I'm thinking about getting tickets. Thanks for this.. I might get a price adjustment. If I do, do you know if I have to bring the actual figure with me? Nope. Just the recipe and you'll have to show them the sale. Quick tip for everyone: When I got my Bray Wyatt E28, I had this raincheck for 25% off Elites and its from a different store. What the employee told me was that I couldn't use the raincheck because it's not from their store but still use the raincheck by going to the store I got the raincheck from and get a price adjustment. So basically, get as many rainchecks as you want from any store and you will be able to use them later on when something new comes out and there are no sales(since there is no expiry dates). |

Nice pickup champ and thanks for posting the jericho info. I wonder who the podcast guest will be. I actually think 75 bucks isn't too bad. If you consider the book would cost about 30 bucks anyways. 45 dollars for a photo op and another autograph isn't bad at all. I imagine that jericho will sign the book as well. Hopefully I'm reading the details correctly. It's a bit confusing. Lol. I love how you said "a bit confusing"... That's classic Woodbridge Heroes lol. You going for The Dream Team this weekend? Me and a buddy are probably going to the card show to meet Brutus & Valentine, just because it's closer and earlier on in the day. I will be bringing a few items to get signed such as 2 classic WWF Magazines with Brutus on the cover and my MOC WWF Hasbro figures, 2 of Brutus and of course, Greg "The Hammer". It will probably be expensive, but it's ok. I've got the money and I think it's worth it. |

Just in case you didn't know, they're only signing from 12-1. |

I read a few things on twitter.
1st- Aj aports world replied to a tweet saying they photo ops for beefcake and valentine are going to cost extra.
Also wade Barrett will be at the sportsnet studios tomorrow. Might be a good way to nab an autograph from him.

^Sucks they're charging for photo-ops.. I might have to get Valentine at Heroes then.  I read about Barrett yesterday. I'm gonna try and get an autograph. The studios are about a 10 minute walk from me, so I have nothing to lose. |

Good luck with the printout.. I showed them the ad for the Eugene signing on my phone where it clearly said autographed item plus photo op is $25, but they kept on saying "no". Even Smith Hart says the combo only applies to in-store photos... |

I'm afraid I've got some bad news... you all missed out! As Arun previously mentioned, Wade Barrett is in Toronto this weekend. He was actually the "expert" for the soccer game that was aired on Sportsnet at noon. The Sportsnet studios is a 10 minute walk from me, so a half an hour before noon, I went to the studios hoping I could catch him walking in and get an autograph. It looked like I was too late as it seems like Wade Barrett was already there. Oh well. I went back home and watched the game. At around 2:10, I decide to go back to the studios as the game was almost over.. this time I was hoping I'd catch him walking out. I waited and waited. It was raining and windy which also didn't help. I was waiting by the mini parking lot in between the north and south Rogers buildings. Half an hour later, a black SUV backed up and parked in front of the door. The driver got out and started walking around, I ask him: "Excuse me.. are you Wade Barrett's driver?" and he responded: "not today!" in a mean tone. I waited and waited some more. I walked back and forth from the mini parking lot, and to the window where you could see the actual set of the Sportsnet show. I wanted to make sure that Barrett was still there in the studios and that I was not waiting for nothing. Every time I peeked into the studios, he was still there, so I waited some more. Finally at around 3:30, a big guy walks out the door on the inside. Through the glass, I see Barrett along with other Sportsnet people. I show him the Nexus Armband and marker (while he is still inside), and he nods his head and smiles. He walks out the door and signs my stuff. I tell him that I waited a while for him, but that it was worth it, and he responded "sorry to leave you out in the cold.. it took longer than expected!" As he signed, I asked if I could get a picture after, to which he agreed. One of the Sportsnet people asked for my camera so he could take the picture. After he signed everything, he made sure that I closed my program to make sure that nothing would fly out because of the wind. We posed for the picture and I thanked him and tell him "you're huge!". He laughed and entered that black SUV. That driver that I had previously asked smiled and waved at me lol. I then gathered my stuff and as I did so, another Sportsnet person told me "you got him at the right time! How long were you waiting?" I told him: "one and a half hours, but it's worth it to me!" and he said "yeah, he's a good guy!" Today really tested my patience, but I had a gut feeling that I would end up meeting Barrett, and I did! Autographs:     |
