Who are 1 or 2 people you really want to meet? It's so easy to just throw out 30 random people and say there's my wish list. Making it even harder and not including people you have already met before which two wrestlers would you like to see at fanfest?
I pick Wendi Richter and Randy Savage.

me personally, good question.
i've spent so much money on trips over the years on wrestling and been to so many places...my first guess would be someone like kevin von erich and ted dibiase. i can't think of anyone i really WANT to meet that i haven't met, that is still alive, that could possibly be here. of course, people like kabuki, dump matsumoto, tatsumi fujinami, fit finlay...people that likely would not be financially viable for this or any event, especially on the east coast.
i say dibiase because i have never met him.
i say von erich because, of all my travels and of all the different family members, i have never seen either von erich live, much less meet either of them. one regret i have always had is not going to charlotte in '84 for the NWA world tag tournament. kevin and david were in it. my one chance to have seen david and i didn't go....
anybody else i WANT to met, are no longer with us or across the oceans...

Dream:
Ric Flair
Randy Savage
Reality:
Windham
Rotunda
Really feel like these would be two versatile guests. Obviously tag champs as US Express, Rotunda also as IRS (he can sign pics of him with DiBiase, Windham, Varsity Club, etc.). Windham could sign Horsemen pics and US Express pics. The great thing about everyone of these tag teams/factions is that almost EVERY member of all of them is alive (I think sans Pillman and Hennig in the Horsemen), so you could get them to sign and then the other person/people in the photos to sign at a later date. Or better yet, have DiBiase, Steiner, Steve Williams, Flair, Anderson, etc. there... lol.

How about some guys we have not seen yet at these:
Barry Windham
Lex Luger-This should be a must as he was a top player from 1987-1991
Butch Reed
Michael Hayes
Mike Rotundo
Paul Ellering
Kevin Von Erich-Would have a huge impact on ticket sales
Sting
Ron Simmons
Dr Death Steve Williams
Sid

Okay we will be vending there. We did sucessfully with Percy Pringle III this past fanfest in Rockville so why not do it again in Charlotte. I do though want to meet some of the people that you guys have listed...especially Ric Flair..man that would be awesome. Windham I have met once but only like hey and whats up type of deal on a show years back. Windham and Rotunda would be a damn good addition to the lineup once things get going. Plus we can not forget that we did not get to meet "Superstar" Billy Graham, would be nice to finally meet him.
Others in mind are:
Kevin Von Erich
One Man Gang
Bill Watts
Steve Williams
Kevin Sullivan
Paul Orndorff
Jerry Lawler
Ted DiBiase
That is a few that would be nice to see in Charlotte next August.

Here's the two I've never met that I would like to:
1. Jerry "The King" Lawler- Hopefully, there's no bad blood here on account of Lawler being pulled from the last Fanfest.
2. Kurt Angle- Now that's he's no longer employed by WWE, this is more feasible I think. Some may disagree with him being considered a "legend" but is he any less of one then The Patriot?

good call with angle.
i think 'legend' is appropriate for him. nowhere does it say a guy has to be past 50 to called a legend. angle has done and overcome more in a decade, especially given his age when he started as a pro, than anybody.
might sell some tickets.

Good thinking Aaron with bringing angle in. He would be a great guest and I am sure would really bring in a lot of ticket sales. Your comment really got me thinking of another guy that has yet to of been mentioned, but I think would be a great guest. That is Chris Jericho. He might not be as old as other legends their, but I believe he has accomplished enough in his career to book him at a legends fanfest.
