Did anyone get the Cena signed photo/mat piece from the 2k18 game? I like the idea, but the blue marker doesn't look that great, and poor photo choice IMO.

What's better? A fine paint pen or medium?

What's better? A fine paint pen or medium? Fine works the best on a figure. Id stay away from Extra Fine though, its very thin. Anything larger than a Fine point can look "blotchy"

Anything larger than a Fine point can look "blotchy" I've only used mediums before. I only today discovered they make fine. I'm going to RSF and wanted to know the best pens for the title belts. I think medium can work for figures and posters. But anyone else have input? I've never used the fine one. So it's a figure, two belts, and a mag in getting signed as of now. Does this help with what pen to use?

Also will be using pink on the white womens title and blue on the figures.

I've only ever used medium point paint markers. I have seen people use fine point paint markers on items that are smaller or items with not much room for a signature, like Funko Pops. Never used fine before though, so I can't speak on experience.

The mediums that are shown in the pictures do look great! I'm personally used to using the fine ones on the packages, especially when it comes to DecoColor pens, love how they look. If using something like a PrismaColor, I can understand why Fine points may look thin. Totally depends on the brand it seems.

Ringside Fest 2017 Finally, the time to meet the Goddess arrived. I flew in from West Palm to NYC on Saturday, and my fiance and I spent the day shopping for her. It was the least I could do since I was going to NYC for the specific reason of meeting Alexa Bliss. Saturday was beautiful weather and we spent the day walking around ChinaTown and SOHO before dining at the Porterhouse in the Time Warner Building. Good food, but not as good as it was a year ago. Sunday's weather was horrible, but that wasn't the important part. So, I make it to RSF at about 845. Since I had a VIP pass, I was in no hurry. Wish I would have been though as they started a little early. Anyways, Alexa is up first. She is so sweet and kind. A real delight. I thought Becky Lynch was fun to be around, but Alexa is even better. Couldn't talk too much as the music was really loud, but I had her sign my two title belts, my Alexa Bliss Elite Figure, some 8x10s, and my Muscle and Fitness Magazine with her on the cover. I have some pics below. Now for those that remember, during the WWE Superstore Autograph Signing at Axxess, I had Becky Lynch sign the SDL Women's Title and jokingly asked her for her phone number as I told her to write down any 10 single digits. She laughed and did so. I told Alexa the story and she laughed after I told her that I know she's engaged, and I'm engaged so I can't be trying for phone numbers anymore and she shouldn't be giving them out, but that I'd appreciate it if she wrote some sort of message. She did. My only complaint with meeting Alexa had more to do with the RSF staffers (probably the Caroline's staff). When I first got up, the female staff member told me they were not allowing the Superstars to personalize autographs. I tried to explain that I had 8 tickets for autos, and would gladly use 2 per item so they could personalize, she was not allowing it. Luckily, I just ignored her and asked Alexa to personalize it. SHe was happy to oblige. Alexa is a delight to meet. Glad I had bought multiple pics as some came out with my eyes wide shut or witha stupid smirk on my face. Next up, Big Cass. Didn't want to meet him, but he was part of the VIP ticket. I got an 8x10 signed, and then asked him to sign the meme I have as a signature. I told him if he wanted he could make a jab against Enzo. He coldly said no, drew an X over the Crane, and that was it. I was told I could buy another 8x10 or a figure and come back for his signature, but was meh. It's Cass. It's not like he's a star. I then went back to the hotel room to switch out my autos to get ready to have Strowman and Finn sign.I had Finn sign the two Elite figs I have and an 8x10 for a friend. I then did two pics. Finn was really cool to meet. He personalized my items. Nothing really tosay about my meeting. I tried to get him to do a pose like the one he has on instagram with AJ Styles with AJ doing the Too Sweet and Balor doing the crotch chop. He said the attendants/staffers instructed them not to stand unless it was for groups. So, I came up with something different on the spot. FInally, I ended the day after meeting Braun. THE GUY IS MASSIVE UP CLOSE. WHile Cass looked like a hobo, Braun looked like a true Golem who would and could snap you in half. Nice guy though. Friendly. Asked him if he could put me in a choke hold for the pic. He laughed and politely said no.

^Great stuff! Love the figures! Of the four, I haven't met Alexa yet, but she sounds awesome to meet! I've had great experiences with the other three.

Nice stuff Havoc. I know how eager you were to meet Alexa(as was I) and she didn't disappoint. I agree about the staffers. I'm sure someone with a temper went off on them. She signed your stuff big. When she signed my book and card, her signature was small. That's ok. Maybe I will post pics later.

The only bad part about the experience was the music. I think I really do have some sort of social anxiety as the loudness kept me from talking too much. Either that or I was starstruck. My main goal was not to come off as a creep when meeting Alexa, and I think I did that despite having a ton of things for her to sign.
So in the end, for Alexa, I had 2 Combos = 2 Pics; 2 Autos 3 Autos Tickets 1 VIP = 1 Pic; 2 Autos
7 Autos 3 Photos
I forgot to mention that I got an extra combo from a friend who thought he could go, but ended up cancelling. So he fed exed me the their combos, so I had 1 more photo and 1 more autos to get.
So in all, I should have received 8 autos and 4 photos.
Autos: (1) SDL/Raw Hybrid Belt; (2) SDL Belt; (3) 1 8x10 for Friend; (4) 1 8x10 for Friend; (5) Alexa Bliss Elite; (6) Alexa Bliss Magazine Now, I know I was missing 3, but because the lady attendant was giving me a hard time, and I had told her, I'll just use the extra tickets so she can personalize it to me. With the Hybrid Belt, SDL Belt, Alexa Bliss Elite and Alexa Bliss Mag all being personalized, plus one having a message, in my mind I got what I paid for.
Now, I don't know if they changed the rules midway through, but prior to me, the 10-15 people I saw come out of the line with Alexa Bliss didn't have any personalization. So, in my mind I had to do what I had to do to get the autographs to my liking. Yes, I know I said she was happy to personalize it without me mentioning to her I got the extra photos, but my conscience wouldn't let me redeem more since I told the attendant my plan.

Figured I'd ask here. ROH is coming into ft. Lauderdale. Not sure i want to go to the event itself, but would love to meet the Addiction and MCMG who are both allegedly on the card. The Elite will be there as well, but they annoy me and I doubt I'd want to meet what I deem the equivalent of a Youtube Celebrity. Anyways. Point is, does ROH do meet and greets before the events? Or after?

Before and you have to buy tickets for the show to get in, at least in NYC it's like that. I doubt they sign after the show. Maybe 1-2 will sign at intermission.

Havoc glad you had an awesome time. Wish we met. I think if the person ask they got it personalized. I wish I asked. I froze when it was my time with Alexa. Also the staff was hit and miss. Wanna say something but don’t wanna ruin it in years to come.

havoc7179 glad you had a good time. what the handles say. Lol. I don't ask them for anything. When I met Alexa in Chicago I asked her to put "first raw and smackdown women's champ" on both my belts and she had no problem doing it. this was right after being told she wasn't doing personalized stuff. Lol.

Lol. yeah, if I do meet her again (and I would love to), I'll just have her add a similar message on the other side of the belt. I should know to ignore the handlers, but I just don't want to do anything that would cause me to get kicked out of an event. Had the handler not said anything, it would have been no issue.
