The National Wrestling League are thrilled to offer an exclusive VIP meet & greet with football legends Neil Ruddock and Keith Gillespie!
The Newcastle United and Liverpool legends will be meeting fans and posing for a photo op together before the inaugural National Wrestling League event on August 9th.
You will be entitled to one autograph with each player, should you have your own item you would like to be signed.
Neil Ruddock is a Liverpool legend who is famous for his hard-hitting style – from headbutts to strong tackles – and was voted the 17th hardest footballer of all time back in 2013. During his career, Ruddock won the League Cup with Liverpool, the UEFA Intertoto Cup with West Ham in 1999 and capped for England. In the years since retirement, Razor has released a memoir, appeared on I’m A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! and has become a popular TV personality.
Keith Gillespie began his career at Manchester United, but made a name for himself following a switch to Newcastle United in 1995. Gillespie lifted the League Cup with Blackburn Rovers in 2002 and played for his home country Northern Ireland 86 times, making him the 10th most capped player in the country’s history. Keith released his critically-acclaimed autobiography How Not To Be A Football Millionaire in 2013 following a crippling gambling addiction and has been an inspirational voice in the sport ever since.
The meet & greet will take place prior to the National Wrestling League event on August 9th at the Vertu Arena.
The photo op session is accessed through the side entrance, not the main arena entrance.
A ticket for the National Wrestling League event MUST be purchased separately.
