I've been to a few signings and events recently just for wrestlers, some for just one wrestler, and they have been very busy and very well received so it's a good direction to go in. I've introduced these shows to friends of mine who, like me, are massive wrestling fans and they are now attending your events because of the wrestling guests. So keep them coming. As has been mentioned by others there are many wrestlers wresting over here at the same time this year like the Steiner Brothers, Goldust and many others.

gorefandanny Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 Yes more wrestlers! Ideally more from the Attitude Era, and I reckon they will have a big draw from the kids watching then who are now older and have money to attend these conventions (like moi...)

Mcfly Posted February 7, 2013 Share Posted February 7, 2013 One of the greatest IC champions of all time. Cannot wait for LFCC to come round now... Maybe not the best place to put this but as per Jason's comment above how about trying to get Colt Cobana along. He is also along time fan of HTM and maybe he could do a live Art of Wrestling podcast at LFCC it would certainly help publisize the event among wrestling fans.
