ellisd I typically don't limit myself to what I'll pay for someone, but that's mainly because I live in Montana so I don't have a whole lot of chances to go to meet and greets. But when I do get to go to them I typically set a limit for how much I will spend total not per wrestler. I always get photo ops unless Ive met the wrestler before then sometimes I'll skip it. The pro photo op I'll get when it's the only way to get a photo of course (like at super toy con in Vegas and wizard world) and I will sometimes depending on who it is. So at wrestlecon this year I did one with sting (cause he was in his paint), flair (cause he's my dads favorite wrestler so I thought it'd be a cool thing for us to do), and edge and Cristian (only way to get them together for the pic). Also, where's that comic con you mentioned at? I'd love to meet Trisha and I know she doesn't do too many signings. Thanks for answering. I’ve never done the pro photo op. Last year at the convention I went to, they did a surprise pro photo op with Kevin Smith and Jason Mewes for $100. I would have loved to do it cause I’m a big fan of theirs, but $100 was a bit much for me to drop at one time especially considering I still had the rest of the convention to go through and at this point hadn’t met Jake and DDP yet. Plus I had seen them both talking at a recording of their podcast the night before, didn’t meet them but did get to see them. Its the Lexington Comic and Toy Convention in Lexington, KY. Its gonna be in mid March. There may be more wrestlers announced to be there as they still have more guest announcements coming after the first of the year.

Too close to mania and too far from me. (The distance is only a problem cause of the timing.) hopefully I'll get a chance to meet Trisha at some point. Thanks for the info man.

Hey guys, just curious.... I know most signings cost money. Very seldom are meet and greets free. Foley signed autographs after his comedy show for free unless you had him sign one of the photos that he had on hand and those were $10, but the money from those was going to a charitable cause. I’ve met Sheamus at a book signing for the 30 Years of WrestleMania book and the only charge was that you had to buy the book. But most other signings cost something. My question is do you guys have a price limit per star, if they charge more than that you pass on the autograph. Do you normally go for just autograph or do you do the photo opp as well? And are there some stars that you would pay more to get? If I go to an autograph signing my goal is usually 2 autographs and a photo op. If there's multiple people that I want to meet i'll budget accordingly. I never do the Professional photo ops because they're to expensive and always try to get a photo at the table, if that's not an option you can ask someone in line to take pics of your interaction with the person. Thanks. Yeah the pro photo ops seem to be too expensive when you can get a photo taken at the table. But I guess in the occasions where they don’t allow table photos, I would do one.

So far out of the ones announced I’m definitely meeting Nash and Booker. Then depending on what all else we’re doing and how much extra cash I have I’ll decide on Rey, Trish, and Lita.

I’ve been a big Nash fan since his Diesel days, and my brother is an even bigger fan than me. My brother won’t be able to go, but his birthday is a week before. So I’m gonna get him a Nash autograph as part of his birthday, hoping Nash will even write Happy Birthday on it for him. Also been a big Booker fan since Harlem Heat, so I’m excited about meeting him. I like Rey, Lita, and Trish too, but Booker and Nash are my main priority lol.

His handler might say he isn't doing personalized stuff (probably won't, that usually only happens with current WWE guys but you never know) but even if they sau that just ask Kevin to do it. what the handlers say. Lol

My question is do you guys have a price limit per star, if they charge more than that you pass on the autograph. Do you normally go for just autograph or do you do the photo opp as well? And are there some stars that you would pay more to get? All depends on the wrestler and how big a fan I am. Like I'm a huge Sting, AJ Styles, Alexa, and Becky Lynch fan. I'll get photos anytime o meet them. Some out of necessity (blinking or bad photo) some because it gives me a longer interaction with them. I'll also get as many items as I have signed. So for AJ I have the WWE title signed and am hoping to get him to sign two Mattel elite figures and the magazine naming him wrestler of the year signed. For Sting I've gotten all of the elite Mattel figures signed, the WCW belt and a Wolfpack shirt signed. Plus a dual GAB poster of him and Flair. For other wrestlers it depends on if in a fan. If I'm a true fan illl get one elite figure signed. If not I'll just do a photo. I In the end it's all about how it'll look in my collection.

I just pre-ordered a box of the new legends series. Can hardly wait until that comes. I always thought it would be cool for a whole card set to be dedicated to the legends.

Not that it wasn't already too late, but buy your Mandy Rose cards now, boys. They're gonna be expensive.

Just saw on twitter that the new topps set will feature cut autographs from macho man and Elizabeth! Now I'm really tempted to get back into collecting cards.
