Summary

The uncensored inside story of ECW's founder Tod Gordon's journey from jewelry store owner to one of the three most powerful promoters in pro wrestling.

In Tod is God—so named for a chant the ECW fans created to honor the founder—Gordon chronicles each step of the company's meteoric rise to prominence, as well as the elements that led to his removing himself from the company before its demise. Gordon's former partnership with ECW booker Paul Heyman made for magical TV and in-ring moments. The friendship between Gordon and Heyman, both a blessing and curse, was the once-in-a-lifetime bond responsible for so many of history's greatest teams, bands, and partners. Gordon has stayed silent on the causes for the split and, by doing so, assumed blame for it. Until now.

Tod is God is the closest you'll ever get to living ECW's ride to the top. Come sit beside Sandman, Sabu, Terry Funk, Cactus Jack, and other ECW stars as Gordon brings you inside the locker rooms, hotel rooms, and car rides. From the triumphs and breakthroughs to the frustrations and tragedies, you'll live it all alongside the man who started it all.

Tod Is God

Really recommend this. Sean Oliver’s style makes this a joy to listen along to and his impressions are spot on. It’s okay… Dory is here.

Crazy ECW story. From a different perspective.

Very enjoyable and entertaining read. The ECW story told from the man who started it all and his perspective on the events. Which differs from the WWE and Paul Heyman story.

If your a ECW fan this book is perfect for you. really informative on behind the scenes. what ever went on between Paul and tod. and the aftermath of ECW. I'm so proud to own a copy of this work in my collection.
