Rick was actually one of the teachers I had back in high school. Was amazed when I found out he was the sign guy. Few years back he saw me wrestle at show in Dallas for @nwa. Pretty cool full circle moment. Peace, to one of the coolest dudes I had the pleasure of meeting! 🙏🏼🖤
Saddened to hear of the death of Rick Achberger, known to the WWE Universe as ‘Sign Guy.’ For decades, Rick was a fixture at events holding a sign that expressed exactly how he felt about you that given evening. He will be missed by the entire @WWE family. We send condolences to his family and friends.
Just wrapped an interview with German magazine @PowerWrestling and Martin Mahony. Here’s an excerpt from it and I felt like sharing this. Credit to @TheRealAlSnow for teaching me one of the most important lessons I’ve learned in this sport.
