Wow you met so many people! I know that must have cost a fortune but it would be super fun so it's all good. I like how you included a ton of pictures but I was sad you didn't have one for Molly.

Great report! I really wanted to go to this event, but I had to work.... thanks for showing me everything that I missed! Legends of the Ring is such an awesome event,
I'm glad you ate at Yogi's.... there is nothing like eating in that restaurant and being surrounded by wrestling legends! When I had a similar experience last fall, I was in the buffet line with Vader, and EC3 (of all people) cleared the buffet with a HUGE plate! There were wrestlers sitting in literally every corner of that restaurant...
Sucks that Harlem Heat cancelled.... really puts a sour taste in my mouth. I would have been ticked if I had gone and Heenan wasn't there, as he had to cancel last year and he was one of my #1 wants... so maybe it's better that I didn't make it to this one.
Thanks for sharing your experience!

Genie is Sabu's girlfriend or something.
Looked like an amazing time! As you said, Kimberly and New Jack don't make many appearances, and it's awesome that you got to see BOTH there.
I'd freak the hell out if I met Stinko Malenko, he's a good dude and has decades of wrestling knowledge, what I wouldn't give to pick his brain!

Excellent report and great pics! I really want to go to a LOTR one day. Absolutely do it! It's an incredible time. thanks for sharing! Rob Conway looks homeless... I didn't even recognize him at first! I ordered a VIP Encyclopedia special for him/Bob Holly/Molly Holly/Danny Doring and I almost missed getting Conway because he was so unrecognizable. The promoter was like, "Uh...are you getting Conway too?" But he was very nice and engaging. Wow you met so many people! I know that must have cost a fortune but it would be super fun so it's all good. I like how you included a ton of pictures but I was sad you didn't have one for Molly. It did cost a lot of money but I pre-ordered a ton of tickets months and months in advanced. The event is already paid off, with the exception of my Lex Luger combo (which was only $35). I'll upload a pic of Molly signing right now. There's one of her and I in my blog. The reason I didn't include one was because my girlfriend didn't take a great pic of her signing. Great report! I really wanted to go to this event, but I had to work.... thanks for showing me everything that I missed! Legends of the Ring is such an awesome event, I'm glad you ate at Yogi's.... there is nothing like eating in that restaurant and being surrounded by wrestling legends!

I would have been ticked if I had gone and Heenan wasn't there, as he had to cancel last year and he was one of my #1 wants... so maybe it's better that I didn't make it to this one. Thanks for sharing your experience! I definitely had you in mind when we opted to eat at Yogi's. It was very surreal sitting at the rest. while surrounded by wrestler's coming in and out. Heenan not being there is something I can understand because of his health. Harlem Heat cancelling twice for "travel reasons" though? Psh. Genie is Sabu's girlfriend or something. Looked like an amazing time! As you said, Kimberly and New Jack don't make many appearances, and it's awesome that you got to see BOTH there. I'd freak the hell out if I met Stinko Malenko, he's a good dude and has decades of wrestling knowledge, what I wouldn't give to pick his brain! Malenko was very polite and was accessible for most of the day. Kimberly was a sweetheart but I didn't go anywhere near New Jack. He's someone that looked miserable being there and I didn't really feel like giving him my $10. I was there. Cornette was really friendly. Fink sold me an In your house t shirt. Original. And I bought an animal wrestling buddy from Amish Roadkill. Also got a signed bret/Owen/Davey in your house Canadian stampede poster That's awesome, man! I definitely saw a bunch of cool memorabilia I had my eye on. I love reading threads like this Thanks, man! Awesome bro. Sucks i missed out because admission was sold out, but i can't wait to go next time. Thanks, man! Tickets for the October show go on sale tomorrow! They'll also be announcing their first "minor" Super Ticket guest.

You didn't meet Shawn Michaels?

You didn't meet Shawn Michaels? I met him back in 2003 and didn't have a pressing need to meet him again, especially at his price and the time it would've consumed. There's no way I would've met all the wrestlers I did if I had done HBK.
