They are currently announcing some of tbe names who will be at the Hall of Fane inductions next Summer by announcing a new name for 12 straight days. The names announced so far are Gerald Brisco, Baron Von Raschke, and Jim Ross (no surprises so far as I think those 3 are regulars even though Von Raschke and Ross had to miss last year’s event.)

Wow! Um, that is pretty freaking awesome! (I better start saving the money for autographs.) I hear you. I want to get some more autographs for my WWE Encylcopedia. I actually already have Sergeant Slaughter's autograph in my WWE Encyclopedia as I met him (along with Roddy Piper whose autograph I also have in my WWE Encyclopedia) at WWE Axxess prior to Summerslam 2010 in Los Angeles outside of Staples Center. Of the 4 announced names so far, I also have Gerald Briscoe's autograph in my WWE Encyclopedia (I got it in Iowa last July) but I don't have either Jim Ross or Baron Von Raschke's autographs in my WWE Encyclopedia yet. I am really hoping to go this year by first visiting Minneapolis for a day or two, but I probably won't know for sure until the first Friday of June when I get my possible employment status for the Summer confirmed (extra money means I can go.) Hopefully I will see you again in Waterloo next Summer iowaoaks! |

I remember having trouble finding him in the book while standing in the autograph line one year! There's more names coming, stay tuned!! |

author Brian Shields was announced today Brian did a seminar at the HOF weekend a few years ago regarding the creation of the WWE Encyclopedia. It was very interesting and he was super accessible to fans. As a fan himself, he collects the WWF Coliseum Video VHS releases. At that time, he only had three more needed to complete the collection. Halfway through the annoucements, six more to come! |

Hopefully I will see you again in Waterloo next Summer iowaoaks! You can count on it! So, do we start talking about an official/unofficial side Galacticon? Do we consider trying to set up a table and sell the game? Chad, thoughts? |

Do we consider trying to set up a table and sell the game? Chad, thoughts? We would give you a table for free, but I have no time during the weekend to do anything but help run the two IPW shows and Saturday’s autograph session at the museum. Perhaps you and Zeke could it? |
