the McMahons, highlighting the many trials and tribulations beginning in the early 20th century: clashes with rival promoters, government inquests, and routine problems with the potent National Wrestling Alliance monopoly. In the ring, superstars such as Buddy Rogers and Bruno Sammartino entertained throngs of fans, and internationally Capitol became well known for its stellar pool of vibrant performers.

Covering the transition from old-school wrestling, under the WWWF banner, to the pop-cultural juggernaut of the mid- to late-’80s WWF, Tim Hornbaker’s Capitol Revolution is the detailed history of how the McMahons outlasted their opponents and fostered a billion-dollar empire.
