All together now, "Woooooo!" When given the opportunity, it would be a HORROR to not welcome one of the most iconic and accomplished figures in professional wrestling history to your show. Please welcome The Nature Boy, Ric Flair, to 2026 Washington State Horror Con happening from October 23rd through the 25th.

Ric Flair is a wrestling icon. His flamboyant persona, sequined robes, bleached-blond hair, and the signature “Woooooo!” yell helped elevate the golden age of professional wrestling.

Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Flair dominated both the NWA and World Championship Wrestling, amassing a widely recognized total of 16 world championships across the NWA, WCW, and WWE—more than any other wrestler in history according to WWE’s official count. He headlined countless major events, including memorable rivalries with Ricky Steamboat, Sting, Hulk Hogan, and Randy Savage. He played a pivotal role in the legendary Four Horsemen wrestling faction. His 1992 WWE World Heavyweight Championship victory and high-profile runs further cemented his pop culture crossover appeal, while his ability to deliver classic matches well into his 50s and 60s demonstrated longevity that is unmatched.

Inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame twice—once as a singles competitor in 2008 and again with the Four Horsemen in 2012—Flair’s influence extends far beyond title reigns. He shaped generations of performers with his “kiss, steal, and leave” philosophy and larger-than-life character work, earning recognition as a two-time WWE Hall of Famer, a multiple-time WCW and NWA champion, and one of the most celebrated ambassadors of the industry.

Meet Ric on Saturday and Sunday at the Washington State Horror Con happening from October 23rd through the 25th. He will be signing autographs, taking individual photos, and meeting his fans. Tickets for the Washington State Horror Con are on sale now at: www.wahorrorcon.com

It would be a true HORROR to keep our wresting fans from waiting any longer to find out who is coming to Horror Con this year. We have brought some epic wrestling guests in our first two years, and we have TWO guests this year that will add some fun, flair, and excitement to the show.

First up, we are excited to bring a 2 in 1 guest this year. Please welcome The Godfather and Papa Shango 2026 Washington State Horror Con happening from October 23rd through the 25th.

Charles Wright, better known as The Godfather, is a retired American professional wrestler celebrated for his colorful and memorable run in the World Wrestling Federation (later WWE) during the 1990s and early 2000s. He first gained attention in the early 1990s under the supernatural Papa Shango gimmick before evolving through roles such as K**a and K**a Mustafa as a key member of the Nation of Domination.

His transformation into The Godfather in 1998, a charismatic pimp accompanied by his signature “Ho Train” of glamorous women, perfectly captured the irreverent spirit of the Attitude Era and quickly made him a fan favorite. As The Godfather, Wright achieved significant success by capturing the WWF Intercontinental Championship in April 1999 after defeating Goldust, a reign that solidified his status as a fan favorite. He later teamed with Bull Buchanan to win the WWF World Tag Team Championship.

Beyond the titles, his larger-than-life persona, flashy entrances, and ability to generate massive crowd reactions left a lasting imprint on WWE programming, with memorable interactions and matches against top stars of the era. Wright’s contributions were formally recognized when he was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2016 under his iconic Godfather character.

Charles will be "The Godfather" on Friday and Sunday PM at the show and "Papa Shango" on Saturday and Sunday AM at the Washington State Horror Con.

Meet Charles all weekend at the Washington State Horror Con happening from October 23rd through the 25th. He will be signing autographs, taking individual photos, and speaking on a panel at the show. Tickets for the Washington State Horror Con are on sale now at: www.wahorrorcon.com
