Life is Fighting

“When I first stumbled across Kevin’s work on YouTube, I was blown away by his raw intensity and unmatched promo ability. His presence was magnetic, and his words cut like a blade. I was lucky enough to work with him in Lucha Underground and later in AAA, witnessing firsthand his brilliance in the ring and beyond. Kevin is not just a powerhouse performer; he’s one of the most intelligent and kind-hearted people I’ve ever met in the wrestling world. His promos are meticulously crafted, each line dripping with purpose and genius. Though he may seem like a killer in the ring, offstage, he’s a true gentleman. In Life Is Fighting, Kevin shares stories that are as gripping and powerful as his performances, offering a glimpse into the mind of a true visionary. This is a must-read for anyone who loves wrestling—or simply a damn good story.” — Chris DeJoseph, Producer, Writer, The Circle, Love Island, Big Brother, WWE, Lucha Underground“I’ve known Kevin for many years, and I’ve seen the ups and downs of his career from a distance and some firsthand. Getting the chance to hear, in detail, his thoughts and emotions as he made his way to the present day was eye-opening. Most people don’t know him besides what they see on TV. Taking the chance to read this book gives people the opportunity to see into one of the most creative and driven people I’ve ever met. The world around you doesn’t always work like you think it will, but regardless of that, you’ll learn how Kevin has been able to evolve and adapt where most people would have given up. Incredibly inspiring.” — Xavier Woods, WWE King of the Ring and 12-time Tag Team Champion“Life Is Fighting is a must-read for any fan of the wrestling business. On a grander scale, it is a personal, open, and honest account filled with several helpful gems of advice that are sure to help many in need of hope, motivation, or guidance.” — Kofi Kingston, WWE Grand Slam Champion, 16-time Tag Team Champion“Life Is Fighting isn’t just a memoir—it’s a playbook for perseverance. With brutal honesty, Kevin pulls back the curtain on a life forged in pain, discipline, and raw purpose. This is more than a wrestling story—it’s a visceral reminder that the fiercest fights aren’t in the ring, but within ourselves.” — Chris Van Vliet, four-time Emmy award winner
