WCW: The Best of Clash of the Champions

Hello wrestling fans, it’s time for another DVD review. Watching WCW: The Best of Clash of the Champions brought back so many memories. Helped me remember how much I hated WCW. I must admit, the only thing that made WCW worth watching is the quality in the matches. The very first match presented was the main event of the first ever Clash of the Champions back in 1988, between "The Nature Boy" Ric Flair vs. Sting for the NWA World Heavyweight Championship.

Chavo Guerrero Jr. in Queens, New York

Hello again wrestling fans, my family and I just met Chavo Guerrero Jr. at the Wrestling Universe in Queens, New York, this was a fantastic event.  We had an awesome conversation with Chavo Guerrero, we asked him if he was going to TNA and if he liked the Kerwin White gimmick he once had in the WWE. I also told him that he needed to become the leader of “Mexican America” and he said we will see. I have attended many wrestling autograph events and I have to admit that the Wrestling Universe is the best, they give you ample time with each wrestler and we are treated like family when we are there. The staff at the store is very welcoming and I highly recommend the store for anything that pertains to wrestling. The first ever autograph session I attended was held by the Wrestling Universe, this is why I have preference for this store. I have met many wrestling legends like Superstar Billy Graham, Terry Funk, and Kevin Sullivan. They also bring current wrestlers’ like Rey Mysterio, Shelton Benjamin, and AJ Style. So if you are in the New York City area, make it your business to visit the store.

Mick Foley in New York City

Mick Foley

Hello again wrestling fans. My family and I just met Mick Foley at Royal Collectibles in Queens, New York. Mick was great, he gave us conversation and I was really impressed with his interaction with his fans. He liked the fact that we had the Jakks Pacific classic superstars limited edition, three pack series autographed by Terry Funk and Sabu. It was finally completed his Cactus Jack’s signature. We also had our Undisputed Championship belt signed, which he suggested should only be signed by the elite wrestling superstars.
