Glory Days Grapplecon brings wrestlers across eras to Orlando this weekend
If you’re still riding high on Wrestlemania fumes, try hearkening back to the golden age of pro-wrestling at this weekend’s Glory Days Grapplecon.

Put on by the same students of the game who organized the Championship Wrestling From Florida fanfests, Glory Days is a level-up: more special programming, bigger venue, more and bigger-name guests.

The main attraction is an afternoon of signings and meet-and-greets featuring a bunch of certified wrestling legends including Stan “The Lariat” Hansen (a coup, frankly), One Man Gang, Missy Hyatt, Bobby Fulton, Matt Riddle, D-von Dudley, Florida punk wrestler Mad Maxine, Tommy Fulton, Ivelisse, Abdullah the Butcher, Jack Victory, Ron Simmons and many more.

The slate of events includes a pre-show wrestling "Lessons With the Lariat" event on Friday that features a Q&A with Hansen — and given all his years brawling around the world, he likely has infinite stories to tell — as well as an after-hours tell-all with Victory. A great outing for both old and young fans of pro wrestling.

10:30 a.m. Saturday, April 20, Rosen Centre.
