Blue Meanie has had one heck of an April. Not only did the ECW legend have WrestleMania in his own backyard of south Philadelphia, but he had his own WrestleMania-themed party at his local watering hole, McCusker\’s Tavern. However, even that gets better.
The night of that very party (aptly named \”MeanieMania\”) Meanie got married to his partner in a ceremony officiated by his trainer and fellow ECW alum, Al Snow. WrestleMania 40 weekend had to feel like a full circle moment for a main born and raised in the City of Brotherly Love and Meanie decided to commemorate such an occassion.
Over this past weekend, Meanie happened to share on his social media that he decided to get some new ink on his leg and it\’s in particular tribute to his ECW roots.
Meanie revealed that he got a tattoo of the two street signs of Swanson and Ritner, the very location of where the ECW Arena (now called the 2300 Arena) is located.\”
\”Been wanting a new tattoo for a while. After Mania week and the love ECW got, this seemed the most appropriate. Thank you to Fredrick Tigerman at Carvin’ Ink for the amazing work!!\

While Meanie is a stalwart of Philadelphia, another fan happened to get a tattoo that punched his ticket to WrestleMania 40. Across the country in Los Angeles, a fan had The Rock autograph his arm and told \’The People\’s Champion\’ that he\’d in turn get it tattooed. Sure enough, he did and The Rock gave him and his daughter tickets and a flight to WrestleMania.\’
