Over the last year or so, I have been looking to revamp my AWA collection. I have 4 AWA rings that I want to display and I’m looking for new ropes for the rings because the originals are either stretched or lost the elasticity from sitting around unused for years. I’m wondering if anybody knows of a place or person here that sells new and/or reproduction ring ropes.

I check eBay every day and haven’t seen any new replacement ropes. I have been looking for months for new AWA ring replacement ropes and I only see used ropes for AWA rings. The only new ropes I see are for current WWE rings and LJN replacement ropes. I will have to keep looking. I’m sure I will find something.

If you check Ebay for “2mm elastic ropes,” those will work. When they come in, measure the perimeter of the ring and conceal the knots under the bead. If you’re in need of replacement “bead” turnbuckles, check Hobby Lobby or any craft store for 1/2” white beads. PM me if you need help. Also, there’s a guy named “Ringskirts” who could help you out.

I still have all of the original bead turnbuckles for the rings. I still have the original ropes, but the problem is that the original ropes were stored in a ziplock bag years ago and sat stored in a storage unit for years. I’m sure that the ropes lost some of its elasticity over the years from just sitting around. When I went to put them on the ring, they were very loose and not as tight as they used to be. I’m trying to find anything close to the original without having to tie it together if that’s still possible.

Being from uk we have zero visibility back in the day of AWA but I'm fascinated by their figures and accessories
