Over the weekend I went to a TNA house show in Poughkeepsie, New York. Prior to the show, myself and my friend went behind the arena with all the other fans to try and score autographs/pictures with the wrestlers as they arrived. After a while, the wrestlers were arriving and I managed to see Tomko arrive. As he was getting his stuff out of the back of his car, my friend was going on how he was going to ask Tomko to "give him a beat." So as Tomko was walking away from the car, I decided to yell "Tomko! Give me a beat!" Tomko then looked at me from like 30 feet away and mouthed "No."
Jealous much? ;D
BTW - The show was great. I managed to score front row seats. Also afterwards, they did their whole meet and greet thing with the wrestlers at ringside. I managed to meet some of the roster that I couldn't prior to the show starting. All in all an excellent show.

I love stories like this, where wrestlers totally play into our fads. Like there is a Crapper (can't remember who) who got Jericho to sign his book for him, and Jericho wrote "Armbar!" next to his signature! I want that. I want to get No'd by Tomko too.

Tomko's Cool. Now we need to get somebody to doubt El Dandy in front of Bret Hart, or stel JBL's clothes and get him to chase them down the street.

Well if memory serves me correctly, Team 3D did not partake in the signing after the show. I don't really remember the rest as myself and my friend were on the line to meet Angle. Prior to the show I managed to meet...
Simon Diamond (Who when I asked for an autograph and a picture with him, he said "f*** no", only to say "Just kidding, I'll gladly do it.") Consequences Creed Traci Brooks Rhino James Storm Samoa Joe ECW's Atlas Security Hernandez Homicide
ODB was signing autographs but I didn't get a chance to meet her.
BTW - Chris, I live in Sullivan County. I'm a little ways from Poughkeepsie.

Yeah, I saw Simon at our show, and tried to get his attention, but I couldn't get to the front. The sad thing was, I gave up my spot behind the soundboard for a kid that couldn't get to the front. So, I pretty much missed everyone.
And 'Cide and Hernandez were cool, they were talking to the fans even before their match against James Storm and Shark Boy(!) started.
