Summary

In this comprehensive look into Title: Subtitle by Author, you'll gain insight with this essential resource as a guide to aid your discussions. 

George Murdoch, commonly known as Tyrus, a dark-skinned performer, and political commentator, was born in 1973. Tyrus was bullied about the color of his skin, which made him violently protective of himself. After his parents divorced, Tyrus moved with his mother to California, where football predominated his high school and junior college years. His passion for wrestling propelled him to make several failed attempts at reinventing himself, including working as a club bouncer, a bodyguard for Snoop Dogg, and eventually signing contracts with World Wrestling Entertainment. Through a collection of spectacular, unforgettable experiences, the author recounts all of his adventures. Taking advantage of opportunities as they arose, Tyrus capitalized on his physically imposing presence; in 2006, he made his WWE debut as a street-thug superstar named "G-rilla." He gained enormous popularity in the ring and sustained a reputation for being a tough guy. The author shows his meaningful perspective on race throughout his early years through his early attempts to join the WWE, where remarks concerning his skin tone stuck out. However, Tyrus never skimps on the intimate details and outspoken thoughts that have made his time on Fox News so memorable. The memoir is supercharged with the kind of fire and passion fans of the wrestling star will relish—an insightful look at a multidimensional artist who defies discrimination.
