So I got tickets to a TNA house show for Christmas which includes a meet and greet. And so far the only confirmed wrestlers are Jeff Hardy, Scott Steiner, Abyss and Tara and Tessmacher. Kind of lackluster if you ask me but I guess they got a european tour going on at the same time.
I have a few wrestling belts and i'm trying to decide which two to bring to get signed. I really only want wrestlers who have held the belt to sign it. The ones i'm considering bringing are either the world heavyweight championship, wwe spinner belt or wwf intercontinental belt. I'm thinking the WHC because Hardy can sign it and I might get Steiner to sign it, even though technically he only held the WCW championship but its almost the same belt.
I just can't decided if I want to bring the spinner to get signed by Hardy or the wwf ic belt to get signed by him. I'll probably bring a tna dvd to get signed by the rest.
So pretty much just looking for peoples input on which belt they would bring to get signed.

You'll figure it out about a week before the show, when the final card is released.

Has anyone been to a meet and greet for TNA before a house show? Will the wrestlers sign more then 1 item per person? Not trying to come off as greedy. The deal is anyone with a ticket in the first 3 rows gets admission to the meet and greet. So i'm guessing thats maybe 100 people. But the only reason i'm sure I can get at least 2 autographs per wrestler is because I got a friend coming with me who doesn't like wrestling and just going for the free ticket.
Just found out Ric Flair is going to be there which is a major plus. So i'm definitely bringing the WHC belt. I also have a WWF attitude championship which Flair has never held the attitude version but has held the WWF title. So now I guess the toss up for me is to bring either the WWE Spinner or WWF Attitude belt to get signed.

^Yeah, there isnt a limit, but it's usually really rushed, so try to get your items out quickly

Thanks for the input guys. I'd be pumped if I could manage Flair and Hardy to sign 4 of my wrestling belts. The 2 I will be holding and the 2 my friend will be holding.
Now i'm not sure which lineup card to believe. The venue site has more wrestlers listed now but impactwrestling.com has only a few listed and not the ones listed on the venue site.
Also this might sound weird but should I bring my own silver sharpie for the belts? Or is that a given that they will probably have a silver sharpie. I know Y2J had a few different sharpies.

Flair and Hardy will not do meet and greet. You will need to purchase a backstage pass for a chance at Flair...thats only a chance. $50. And the Hardy Party for Hardy will run more than likely $20...but has run as high as $75. Hardy is guaranteed during Hardy Party and yes you will get your 4 belts done. Flair is about 50/50 and yes, you will get your 4 belts done. BRING a silver sharpie. I have been to countless ones of these and TNA is not prepared for this. I cant even rmeember someone having silver. One time all the wrestlers had brown for some reason.

I went to a TNA house show last year, it was pretty cool, but during intermission there was a big ass line to get Mickie James' autograph. And I just don't want to wait in a long line to get anyone's autograph (got Edge & Christian once at a record store after a show, so I did wait once). But more power to you guys with the patience and drive to get all your signings - it's just not for me.

I don't get it are they to "big" to do a meet and greet?

reviews.ticketmaster.com/7171/1008830/tna-wrestling-reviews/reviews.htmAccording to that it seems like its a toss up to meet Hardy at the meet and greet but can usually meet him and get a pic in the ring after the show for a fee. With Flair I can understand how it might be a lot harder to have him show up at the meet and greet. The venue I purchased tickets from said nothing about vip/backstage tickets. Is that something they offer at the show?

Is that something they offer at the show? The meet and greet is essentially a rip off in my opinion. The only real perk is you get a seat in the first few rows. They let you in an hour early and mid carders will sign things for you as you stand behind the rail. Most people swarm and most wrestlers don't hang around long enough to sign everything. Some of the same people will come out at the end and sign for free. During intermission, they have tables set up and certain wrestlers will sign TNA programs or TNA items for free. The last time I went to a TNA house show was a year ago. To get a backstage pass, you had to buy a Jeff Jarrett guitar for $175 or a Jeff Hardy die cast car for $75. They never specified how many wrestlers you would meet backstage.

How do you know this though? Have you looked at his sig. That's him with The Rock. He knows how to meet people and his specialty is TNA. Trust CM.

No disrespect towards him, I was just looking for more of an answer then that.

Yeah CM is the expert at TNA stuff. I asked him all of my questions before I went to my first TNA house show last October. It was fun however I was let down that certain wrestlers would or could not sign certain belts.. I went with my brother and 3 friends and brought my WHT, a IC title, and a Women's title thinking I would be getting each signed by at least 1-2 people and in the end it was far from that.. If I didn't shell out $80 to meet Jeff Hardy backstage by buying this car thing I would have gotten NONE of my belts signed. The venue was advertising Jeff Jarrett, RVD, Jeff Hardy, Kurt Angle and Mickie plus more but I only really had stuff for former WWE employees so I was expecting to be able to meet them and yeah I got to meet 2 but Jeff cost $80 and Mickie would not [or could not?] sign the Women's title which is the item I really really wanted her to sign.. Going into the house show I was sorta expecting to get RVD, Jeff, and Kurt to also sign the IC, Kurt and Jeff to sign the WHT, and Mickie to sign the Women's it just didn't work out..
So Idk if you want to bring so many belts considering they are such a hassle to carry around. Hell I only had to carry the IC title, my brother and friend had the other two for most of the night and it was annoying me!
I should add that I got to meet others at the signing against the barricade I just only had the program for them to sign considering I mainly have WWE merchandise and primarily wanted my belts to get more sigs. The people I met were: Kazarian, Winter, Brian Kendrick, Gunner or Crimson, and Christopher Daniels. Abyss and Mickie were met at the merchandise stands after that and Jeff was met backstage. He also stayed after to take pictures for $10 or so but anyone who bought the Nascar Hardy thing for $80 had it already included.
So yeah damn I type too much.. Basically don't get your hopes up and maybe only bring 2 belts because 4 would be so awkward!

How do you know this though? Mostly b/c I have been to like 25-30 TNA house shows. How do you know this though? Have you looked at his sig. That's him with The Rock. He knows how to meet people and his specialty is TNA. Trust CM. Thank you for the vote of confidence. The meet and greets ARE generally filled with mid carders. You could get a main event name like a Storm or Roode...maybe. Angle generally is working a table or will be apart of the backstage pass. Any wrestler at the table is almost a zero chance to get WWE stuff signed cuz of Atlas. RVD doesnt like to participate in many of these signings during house shows. From time to time you will see him. Mickie James generally works a table, but even when she is not....she sometimes does not want to sign WWE stuff. Tara has also done that. Just depends on their moods that day. I'm gonna assume that Gail is like that as well. If you need Jeff Hardy...buy the Hardy Party. Its worth it. At a convention....just 1 auto will run at least $35. And the in ring photo is a $20 value AND it allows 2 people to go backstage, so if you split it.....BAM! Big value there. Also the in ring after photo WILL NOT allow you to get anything signed. If you can somehow sneak it past Atlas, Jeff will more than likely do it for you. But if Atlas gets wind of it....they will physically take your item away from you. My next show is this Saturday. Pretty psyched.

Again, thanks for the input. Although i'm kind of disappointed now. Not only am I getting the short end of the stick when it comes to wrestlers being at the house show mostly because all the top name stars are in Europe when my house show is the 22nd. Now i'm apparently not even guaranteed to meet Hardy let alone trying to get him to sign 2 WWE belts.
And CM I googled "Hardy Party" and "Backstage pass TNA" nothing came up about it. So I don't know if this is just something they offer at the show.
To be honest if my friend didn't already get the day off I would probably just give my tickets to me nephew and his mom. And hopefully watch the Patriots play on that day instead.
