Wrestling fans criticise 'shambolic' Bret Hart WrestleFest meet and greet after queuing for hours

Wrestling fans claim they were left waiting for hours after attending a "shambolic" meet and greet event in Cardiff. WrestleFest Cardiff boasted to be the "ultimate wrestling pre-party" for fans to meet their favourite stars in the capital during a weekend of WWE action.

The likes of Tyson Fury and Bret Hart attended the event, which was held at PRYZM in the city centre. Although a separate event, it took place on Saturday, September 3 while Cardiff hosted WWE Clash at the Castle. The events attracted wrestling fans from across the UK and beyond to the Welsh capital. You can see the best pictures from the huge event at the Principality Stadium here.

However when fans arrived at WrestleFest they claim they were greeted with chaotic scenes and long queues, with some leaving without meeting their favourite stars. In a statement, WrestleFest said timings on the event ran over, but that everyone had the chance to redeem their autograph and photo opportunity.
