Yeah, but it would be more profitable  to get  noteworthy names insted of "who" names to people born after 1980. I do realize alot of people who go to alot of conventions are happy to get the older  less known rare names but for myself and I'm sure alot of others we'd like to meet some people who've been on tv in the past 20 years.  For the record the "lower" former wwe talent I've listed is people who I personally need to meet to get finished with them.

We've covered this many times in the past. This is, after all, a "Legends" fanfest. It's not just for "some people who've been on tv in the past 20 years."
 
I understand the want/need of the younger folks to meet "lower, former WWE talent," and believe me you'll have plenty of that with the vendor guests brought in. But you won't see folks like that -- just any old somebody thats been on tv since 1990 -- taking a spot for a featured guest.
 
Granted, I never met Mickey Mantle, Ted Williams, or Babe Ruth. Long before my time. But that doesn't make them any less a "legend" in baseball. And some that played with them, while equally as accomplished, are "who" players for me. Again, it doesn't detract from their accomplishments just because I'm not familiar with them.
 
We're still VERY EARLY in the game for next year's fanfest weekend, and a long time before most of the major guest announcements are made. But by the time next August rolls around, I'm confident you will find something you like.

Thank you, don't get me wrong though I'm a huge wccw fan and like about any wrestling after the late 70's. I know in the northeast they have all those conventions and it gets frustrating to promoters trying to bring in "fresh talent".  That isn't the case in Atlanta we don't get conventions very often around here so about any well known name would be great( except Virgil LOL).

Okay, you have a point there. Just because I don't know a wrestler it doesn't take away from their accomplishments. Alot of wrestling fans today may not know who they are but they made some noteworthy contributions in their day. That being said it isn't all about talent that's been on tv in the past 20 years.  Id be thrilled to meet kevin von erich, Lance von erich, iceman parsons, buddy roberts, michael ps Hayes, magnum ta, tom zenk.

If you have never attended one of these events you are in for such a treat. Such a great value for all you get for the money.
There is always  an abundance of Booth Guests that I am sure will fit your fancy.
 
 
Hopefully we will be there again it is too early for me to plan that far pending ongoing family situations.

We don't really get wrestling conventions around Atlanta like they do in the Northeast so Ive put down about everybody I either need to meet for the first time or need to meet again to finish up with them. Yes I know most of the people I've listed won't end up on the superticket. I'm hoping some of the vendors read this and might get some of them. like people have said before the vendors will provide a wide variety of talent.

While I'm not big on the newer names (not just because it's a legends show, but because they don't really interest me personally), I wouldn't mind seeing some of the Shimmer wrestlers.  Not as "Special Guests" obviously, but on the weekend wrestling cards and maybe in the vendor area for autographs and photo ops.
 
It's actually the only company I'm following right now.

Unless something changes I'm just going for the vendor guests as no one except the Funks interest me.  Several of the wrestlers mentioned on here I have no clue who they are (mainly the ones from the 60's). I'm a relatively younger wrestling fan, I'm  looking to get the most out of this like I mentioned before unfortunately we don't get many wrestling conventions in Atlanta and I'm trying to get the most of this. If I can just get 2 people on my list I'll be happy.

I'd like to meet Jake Roberts and Steiner Brothers. I've heard bad things about them both. I know Jake was there this year was he nice and fun to meet. How about the Steiners they've always been my favorite tag-team and I've always wanted to meet them. Last time they were in town I was out of town.
 
What are ya'll opinions of them, if you've met them?
 
Any chance of them being there this year?
