đ„ BUILDING BRIDGES FROM VEGAS TO THE BLOCKCHAIN đ„
When the biggest wrestling convention in the world calls, you better be ready to deliver.
And this year, Wrestling Organization Online (WOO) and Hive didnât just show up at WrestleCon 2025... We made a statement.
Held from April 17th to 20th at the iconic Westgate Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, WrestleCon 2025 wasnât just another event, it was the heartbeat of the wrestling world. Thousands upon thousands of fans poured into the historic venue, filling the convention halls with the nonstop roar of excitement, nostalgia, and raw passion that only wrestling can create. The same walls that once hosted Elvis Presley himself now vibrated with the spirit of modern-day legends, dream matches, and passionate communities coming together.
From the very moment the doors swung open, it was clear this was going to be different. You could feel it. This wasnât just a gathering, it was a celebration of everything professional wrestling represents.
Fans from every corner of the globe flooded in, some in full costume, others clutching rare memorabilia, all sharing that common bond that only wrestling fans truly understand. Everywhere you looked, there was movement, laughter, shouting, and excitement as lifelong fans crossed paths with future generations of wrestling lovers.
And right in the heart of the chaos, energy, and historyâstood WOO and Hive. Positioned in the center of the floor, WOO wasnât a side attraction. We were part of the main event energy all weekend long. Every direction fans turned, we were thereâbold, accessible, and representing the future of wrestling through blockchain technology, community, and gameplay.
đŻ PRIME PLACEMENT. MAXIMUM IMPACT.
We werenât tucked away in a corner, hoping people would wander past us. NoâWOO was smack dab in the middle of the action, surrounded by some of the biggest draws of the weekend. Every day, a new superstar had a signing session near our booth: Paige, Toni Storm, and others brought massive crowds, and those long, snaking lines wrapped right by our tables.
This positioning was priceless. It allowed us to do more than just sit and wait. We engaged directly with fans who were already fired up, already talking wrestling, already feeling that electric atmosphere. We showed them how WOO was honoring the tradition of pro wrestling while innovating it for a new generation.
Our staff worked tirelessly, flowing seamlessly between explaining the WOO TCG, demonstrating Hiveâs blockchain potential, and sharing Perry Saturnâs incredible story. We werenât just another vendor. We became part of their WrestleCon experienceâpart of their memory of Vegas.
Every handshake, every smile, every excited âWait, youâre on blockchain?!â moment built something real. These werenât cold sales pitches. They were authentic community-building moments. We were planting seeds in minds already passionate about loyalty, storytelling, and overcoming oddsâthe perfect audience for both wrestling and decentralized tech.
đ FANS FROM AROUND THE WORLD FELT THE WOO
One of the most touching highlights of the entire event was meeting Jessie, a fan who traveled all the way from the Philippines just to be a part of WrestleCon. Jessie wasnât just casually interestedâhe was energized, curious, and genuinely moved by what WOO was creating. Every single day, Jessie made it a point to visit our booth, chat about Hive, and share his excitement.
Jessieâs story encapsulated exactly why we do what we do. He saw WOO not just as a game, or as merchandise, but as a community he wanted to bring home. He promised to spread the word about Hive and WOO throughout his circles back in the Philippines, showing just how deeply wrestling and Web3 can transcend borders, languages, and backgrounds.
But Jessie wasnât the only one.
Throughout the weekend, we had dozens of returning fans who recognized us from WrestleCon 2024 in Philadelphia.
Some wore last year's WOO shirts. Some carried the starter decks they bought from us back then. Others simply smiled, pointed, and said, âHey! I remember you guys!â
That moment of recognitionâthat emotional connectionâis priceless.
It proved that this isn't a one-time gimmick.
Weâre building a brand, a family, and a movement that people remember, trust, and want to grow with. WrestleCon wasnât just about salesâit was about deepening those bonds.
đïž SALES, SWAG, AND SOUVENIRS
From the moment the doors opened Thursday evening until the final call Sunday afternoon, our booth was buzzing. Fans were drawn to the exclusive nature of our offerings. You couldnât find our items just anywhereâand you definitely couldnât find our story at other booths.
We offered autographed 8x10s of Perry Saturn, featuring classic poses and memorable moments from his legendary career. Fans who grew up watching Perry in ECW, WCW, and WWE couldnât resist grabbing a piece of history, especially when it came with a real signatureâand often, a personal story shared at the table.
The WOO Trading Card Game starter decks were another highlight. Fully integrated with Hive blockchain branding, and featuring partnerships with major Hive dApps like dcrops, Splinterlands, and InLeo, these werenât just decksâthey were gateway items into a bigger universe.
We made it clear: âThis isnât just cardboard. Itâs your entrance ticket to an online wrestling world where you can own, trade, battle, and earn.â
And letâs not forget the crown jewel: our limited edition 1997 ECW Posters, signed by multiple hardcore legends. Vintage memorabilia meets new-school blockchain energyâand the fans went absolutely nuts for it. Some fans teared up holding the posters. Others beamed as they got them signed in person.
Wrestling isn't just about entertainment. Itâs about memories. And we were selling a chance to own history.
đž SUNDAY SPECIAL: THE HIVE COMMUNITY CHAMPIONSHIP BELT
Sunday saw the launch of something truly special: the Hive Community Championship Belt activation.
We unveiled our custom-made, beautifully designed beltâa real heavyweight beautyâand immediately, fans swarmed around it, eager to pose like the champions they grew up idolizing.
Hereâs how it worked:
Fans who posed with the belt, posted their picture on social media, and committed to making a Hive blog post were rewarded with a free signed 8x10 from Perry Saturn himself.
It wasnât just a freebieâit was an initiation into the Hive ecosystem, a bridge from fandom into ownership.
The energy around the belt was incredible.
Kids flexed. Teens cut mock promos. Adults smiled wider than they had in years. Strangers ended up exchanging info, tagging each other online, and building connectionsâall centered around our belt and our community.
In a single afternoon, we didnât just grow Hiveâs numbersâwe expanded its spirit.
đ HIVE ONBOARDING: 100+ NEW USERS đ„
Our WrestleCon activation wasnât just about getting noticed. It was about building real digital citizens for Hive.
Working closely with @ocdb and @acidyo, we launched a full-scale onboarding campaign:
- Over 100+ new Hive accounts were created after the event
- Every new user got an email packed with:
- Their username and secure key retrieval instructions
- Our easy-to-follow onboarding guides
- A direct invite to post in the WOO Games Community
We even delegated Resource Credits (RC) to every new account to make posting easierâeliminating one of the major barriers to entry for blockchain newcomers.
Most importantly, we didnât leave users hanging.
We followed up personally. We encouraged engagement. We promised (and delivered) physical rewards for making that crucial first post.
We made sure that the bridge from WrestleCon to Hive was sturdy and welcoming.
đ„ PROFESSIONAL YOUTUBE CONTENT: TAKING IT TO THE NEXT LEVEL
This weekend wasnât just about selling. It was about scaling.
To that end, we filmed three cinematic, professional-grade YouTube videos with Perry Saturnâeach one positioned to serve as both content and advertising for WOO and Hive.
Using a Canon C300 Cinema Camera with prime Rokinon lenses (35mm, 50mm, 85mm at f/1.5), we captured stunning visuals, emotional interviews, and candid stories fans have never heard before.
The videos included:
- Top 5 Tag Teams Perry Saturn Faced in ECW
- The Best and Worst Companies Saturn Worked For
- The Best and Worst Bosses in Wrestling
Each video is fully branded with WOO and Hive logos, starts with sponsorship callouts ("Presented by Hive and WOO"), and ends with a call-to-action for viewers to join the community.
Perry delivered raw, unfiltered, often hilarious insights that fans will eat upâand each clip feels like a mini-documentary, not a cheap promo.
Weâre already 1/3rd of the way to YouTube monetization, and these videos are poised to launch us far past the threshold, opening up a brand new front for Hive onboarding and WOO promotion.
đ WHATâS NEXT?
WrestleCon wasnât a one-off. It was a springboard.
Next up:
- đ More WOO TCG expansionsânew wrestlers, new moves, new mechanics

- đ„ Weekly YouTube releases, building monetization, reach, and legitimacy

This is only the beginning.
