Oh that New Day line was ridiculous. They put them out there Sunday morning, and because they have a match, that of course everyone knew about, they only put them out there for 1 hour... I heard they capped the line at 50 people. That's pretty rough. Those lines moved sooooooooo slow!

I'm glad to hear you got to meet Sasha & Bayley! I know a LOT of people didn't. I was around both of them on media day and they were both extremely laid back.

WrestleCon was a whole different stories, I'll be updating my signed MOC thread shortly with my gets.

I've never met Sasha, but when I met Bayley at the Performance Center back in January, she was awesome, such a cool person and loves to chat with her fans as long as she can.

She was everything I expected. Meeting her was one of the best parts of my trip.

As you said, Axxess was hell this year. They either need to sell fewer tickets to the sessions or change the signing aspect of the event to make it faster. I made a few suggestions on the Feedback form you could fill out when you left. I got in line for the 8am Saturday session and 6am and there were still people in front of me. So is it always setup so that nobody knows who you're waiting in line for? That sounds pretty stupid.

Eventually they put signs up and the put it on the WWE app but at that point all the good lines are full. It sucks for the talent too. A bunch of people got in one line hoping for Bayley and Bo Dallas came out. Everyone took off running lol. I felt bad for him.

So is it always setup so that nobody knows who you're waiting in line for? That sounds pretty stupid. Here's the picture. Doors open, there are about 8 sig booths. At this point, you don't know who will be at what booth. You stand in a random booth hoping it'll be someone you want to meet, and if you're a collector with a specific item you want signed, hoping that it's that person. Then, everyone starts coming to their booths. Once everyone is sitting down, the WWE app is updated to tell you who is at which booth. At this point, you find that, for example, New Day is at the Snickers booth, while your line is Darren Young. So you get out that line and rush to the Snickers booth, only to find that line is super backed up, and cut off within seconds cause they're there for an hour on the morning of WrestleMania. Mind you, this session sold out, I'm sure, because New Day was scheduled for it. So that's it.

They know people didn't come from all over the world to see David Otunga, so why put him in this position to begin with?

I didn't even know Otunga still worked there until I saw him hanging out in the elimination chamber lol

Zack Ryder was in there on Thursday, I think he deserved better, at least put him at the Mattel booth. Eventually they put Tyler Breeze at the MITB Photo Booth, they could have been paired together really, that wouldn't have been bad.

While I was waiting for Sasha my gf went to Kane's line to get my E12 figure signed. She got to the front of the line and was told he's not signing. His line was photo ops only. No exception. So she left because she didn't want a picture with him lol.

They only hold into him because his wifes a real celeb and so are a bunch of his friends like steve harvey. Wwe is the redheaded stepchild of entertainment and thus they cling to anything to make them seem more legit.

I attended three axxess sessions at WresteMania 31 in San Jose and didn't experience nearly as much trouble as it seems their was in Dallas. Even in the superstore I recall getting in and out with our merchandise with relative ease. Hardly any waiting at all to check out.
