Mr. Mal back again with a quick listing of all the events scheduled as a lead-up to World Wrestling Entertainment’s Wrestlemania 23 at Ford Field, April 1, 2007. For those within shoutin’ distance of Detroit, MI, the WWE is offering plenty of chances to get up-close and personal with several of your favorite WWE Superstars. Get yer datebooks out and mark’em down. Opportunities like this don’t come around everyday, and in Mr. Mal’s experience, you will rarely find athletes or entertainers of any sort more-friendly and genuinely glad to meet their fans as are wrestlers. Well . . . except for Dynamite Kid, but that’s another story, and thankfully, he won’t be on the tour:

1. First, for all those looking to attend the WWE Hall of Fame Ceremony (to be held March 31 at 7 p.m. at the historic Fox Theatre) tickets will go on sale this Saturday, March 3, at 10 a.m. through the usual outlets, including Ticketmaster. Who knows? You may even see the masked Mr. Mal in attendance at that one. Thus far, inductees announced include Dusty Rhodes “The American Dream”, the late, great “Mr. Perfect” Curt Hennig and Jerry “The King” Lawler.
2. Friday March 9 and 10th will offer fans the chance to meet two popular WWE performers as part of the annual Autorama car show at Cobo Center in Detroit, MI. On Friday, meet Torrie from 7 - 9 p.m.; while on Saturday, the greatest active masked wrestling performer on the circuit today, Rey Mysterio, will be appearing from 12 - 2 p.m.
3. Tuesday, March 27 will see fans have a chance to welcome WWE Superstars to Windsor as they arrive via train at the Windsor Train Station on Walker Road.
