I was at the signing in Queens on Saturday with my friend who flew in from Arizona. We were originally going to the night to remember banquet(we are huge Randy and Elizabeth fans, and also love Lanny, we were ecited to represent the Madness that night) , but as we know it was cancelled. Happy the other promoter took over and salvaged what was left of the signing the next day.
We had a mission: Pictures! with Jay Lethal, Howard Finkel, Jake Roberts, Jimmy Snuka, and Jim Duggan. Before we walked into the room, Jay saw my friend's shirt and said "your shirt is cool!" (she was wearing a cut up version of the the light purple macho man shirt from the 80s). We knew we were going to have an amazing experience after that! We got pics with all of the guys, and they were all super nice! Jake was scary and way taller than I had ever though he was! I was wearing a shirt of Randy holding up Elizabeth on his shoulders after he won at WM4 and showed it to Jake saying "I brought your favorite couple with me!" And he smiled. Then I told him he was still terrifying, in a good way.
Howard Finkel was so so sweet, I knew he was going to be. Such an honor and pleasure to talk to him and shake his hand! We exchanged promo talk with Jay Lethal, cracking him up. We were beyond ecstatic to meet him! Jimmy Snuka was very sweet and we got a a great shot with him in his signature pose. Jim Duggan was also so nice and more than happy to talk and take a picture. Really great experience overall! We couldn't stop talking about it all day. We totally marked out!!!
