Meet David Arquette In Shreveport
The incredible actor, and professional wrestler, David Arquette is joining the Geek'd Con 2026 lineup!

David also holds one of the most talked-about legacies in pro wrestling history. He is a former WCW World Heavyweight Champion! Yes, THE David Arquette won a major pro wrestling championship.
But don't write it off as a gimmick...this was driven by a genuine love for the wrestling business. After his WCW title reign, he returned to the professional wrestling ring years later. He competed on the gritty independent circuit, lacing up his boots and even surviving brutal, bloody deathmatches to earn the respect of the locker room, and the fans. This emotional journey was beautifully captured in the acclaimed documentary You Cannot Kill David Arquette.
Don't miss your chance to meet David, add to your Scream autograph collection, get a big gold belt signed, and geek out over your favorite horror movies & wrestling moments all weekend long.
