    We will know closer to the time. I want to find out too for booking a hotel possibly.

    My bet would be the Maldron near the o2/Jurys Custom House but they won't release that info to the public. Its always the Hilton in Belfast.

    Even if you do find out where they are staying,many of the hotels wont allow fans heckling the wrestlers.I've noticed that the hotels have gotten stricter and stricter with that everytime the WWE come over

    Give it up already kid, If they're gonna socialise, the lobby ain't gonna be the place.

    I cant blame them either to be honest.Its one thing standing quietly in the lobby to meet them, and another to start causing ruckus.There are other guests staying at these posh hotels aswell...

    Your better off just leaving them alone. If i was a wrestler and was having a few beers after a show and had some geek come up to me, id tell him where to go.

    But then when you're desperate for money and doing any kind of independent booking you can get your hands on, there's one less person going to be buying your 8x10 promo shot.


    Fan interaction is part of the job. Provided you're not eating or taking a crap, you should be happy to sign stuff. Thats my opinion on it, anyway.

    But if your on a tour you would expect that.
    Book a private room, a vip section or something.


    If you were having a few scoops your not going to expect a bunch of ten year olds to come and annoy you.

    If it was in this country it would probably be a respectful fan who could approach you, ask you to sign something, get a pic and then move away with the same respect.
    Job done.

    Of course if it was some gob wanting to discuss something stupid like the 97 survivor series then im with you John!

    Completely disagree with KKV's point. Hey KKV, next time someone tries to talk work related stuff with you on non work related time, let's see if you're as understanding. ;)

    CBG put it together a lot better, however there is a time and a place. If they do greets before the night, that's understandable, but when they've just spent 20 minutes being bumped around and physically abused (for want of a better term), then expect them to not want to do the socialising thing.

    I know i wouldn't, if put in their shoes.

    I've hung around behind a few venues waiting for the band to come out after the gig hoping that I'd catch them on the way out. Can you not do the same thing with wrestlers ?

    Following someone to a hotel is a bit excessive and intrusive if you ask me.
