Okay guys so I got a pretty long story/review for you guys! I apologize in advance if it's poorly written as i'm exhausted after a very long day!
So I woke up at 8:45 in the morning after a LONG night I didn't get to sleep until about 4 in the morning the night before so I didn't get much sleep. I hopped in the shower real quick, got dressed and now i'm ready to meet 2 of my favorite wrestlers (Ambrose and Rollins) today! I get in the car and start my drive to the signing. I get there around 10:30 in the morning and the place is already PACKED! It's a pretty small mall and the signing is right near the entrance so the line was from the entrance of the mall all the way down to the food court!! The line ended up almost filling the whole mall out. Around 11:20 the shield finally arrivied to some YES changes from a few smarks in line LOL.
The line started out very slow and I didn't move for an hour. TBH I usually love wrestling crowds but this one today... not so much. The kids behind me were begging their Mom for a 200 dollar banner that the store was selling because they had nothing for the Shield to sign, the lady in front of me brought her kid who looked around 7 and some other lady was with her who had her kid and daughter who looked around 7 as well and they were going crazy. They were out of control. They were running all around me and sitting right next to my feet and crap it got pretty annoying . Fast fowarding, it's now 1:30 which is when the signing was scheduled to end and I'm about 40 people back in line and they announce that they're going to stay an extra 2 hours which was awesome. I get the kids behind me to hold my spot so I can go check out what's going on and see if the shield are wearing there vest (which they weren't) so I go up to the side of the front of the line not bugging anyone just handling my business trying to see if I can see them and some guy that works there said to me and a few other people "EVERYONE MOVE BACK!! You're in a restricted zone! If you don't move back we will have the cops come over here and arrest you which I don't want to have to do" So I went back to my spot in line, it's not like I was bugging anyone or had peeped my head in the store hell I couldn't even see them!
So FINALLY after 4 ing hours of standing line i'm up I went over to Rollins he shook my hand and said "Hey how you doing buddy" I replied with "I'm doing great, how are you? I'm a huge fan" He said "I'm doing alright, man and thanks I appreciate it!" then I said "No problem man, I watched your matches with Nigel Mcguinness back in ROH they were awesome man" and he said "Oh yeah I loved working with Nigel!" Then I said "Yeah its sad he had to retire so early" then he said "Oh yeah, he was great in the ring" Then Ambrose Reigns and Rollins all laugh and I was just standing there with a complete confused look on my face and Rollins pointed at Reigns and was like "Don't you want to meet Reigns to" And I was like "Oh yeah, Whats up Reigns!" (tbh i'm not a big fan of Roman I'm more of a Ambrose and Rollins guy) Then while Roman was about to say something else I looked back at Rollins shook his hand said "It was an honor man!" and he said "thanks for coming out!"
Now its time for Roman, I'm a fan of Roman just not as big on him as I am Seth and Dean but anyways I said "When you first came to WWE I didn't really know you what to think but over this last year you have really impressed me!" and he said "Thanks man I really appreciate it" then I said no problem and shook his hand and that was it for Roman.
Now its time for my favorite member of the Shield, Dean Ambrose! I went up to him shook his hand and said "Whats up Dean i'm a huge fan!!" he said "thanks" so I said "After you came to WWE I started watching alot of your CZW promos and i've became a huge fan, they were awesome!" (shoutout to Dean F'n Ambrose for showing me most of those promos)He laughed and said "that's awesome thanks bro" I said "Yeah I loved the i'm just a sick guy promo" He started cracking up and was like "Oh yeah that was awesome man" and then WHILE I'M ING TALKING TO DEAN AMBROSE THE PEOPLE BEHIND ME ALREADY STARTED GETTING THERE THINGS SIGNED AND THEY WERE SHOVING ME OUT OF THE WAY!!! Like are you ing serious? I spent 90 bucks to be treated like that!? Thats some poor customer service. Then he said "Damn man i'm real sorry that sucks" I said "No its whatever, man! See ya later!" Then he had to sign the next thing and on my way out of the store he looked up at me and said "See Ya man!!!" Not gonna lie I marked out like crazy! Dean Ambrose was the man! Def one of the coolest wrestlers I ever met.
Overall great day but the place running this event sucked and were dicks. I still had a great time andwill edit my post later tonight with what I got signed.
The Shield are up there with Matt Hardy in terms of how nice they were to me! Awesome guys and did not disappoint!
