Had a local event here in Springfield, Mass. Big Time Wrestling brought in a few of my favorite stars. Here's a few pics of my gets from this weekend!
Everyone piled in line to see the guest of the headlining guest of the night. My girlfriend and I stood there somewhat near the front when I realized Ricky Steamboats table was right next to the one we were in line for with NOBODY in line. She gladly held my spot while I talked to Steamboat for a bit. Really nice guy. Happy to chat with anyone walking by. He looked like he still took pretty awesome are of himself. Here's a pic if my DM Steamboat he signed.
He was selling L1 figures for $30 (included signature) which was pretty awesome since I got one on the bay a few months ago for more than that (after shipping, no autograph)
Also had him sign my big gold and IC title.
A few tables down from him was Demolition. They were all painted up and super friendly. Both commented on how well the figures looked with the paint pen signature. Ax actually told me the best way to dry the paint is to hold the figure overhead and shout "Demolition is #1" as loud as you can haha.
Once I got to meet them I got back in line for the STYLIN' AND PROFILIN' headliner of the evening. The one and only NATURE BOY! It was such an awesome experience meeting the man himself. He was friendly and as charming as you'd hope. I had him sign my DM figures and both my belts. I saved a spot for him right on the end of my big gold belt.
I had him sign the back of my IC title in light pink. I'm trying to have everyone sign it in a color that they wore. Went with pink for Ric and I think it looks great. Pictures don't do it justice. The whole event was awesome Ric & Ricky got in the ring and told a few stories about working together. Flair made some jokes about ex-wives, light beer, and chicken nuggets.
Interesting story, guy in front of me brought a robe that looked pretty authentic. Ric apologized but refused to sign it. He seemed pretty sincere about it though. Maybe he has an agreement with another company regarding signed robes. I saw RSC sold something similar so I'm guessing that's part of their agreement. Just guessing though.
Here's me and Ric and one of him signing my belt.
Hope you guys enjoyed the photos!
