Turning to the world of sport, Memorabilia is delighted to welcome British boxing legend and former middleweight and super middleweight world title holder Nigel Benn, as well as such masters of the beautiful game as Portugal World Cup hero Eusébio; Manchester United and England striker Andy Cole; Liverpool and Wales goal-scoring genius Ian Rush; and Nottingham Forest’s famous European Cup winning side, which took the trophy in 1979 and 1980 under Brian Clough.
Wrestling will also be well-represented at the show, with no fewer than five former superstars making the trip to Birmingham – the great Ted ‘Million Dollar Man’ Dibiase and his bodyguard-turned-rival Mike ‘Virgil’ Jones, four-time Intercontinental Champion Scott ‘Razor Ramon’ Hall and a pair of beautiful divas, statuesque sex symbol Dawn Marie and fan favourite Tammy ‘Sunny’ Sytch.
