In Kevin Owens and Sami Zayn, today's fans have one of the most coherent and long-term collaborations that has ever existed in wrestling history. Over the course of their twenty-year career we can document the number of matches they've been in together at over 300-and Kevin estimates it's at least double that, thanks to the sheer number of matches with tiny promotions that were never recorded. J.J. McGee, a professor at Aichi Shukutoku University in Japan with a doctorate in rhetoric, has primed her brain to look for symbolism, recurring themes and subtle character work. Known to wrestling fans as "Mith Gifs", she has a gift for finding the little things that make a story special. Fans know they can count on her to stitch together the pieces of an elaborate tapestry, revealing the complete picture of what's really going on. In Fight Forever: The Ballad of Kevin and Sami, she's exploring a partnership unlike any other-the saga of two men who fought their way from high school gyms to the grandest stage of them all at WrestleMania without ever losing touch with who they are.Each chapter of this history will focus in-depth on one match, the fictional story leading up to and away from it, and some of the real events connected to it. As we move from one match to the next, you'll hear about the triumphs and losses, the disasters and miracles, the heroes and villains-both in the fiction and in reality-and follow along as the two men at the center of the story grapple with the defining question of both the characters' and the real peoples' lives: "Can we succeed together, or are we stronger apart?"
