Kinda quiet. I asked Ted why he didnt bring Virgil with him and he kinda chuckled and rolled his eyes. I told him he's probably set up in the parking garage and Rotunda said "He can stay there"...Luger was nice but it killed me watching him struggle a bit cause of his condition. You're looking at a picture of a guy larger than life and he's sitting in a wheel chair struggling to pick up a marker. He was a favorite of mine so it kinda just was a gut punch actually seeing that in person. I met Ted a few years ago, and he was nice enough but didn't say much. I tried talking to him about the figure I was getting signed but he just kind of gave one word answers. Definitely not the best experience of mine meeting a wrestler. I actually left a little disappointed because he was so larger than life on TV and in person he just seemed reserved and kind of like he didn't want to be there. |

He is a good guy but seems very quiet. I talked to him for a bit in 2008 but I was getting many items signed. I think Mike Rotunda would be the most quiet out of him, Ted and Lex. Both Ted and Mike had such loud personalities but in person they are pretty quiet. Lex is the most personable if the fan is open to chatting. Even pre-stroke he would take an interest in who he was signing for or what items they had. I think post stroke he's probably more personable if the fan is engaging, simply because he seems so grateful. His physical condition could be much worse and I think he's grateful that he wasn't totally paralyzed. I really enjoyed the short interview he did with Dave Penzer a few years back at a convention. Lex was so happy to see David after so many years and it just goes against the image a lot of fans put on Lex, that he is a guy who didn't care about anyone but himself. Penzer was probably one of the lowest guys on the totem pole in WCW. |

This Todd auto gets me from the early 80's to 93 for almost an almost complete WWF on air talent collection. I have the heavy hitters of the 80's but a few from the 90's I'm missing. And I can't imagine I'll ever track down Charlie Minn, Joe Fowler, Bill Dunn, Manny Garcia, or Stephanie Wiand for those mid 90's.  |

I actually owned a Manny Garcia autograph for a few weeks. I bought a 1995 program which was signed by Bulldog, Yoko, Diesel, Roadie, Aldo, Shane McMahon, 123 Kid AND Manny Garcia. Charlie Minn did a virtual signing just a few weeks ago. |
