Beth Phoenix, the Glamazon

Now this is a total rip-off from British Petroleums old logo but I just could not resist doing this one since I thought the text was kind of catchy. And I think the sign turned out nice as well. Unfortunately we never got to show it to Ms Phoenix, she did pass us in the lobby at the hotel we were staying at but we were not prepared! We had all the signs and stuff in our room since we did not think we were staying at the same hotel as the WWE. As soon as we discovered that we did we got the stuff but we never met the Glamazon again. Hopefully there will be another time.

Ted DiBiase & Cody Rhodes

Creating signs is sometimes not so easy, simply because one runs out of good ideas. I have made quite a few bad signs in my days, but also some good ones. I guess this one is in between. The sign is for the tagteam Ted DiBiase & Cody Rhodes and can of course only be used in Barcelona. Its a simple design and I could probably have added a little more but time was not something I had a lot of when this one was made. Quite happy with it though in spite of that we never got to show it to DiBiase & Rhodes. We did however meet both the wrestlers and thats two other stories that will be told in another one of our blogs.

R-Truth

R-Truth is on the Smackdown-roster and we never got to meet any of them this time in Barcelona. We had of course made some new signs for the Superstars and for R-Truth, or Ron Killings, we made one without any drawings. I thought that the message on the sign was more than enough!R-Truth is on the Smackdown-roster and we never got to meet any of them this time in Barcelona. We had of course made some new signs for the Superstars and for R-Truth, or Ron Killings, we made one without any drawings, just a little different colours on the letters to give it a lift. I thought that the message on the sign was more than enough!


Mickie James

What can one say about Mickie James? A lot I guess and all of it positive. When we made the Mickie James-sign we truly ment what we wrote. She was alone worth every penny that we paid for the trip. Its one of my We flew in from Sweden...-signs and nobody deserves it more than her.


My son and Mickie James and the sign. Afterwards we got a hug and the sign got a kiss from Mickie!



The sign and of course Mickie James is written in gold.


Mickies lips left an inprint and needless to say we are keeping this sign, forever!

Cryme Tyme

We have never seen Cryme Tyme before so naturally we had to make a sign for them before going to Barcelona. What I did was just steal one of their catchphrases and added the Spanish flags colours and the colours of Barcelonas football-team. I also tried to write the letters in a kind of graffiti-style. Not to bad...



... and it appears that Shad Gaspar also liked it. Shad was also one of the nicest wrestlers we have met and we have met a few!

Santino Marella

One of our recent favorites in the WWE is Santino Marella. He cuts promos like no other and I would say that he is the most popular "heel" the WWE has today. The Internet show Santinos Casa is a must every week and there was no doubt that a sign had to be created for him before we went to Barcelona.



As you can see the sign plays with Santinos Italian heritage but foremost his own joke about the importance of having a uni-brow.

We also had the pleasure of meeting Santino in Barcelona and he truly is a nice person so both me and my sons favorite team now is of course Santino Uni-ted.



Me and Santino Marella...



...and Santino and my son.
