I didn't know where to post this but I figured it belonged here because you could get your figures autographed if you're in the area. Celebrate The Biggest Event of the Summer by meeting and getting autographs from The Dudley Boyz, Eva Marie, The Miz & Maryse, Cesaro, Titus O’Neil, Finn Bálor & Becky Lynch at various Toys“R”Us locations throughout the New York City area during SummerSlam Week. Superstar signings will take place Wednesday, Aug. 17, through Saturday, Aug. 20. Autographs will be limited to the first 250 guests, and all events are on a first come, first served basis. Check out the schedule of Superstars below, and get your SummerSlam Week off to a great start at Toys“R”Us. *Talent subject to change. Limit 1 autograph per guest.

WWE shows cities like New York way too much love. I live in Texas, but we have some big cities out here, too. We could use some stuff like this. And what I mean by that is, they're still doing signings at Wizard World, but they stopped coming to the Austin, TX Wizard World stop, and now we have one in San Antonio, too.

My first job while in college was at that TRU on Bay Pkway. Wish they would have done this back when I was there.

I would totally go to the one in the Bronx for Finn, but that is the day we are driving down to DC for our daughter's move in date at collage the next day.

Lines Mike's long while people bitch and complain to you how it's not loving and everything else? Too far for me to go and no one I'm that interested in meeting

Caution to anyone attending these signings: prepare to wait up to 3 hours (even if you get there early).
I did most of the signings during last year's Summerslam weekend and it was one of the most exhausting things I've ever experienced.
1). Charlotte & Ryback @ MCU Park: They advertised Fandango & Eva Marie as well but they ended up splitting the four into two different signings, meaning you had to chose which one you wanted to attended. I chose the Ryback/Charlotte line and it was, without question, the WORST THING EVER. There was a celebrity softball game that the four participated in. It ended before 7 and we expected the signing to start immediately after. It didn't. We waited for about an hour before the signing started and the line just wouldn't move. You couldn't get photo ops either.
2). Seth Rollins & Paige @ ToysRUs Times Square: The first 300 people (or so) had to purchase $30.00 worth of WWE merchandise and exchange their receipt for a meet & greet ticket. Day of the signing, I waited on line for about 3 hours. It was worth it because both were super friendly (and Kevin Owens randomly showed up so his son could say hi to Paige) but...woof. One downside (besides waiting): the staff REFUSED to take photos for you. I asked the woman in front of me to take a photo of Seth & I (came out a bit blurry but passable) but she went away and the staff refused to take my photo w/Paige, so I settled for a selfie and it came out horrifically.
3). Kevin Owens @ Hot Topic Garden State Plaza: you had to pre-purchase his K.O. t-shirt in exchange for a meet & greet ticket. I went to this right after Rollins/Paige and it was an incredibly long, taxing wait but Owens was really awesome so it made it worth it

Do you have to purchase $30-40 worth of WWE crap in order to get a ticket? Because I live a few blocks from where Becky will be signing and all they have are tons of unsold E39 Sycho Sids.

We don't know when TX will get another big PPV, but we know when NY will. But I'm not even talking about the events themselves, I'm just talking about the signings.
