NXT: The Future is Now is scheduled for a Spring 2017 release by ECW Press, in partnership with WWE. Over the past fifteen years, ECW has been a leading publisher of wrestling books, including autobiographies of Jimmy “The Mouth of the South” Hart, Larry Zybyszko, and The Missing Link, as well as The Death of WCW and The Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame series.

In Accepted: How the First Gay Superstar Changed WWE (August 1, 2016, ECW Press), WWE Hall of Famer Pat Patterson shares his story: from decades spent working with Vince McMahon both behind the scenes and in the spotlight, to life as an openly gay athlete from the 70s to the present.

Peppered with 50 photographs, Accepted tells one of the most unlikely stories of a revolutionary talent, pioneer, and creative savant. Still active in WWE today, Pat delivers his no-holds barred story from unknown to WWE luminary.
