7 Strangest WWE Fandom Trends From The Internet

6. Video Killed The Convention Star

1157680

There was a time when if a WWE fan craved a personal experience with their favourite Superstar, their traditional option was to find out when they were coming to their city for some kind of convention or book signing. They could then buy tickets to the event, wait in a long line, shell out some more money to get their autograph and a photo, have the ten second meet and picture smile then get hustled out of the way by an assistant.

But now, that same person could just go to a website, pick the person out of a lineup, enter Paypal info, drum up a little message for the superstar to relay to them then sit back and wait for the personalized video message to return, in about two weeks. 

Celeb VM bills itself as a "fun way for celebrities and fans to connect via video messages", allowing superstars to continue their love affair with the attention.

 Supporters of General E. Rection and former trainer, Bill Demott will be happy to hear his messages are only $25; to get a Mozel Tov from Zahra Schreiber, or find out how life is going without Seth Rollins be prepared to shell out 35 bucks. 

There are about a million better ways to propose to a girlfriend than having Referee Chris Sharpe do it in a video message, but at least it won't break the bank at $10. 

A late 90's WWE or WCW Superstar like Kurt Angle or Booker T will cost $50, but they really give it that extra pop where it counts. Surprisingly former superstar John Morrison charges $200 for such a service. Unless he does parkour in it, that seems steep. 

The site emphasizes you can buy them for a friend, although it may be optimistic to assume the people buying Celebrity Video Messages have friends.
