New shoots filmed this weekend by RF VIDEO are the following Brian Blair, Brian Adias, Ox Baker, Magnum TA and Mark Lewin. we will also be getting in the near future Austin Idol and the Wild Somoans shoots that were filmed this weekend by our good friends who did the Flair shoot.

Amazing is the only word that comes to my mind that I could use to sum up this entire weekend!! We had alot of goals to meet once we started our long journey down to Charlotte NC just a few days ago. We met every goal and then some. I was looking forward to this weekend since the start of the summer. It has been a tradition for our company to be apart of every NWA Legend Fan Fest for the last seven years. Out of all seven of them, this one took the cake for being the best one all time.

Our journey began a few months ago when we planned our guests for this weekend. As most of you know by now Kevin Nash pulled out on us which led us into a corner. I needed another guest that would be of equal or greater value. There was only one name that I felt that was missing from his weekend and that needed to be there and that was Dusty Rhodes. As soon as I told him the situation that I was in he told me that he was in and not to worry. Dusty is a class act all the way and we can't thank him enough for his contribution on Friday. We had a line that never died down for three hours. I was more than happy on the way that all turned out.

On Saturday we had the Steiners, at our table. That signing went very smooth as well. The funny thing was when we arrived to the airport on Friday night they were both supposed to be on the same flight. Well as we were pulling in we got a call from TNA and I was told that Scott missed his flight and was just going to drive in. I was a little nervous but Scott is not known for no showing and RIc told me I had nothing to worry about. As soon as Ric got in the car he called Scott and confirmed he was just a few hours outside of Charlotte. We were supposed to do a mystery shoot this weekend but that got put on the back burner for now due to the circumstances and I am sure you can all figure out who that was going to be with or should I say what tag team that was going to be with.

Speaking of shoots and I don't want to give away to much right here in this news report but we did a ton of amazing shoots this past weekend.

On Thurdsday night we sat down with Brian Blair for his first ever shoot interview of all time. It went on for 3 hours and it was non stop amazing WWF stories after another. Brian for the first time talked about his most recent family troubles on record and you will find out what really happened. Wait until you hear what he had to say about the Iron Sheik. If your a fan of Florida championship wrestling your going to want to watch his interview. Brian had so many stories on everyone in the WWE. I will have a much more in depth report this week coming up on his interview!!

We also filmed a shoot on Thursday with long time wrestler Brian Adias from the World Class era. It was two hours of just talking about that promotion and all of the troubles of the Von Erichs. You will be amazed at what Kerry had to say at his own brothers funeral. You want to hear about drugs and all of the Von Erich crazy behind the scene stories well this shoot is a must for you to own.

Speaking of World Class we just picked up a ton of the new WWE version of the World Class story which will be on sale soon.

Getting back to the weekend after each night we were able to hang out with so many of the guys that I grew up watching. Being at these conventions really brings out the mark in me. The highlight of the entire weekend was when Ric Flair came up to the RF VIDEO table to hang out with Dusty Rhodes. This time Ric was not sneaking out the back door. I was able to capture a magical photo opp that nobody else has been able to do for years. I got Ric and Dusty in the same picture with me, and to say that I was in heaven would be a understatement. Here were the two guys that I grew up watching, who had one of the longest running programs against each other taking a magical photo with me. I was on cloud nine for the rest of the weekend.

By the way you can view all of my mark out moment pictures on my myspace page over at myspace.com/kfabe as I just created a new folder tonight with my mark out moments over the last few years and the last 2 pages include this weekends magical pictures.

You can also view the pictures on my facebook.com/therealrobfeinstein page. If you are not able to see the pictures you must send me a friend request and I will accept you. I check both accounts daily.

Some of the other pictures from the weekend also stand out. I got a few other really neat pictures with Jim Cornette and Jimmy Hart posing with myself. I consider them two of the best talkers of all time. The other guy that I really wanted to meet all weekend was Austin Idol. I had talked to Idol years back about doing a shoot but we could never agree on money. I was lucky to meet him thru our good friends who brought him in who also conducted a new shoot with this Memphis legend. We will be selling this shoot in the near future. I can't wait to watch it myself. Another amazing moment for me was when Tommy Rich came up to the table to greet Austin and I was able to mark out and get a pic with both of these two together. As I stated before I felt like Paul Heyman from back in the 80's standing between the two as he used to manage these two amazing talkers. Hey at least we are both Jewish.

I also took alot of other rare pictures thru out the weekend. I was able to get a pic with two of the biggest bad asses from Japan together like Stan Hansen and Big Van Vader with his mask on. I met a true legend Danny Hodge and this is no BS but my hand hurt for 3 minutes from his super strong hand shake. I also got a rare pic taken with Dusty and Backlund together as well. Another rare photo opp took place at our table with Ric and Scott Steiner and the Nasty Boys. Brian Knobbs was yanking my hair during the pic so I might now have a bald spot.

I will be adding more pictures to my page as well as I am missing a few like with Reid Flair who looked very healthy this weekend. I was able to get to know him a little better and he is looking forward to getting back on track which is a good thing. Another guy I was happy to meet was Howard Finkel. He is a true class act as well. He watches all of the RF VIDEO shoots and is just a great guy all around.

I also was able to meet a ton of my heroes from Memphis as well. For the first time in a long time I was able to sit down and talk with Jerry Jarrett. He also was with the Fargos who I never met before. In a real treat I got another mark out picture with Dave Brown and Lance Russell. It was a real treat for me to be with all of these guys that I grew up watching.

I felt like I was back in the 80's and all my role models stepped out of their TV set and landed in the hotels lobby. Actually where ever you turned you were around these true legends.

We also got a ton of new merchandise autographed for sale as well. I had Austin Idol sign only 4 of his Memphis DVD's and I had Dusty sign a few of his RF VIDEO shoots for us as well. They will go on the site next week and we had Dusty and the Steiners sign a bunch of their 8X10's.

We sat down on Saturday night after catching a few hours of a break with Ox Baker for his first ever RF VIDEO shoot interview. I had no idea what to expect from Ox. I have met him dozens of times over the years and he was always loud and obnoxious. I would avoid him at all costs. Well after being around him in our room for a few hours I realized that was just Ox being in mode. He really is a super smart guy and very smart to the business. The guy can cut a promo too. The real treat for this interview was when Bill Watts heard Ox as he was going to his room and knocked on our door and watched some of the shoot!! I will have more on his interview this week too.

I visited the Concord Mills Mall on Sunday where I used to have my Pro Wrestling Shop almost 7 years ago. We also treated ourselves to Steak n Shake since we dont have them back home.

I also conducted his first ever RF VIDEO shoot interview with Magnum TA today, that lasted almost 3 hours and we covered everything from his start in Florida, Portland, Midsouth and of course the NWA. We talked about everything with him and I will have a full report on this as well.

I ran into Steve Corino again who I have not seen in about a year since his trip to Puerto Rico. We had a blast hanging out with all the guys from Signamania and the LOTR conventions. At night it was just one big party scene with everyone hanging out. We had so much fun just hanging around the hotel with everyone. Another highlight of the trip was the slap heard around the world which only a few will know about. It was classic indeed!! I will talk about that in my next shoot in a few years.

We will also be getting shoots to sell in the future with Mark Lewin and The Samoans Afa and Sika that were conducted this weekend!!!

For the last 3 nights I ate over at my new favorite Sushi Bar, Sushi 101. I love that place. This hotel has so many places to eat around it as it sits on this board walk. There is so much to do around here so it's never a dull moment. Right now I am in my room just thinking about all of the stuff I will need to do this coming week.

All orders and Emails will be going out as soon as we get back to the office which will be Tuesday at 9AM. I have a long ride ahead of us. The most amazing thing is now being able to drive down the highway doing 90 and being able to actually go online on my laptop as if I was sitting in my home. If only I was able to do this 10 years ago during ECW, the trips would have been so much better.

I could go on forever just talking about all the guys that I had run into down here from Abby to the Fantastics. Another guy that I must put over and he is by far one of the most fun guys to be around is Brian Knobbs. I have had a blast being around him as he reminds me of the Sandman. WHen he drinks he is a little out of control and scary at times because he has that bad ass reputation. But he is by far one of the funniest guys of all time. On Friday they were done early at the table where they were set up at and they were staying here another night so they asked me when Dusty left if they could take over his spot and hang at our table for the remaining few hours. I said yes in a second as I knew it would only attract the fans to our table and who better than the Nasty Boys to do that. Brian just busts on everyone that he sees. He was ribbing alot of the guys from all the way accross the banquet room. He is very loud to say the least. I am trying to work on that Hogan shoot guys thru them so we shall see what happens.

This was the second time I worked with Scott and he was very cool to work with. The first time we worked with him we did not hit it off as he was very stand offish during his shoot. Well I told Ric about it and he was right, he just did not know me at all. Well yesterday we had some time to talk shop and he was just totally different. He asked me if Flair was still there as he wanted to slap him in the face if he saw him. Lucky for Ric that he was off yesterday. Scott just seems like the type that that takes no crap from anyone and has no problem saying what is on his mind. If you don't agree with him what can you really do? He was great and both Steiners went the xtra mile with the fans and went over and beyond for RF VIDEO and we want to thank Scott and TNA for working with us once again.

I can't thank the fans enough who made this weekend a huge success for our company and also Greg Price who put together a home run convention. I have big plans for next years event as well.
