’80s Wrestling Trivia Contest
We will be hosting a special ’80s Wrestling Trivia Contest at 80’s Wrestling Con 2! Throughout the day, we will be roaming the floors of the Con and picking random fans to answer questions. If they get the answer right, they win wrestling merchandise. Be sure to do your homework before the Con, because the questions will not be easy!
LJN Collectors Corner
The old WWF LJN figures were a staple in 80’s wrestling and are still super popular to this day. We will have a special section at 80’s Wrestling Con 2 where fans can show off and display their LJN figures! They can talk with other collectors about them and even trade figures. So if you have LJN figures still new in package and want to show them off, bring them to the LJN Collectors Corner!
