WWE® Superstars and Divas to Appear During 2015 Wizard World Comic Con Philadelphia, May 7-9
WWE® Superstars Roman Reigns™, Dolph Ziggler™, Randy Orton®, Sting™, and WWE® Diva Paige™ to attend the 15th annual event at Pennsylvania Convention Center.
Philadelphia, PA, March 25, 2015 --(PR.com)-- Five popular WWE® Superstars and Divas will be in attendance at Wizard World Comic Con Philadelphia when Sting™, Roman Reigns™, Dolph Ziggler™, Randy Orton® and WWE Diva Paige™ appear during the 15th annual pop culture extravaganza, set for May 7-10 at the Pennsylvania Convention Center.
Reigns and Paige will appear on Thursday, May 7, greeting fans, signing autographs, posing for dual and solo photo ops and conducting a dual Q&A panel. Ziggler (who will conduct a solo Q&A panel) and Orton will attend on Friday, May 8; Sting is scheduled for Saturday, May 9, and will make a rare appearance in face paint.
“We have rolled out our largest WWE guest list ever for Wizard World Comic Con Philadelphia,” said John Macaluso, Wizard World CEO. “This very special appearance by Sting in face paint is what makes the WWE guests so unique to Wizard World. What an amazing collection of talent under the same roof!”
It will be the first Wizard World appearance for Sting, often dubbed “The Franchise of WCW,” and one of the most recognizable and unique faces in sports-entertainment history. Although his first appearance in a WWE ring will be at WrestleMania 31 at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, Calif., he remains one of the most popular and respected competitors of all-time.
“I am excited to see all my longtime fans for the very first time at Wizard World,” said Sting. “And to commemorate this, I'll be appearing in face paint. This appearance will be truly something special.”
Randy Orton, Roman Reigns, Dolph Ziggler and Paige return to Wizard World after wildly successful appearances at previous shows.
The five join a star-studded lineup of celebrities at Wizard World Comic Con Philadelphia which already includes David Tennant and Billie Piper from the fan favorite “Doctor Who,” Ben McKenzie and Robin Lord Taylor of the hit show “Gotham,” Nathan Fillion (“Castle,” Serenity/”Firefly”), Stephen Amell (“Arrow”), Karl Urban (Star Trek, The Bourne Supremacy), Hayley Atwell (“Agent Carter,” Captain America: The First Avenger), Danny Trejo (Machete, From Dusk Till Dawn), Penn Badgely (“Gossip Girl,” Easy A), Kelly Frye (The Flash), Katie Cassidy (“Arrow,” “Gossip Girl,”) Michael Cudlitz (“The Walking Dead,” “Southland”) and dozens of others.
