Wrestling Stars Reunite In Charlotte, North Carolina;
3-Day, 4-Night Fanfest Features Dozens Of NWA Legends!

The NWA Wrestling Legends Fanfest, three huge days and four nights featuring dozens of wrestling's legendary heroes and villains and a bevy of today's top superstars and future legends, returns Thursday through Sunday, August 14-17, 2008 to the Hilton University Place Hotel in Charlotte.

Stars from the glory days of the National Wrestling Alliance converge on the Carolinas not only to renew old friendships but to rekindle old rivalries. All of the featured legends will be available to sign autographs and take photos with everyone. Lots of reminiscing about the "good ol' days" of wrestling, as well.

Those that have confirmed their appearance at this year's fanfest weekend include featured legends Ole Anderson, The Assassin, Tony Atlas, Jack Brisco, Bob Caudle, Chris Cruise, Ted Dibiase, James J. Dillon, Jimmy Garvin and Precious, Superstar Billy Graham, Rip Hawk, Sam Houston, Sir Oliver Humperdink, Paul Jones, Ivan Koloff, Rich Landrum, Thunderbolt Patterson, Buddy Roberts, Bruno Sammartino and Tommy Young. We will continue to announce the names of our featured legends as they're confirmed and will have the complete list announced by the end of June.

This year's fanfest activities kickoff on Thursday evening, August 14, with a VIP-only, roundtable question-and-answer session. Beginning at 8 p.m., we'll have a free-flowing, open discussion with VIPs and several of our featured legends in this first-time-ever roundtable Q&A, hosted by former WCW Worldwide TV show host Chris Cruise.

Daytime festivities center around the
Autograph Stage and Photo Ops. This is your chance to get your photo taken with and the autographs of dozens of featured wrestling legends.

Fanfest is open Friday and Saturday 10 a.m.-6 p.m. and Sunday 10 a.m.-5 p.m. VIPs get early entrance each day at 9 a.m.

Exhibitors from all over the country with all types of wrestling-related merchandise and memorabilia will be on hand each day. Many will have their own "booth guests" -- current or former wrestlers at their booths signing autographs and taking photos with fans. Please note: You should expect to pay an additional charge for autographs or photos with "booth guests." Visit
Exhibitor Info for an updated listing of exhibitors that have confirmed their booth space and details on any "booth guests" they may have.

A very special late-night Question-and-Answer session will follow Friday evening's Hall of Heroes. The subject(s) have yet to be announced but those of you that have been with us in previous years will remember the late-night Q&As as being wild and no-holds-barred. This year's promises to be no different.

Former WWWF world champions Sammartino and Graham are icons in the sport. In addition to signing autographs and taking photos with fans (including a rare Photo Op of the two together,) the pair will be featured in a Sunday morning question-and-answer session, sharing stories about their historic battles and discussing their larger-than-life careers.

Two huge nights of live wrestling matches will be showcased at this year's fanfest weekend. Our VIP All Access Pass includes a reserved Ringside seat for BOTH nights' matches!

VIP All Access Pass holders will have early admission each day, first access to all autograph signings and photo opportunities, exclusive admission to three revealing Question-and-Answer sessions, and ringside seats to the live wrestling matches both Saturday and Sunday nights! Throw in a free fanfest weekend t-shirt and a VIP All Access Pass with neck lanyard and you have the VIP hookup!

VIP All Access Passes are
on sale now.

Your ticket purchase helps support our efforts to celebrate the tradition of the National Wrestling Alliance and to honor the heroes of wrestling's past and present. Thanks for being part of a truly special weekend. Most folks will tell you it's a remarkable reunion.
