It is happening, people!
Big Event adds Gangrel, Rocky Johnson, & Demolition to 18th lineup
We have GUEST ANNOUNCEMENTS for Big Event 18! Let’s take a look:
Gangrel is the Big Event’s $25 Admission Guest. You’ll gain admission to Big Event 19 and receive a free autograph from a wrestler – Gangrel in this case – for $25. Sounds like a good deal to me!
And we have a couple of vendor announcements:
Captain’s Corner adds WWE Hall of Famer Rocky “Soul Man” Johnson to their lineup while…
…RDP, Warriors of Wrestling, and Sorrentino Promotions add Ax and Smash of Demolition.
Big Event and Legends of the Ring announce headliners for next shows!

TMART announces Sgt. Slaughter for Big Event 18 — and a dual photo op with General Adnan
Here’s a fun announcement from TMART:
Slaughter has been around the Northeast convention circuit for a long, long time but a dual photo op with Adnan is a great way to give his appearance a bit of a refresher.
My bite-sized Big Event 17 Report!
It came down to the wire.
I knew months in advance that work would threaten my attendance to the Big Event 17. I couldn’t risk pre-ordering a $20 admission ticket let alone any vendor guests and, if you know me well, I am always #TeamPreOrder. Give me 3-5 months to spread the wealth around and, BAM, that’s how I can afford to get 20-25 guests.
I didn’t have that luxury this time.
The probability of my attendance was 50/50 on Thursday evening but, thankfully, I was given the go-ahead on Friday morning. This would be a new experience for me: limited funds, passing on names I’d like to get, and tackling this solo. Let’s see how I did.
Quick shoutout to a reader of the blog! We met by the Wippleman line and you told me your name but, sadly, I couldn’t really hear it over all the noise! Either way, great to meet you bud and, YES, I WILL DO A BIG EVENT 18 PRE-ORDER PAGE!

It’s been apparent for years and years – and years – that LOTR had outgrown the ole Crown Plaza/Ramada Plaza hotel in Monroe, NJ. It’s been called “a dump” and that may sound harsh but it’s also fair.
Here’s an actual floor-plan:
Finally, discounted G.A. tickets are on sale:
