HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #631 - FANFEST


Hello fans and welcome to HCW’s Fanfest here in (cold) Colorado Springs, Colorado.  It’s a sunny day but if you’re not dressed warm enough, the chill may get to you.  One place it’s not cold – FANFEST.   The event is sold out.  Wrestlers from both the Tacoma and Phoenix brands are here interacting with the fans however some (Ant Graham and his Ghouls – Dr. Red Fang, Mason the Mangler and Covfefe) are mocking the fans as they walk by so they’re not getting much in the way of foot traffic.  The Ambassador’s two teams Elitism (Reid and Roderick Rothchild & Ravishing Raquel) were seated separately from the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel).  Even though the Curtain are not on the best of terms with their fans, they had a decent amount of people show up for pictures and autographs (gluttons for punishment?). 

We also saw that “Sign Guy” walking around the fanfest with a picket sign reading “Why Davis Why?” 

For the most part, except for the Ghouls and the Unknown Assassin (and his manager J C Dykes), everyone was on their best behavior.  Southern Belle was a few tables down from her PPV opponent the Duchess so those sitting in between could feel the tension.  The returning El Gato Negro had a huge line at her table.  The tag team champs Hoff n Spicy (Davis ‘the Hoff’ Hoffmeister and DJ CJ Spice) also had a solid fan base waiting for autos and pics.  Ice Dagger had a sign at his table that read “Make Ice Dagger Great Everywhere Today”. 

The event ran for a good 8 hours with most fans getting what they wanted.  After the convention ended, the wrestlers packed up and started to make their way up to Denver for this weekend’s show.  A few of the wrestlers hung out at local restaurants and bars to interact more with their fans. 


That’s all we have for today.  We’ll be back on Friday for Day 1 of our Apocalypse PPV.  Stay Tuned!
