Glad I'm not into WWE, otherwise I'd have to make another trip to Funko HQ.

This is exactly where I'm at right now. So conflicted like Zack Ryder, the Rock, and cm punk are the only ones that would make me want to attend and look who it is .

My general thought is that if the trip is going to cost you $200 or more, then you probably could just buy the Pop from eBay for cheaper. But if you wanted to actually meet him, shake his hand, and get a photo then that might make the trip worth it.

Yeah the pop is kind of like a bonus. I want to meet the man and get a pic so badly. I would even bring my Zack Ryder wig lol

Slightly off-topic, but did you see that Charlotte is doing a book signing at Aunties on Sunday at 1:00?

I did! But I don't know if I'll go since I'm not very interested in the book. But then again, I might go and get the book just in case she would also sign my SD Women Championship. I'll have my mind made by Sunday.

Interesting pop!. So they gave him a NYCC exclusive and a HQ exclusive!

Postby **joecolt** » Wed Sep 27, 2017 11:54 am

very cool pop. Cant head to HQ any time soon so Im hoping to get this one down the road

Postby **Rice71** » Wed Sep 27, 2017 1:51 pm

That be cool if they had a HQ Exclusive of New Day too. Maybe a New Day with the Ice Cream cart.

Postby **Gonzo206** » Wed Sep 27, 2017 2:07 pm

I'm loving that they are doing events like this, hopefully it will continue!

Yes, it's very cool and very unique! I'm a little fearful though if people decide to camp out every time they have an event like this. And I also hope flights aren't too pricey once they do one that I need to go to lol

Well, they DO love surprises. And if it was announced already then it wouldn't really be a surprise so... I'll just pretend like nothings gonna happen... [-o<

If Everett allows people to camp out, I'm sure people will take advantage of it haha. Hopefully you can make it out here for an event!

Definitely not going to be. As popular as WWE is, Zack Ryder is honestly kind of a boring wrestler. Not too many people will be going out of their way to get it, I guarantee it.

I had heard the Marriott was completely booked which made me wonder. I think if something is LE 500, people will line up for it regardless of what it is lol

I suppose that is true, but it definitely won't be as wild as the HQ grand opening was.

Oh for sure. No way as many people will fly out. But I'm guessing some locals and some of the truly hardcore fans might be willing to camp out if the city lets them.

Well, there's also the taping of Smackdown that night, so people could be bunking there.

Google Maps tells me this would be a long drive from Tennessee. lol

So, who's gonna grab one of these for me.

Woo Woo Woo

Postby **FunkoPhoenix** » Fri Sep 29, 2017 3:43 am

I'm going to pass on this event mainly because I don't collect wrestling pops except my Stone Cold Steve Austin Pop! It would be nice to see HQ again, after the grand opening :cheers:

Right now, Zack Ryder is in a tag-team with Mojo Rawley, called the Hype Bros.

I might have to pay up on eBay for one of these. Looking forward to the fye exclusive as well.

You should start my watching again. The roster is the best it's been in a very long time.

Postby **MattyPHATty** » Sun Oct 01, 2017 3:45 am

I will be there! Can't wait and really excited for more events like this at HQ

Gosh I'm way too excited for this.

Zack Ryder has a cult following. He was one of the very first WWE Superstars to embrace social media and had a very popular Youtube show that he made himself which became very popular without the WWE advertising it. He got so popular that it kinda forced WWE give him a short push. He won the WWE Intercontinental title at Wrestlemania XXXII, the title win was very surprising but short lived as he lost the title two days later to The Miz. Zack Ryder is also a huge WWE memorabilia collector and has one of the most complete sets of WWF action figures. He has a complete set of carded LJN action figures from the 1980s and an almost complete WWF Hasbro action figures set from the late 80s and early 90s...which is a large part of the reason he is getting two Pops.

Totally hyped for this! I'm hopping they do more HQ exclusives. I'd love a Jericho with either his light up jacket or scarf. Or a Marty Scrull with the entrance gear he wore for War of the Worlds. Actually any Marty Scrull Pop! would be too sweet.

Postby **philipali** » Mon Oct 02, 2017 8:02 am

I really want to get this one

WWE collector here.. hope someone can help out

Postby **coopscohen** » Tue Oct 03, 2017 3:16 pm

I don't collect WWE but I know it's only a matter of time before HQ releases something that I do. Hopefully it's later rather than sooner with NYCC on the horizon lol
