You guys are very lucky to meet all of them. I never met any wrestlers. I don't go to events but I'm always hoping that one day I would or some how meet one/some of My favs somewhere I wouldn't be expecting he/she to be.
The only famous people I have ever met was some St. Louis Cardinals in 99 and the local Fox Meteorologist at a Radio Shack a few years back.

This one? The same guy who made Jeff hardy's custom TNA championship made it. I think Shannon Moore got one made up as well. yep that was the one. looked awesome. it made for a nice touch with the photo op.

I've met almost 15 WWE/ROH/TNA guys maybe and Gail Kim was without a doubt the nicest one. I didn't have the money for autographs, only wanted a picture with her. She went up and took the 8 x 10s of her and Samoa Joe (was signing with her) and had him sign his and she signed hers. She gave them both to me and got the picture of us 3 taken together. Really sweet girl. Adam Cole is a really cool dude too. The rudest was without a doubt Billy Gunn. The man pretty much pressured and conned me into getting his autograph.

Nice every time (standing out among others):
Matt Morgan Victoria/Tara Stone Cold The Rock Sting William Regal Christian Rhino Tommy Dreamer Edge Big Show Chris Sabin Velvet Sky Alicia Fox Kane James Storm AJ Lee
50/50 (some good, some bad) Jeff Jarrett Hulk Hogan Ric Flair Wade Barrett Samoa Joe HBK Dean Malenko Y2J Randy Orton John Cena
Douchebags:
Mark Henry CM Punk Arn Anderson Zack Ryder
Most wrestlers appreciate they have fans and without their support, the talent isn't going to make as much. Stars like Punk and Henry just have a consistent bad attitude and would rather they find a new line of work if they don't like fans. Fame and fans go hand in hand.

Nicest: -Mason Ryan: Met him at Summerslam Axxess and I met him in the Photoshoot, and the camera had problems, so we were on the stage and had a conversation for a couple of minutes.
-Dolph and Vickie: Met them twice, didn't talk much(But Dolph really wanted my bro tank, which was really funny) but saw how they interacted with everyone else, great people.
-Natalya: I met her at Summerslam axxess and got an autograph, we had a conversation about the divas division and wrestling. I realized after that I forgot to get a picture with her. So I waited by the handicap space like told by the worker and she came down and took a picture with me. She than told me I was one of her nicest and most respectful fans that she has ever met.
-Cody Rhodes: We had small talk but super now guy and really tries to be friendly(this is when he had his mask)
-Daniel Bryan: My funniest time with a superstar had to be with him, he was all full of jokes and was uber excited to be a part of axxess! When I put down the old school Summerslam shirt everyone's been signing, he looked at it and was like "where did you get this?! I want one!!" Funny guy
-Antonio Cesaro and Aksana were very nice as well.
Rude: -Primo and Epico: Didn't say one word when I saw giving their autograph and didn't even try to smile. Must of been a bad day or something.
-Hornswoggle: I've never got an autograph or picture with him because from what I see he's a dick.
-AJ: I feel like I didn't see her on her brightest day but ahe came off all snobbish, she was paired with Kaitlyn who was really nice, but from all of the good experiences from everyone else, Im gonna have to see her again, and most likely, will get a better experience.

in hilarious even if it's fake Is that about him getting the F5 because of some photo? Yes sir[/quote] I just did some major Googling and found this story. I'm about to puke I've been laughing so hard. The best was waking up from the F5 to seeing a "Here comes the pain" autograph next to him.

I've only met PAC, back at a local show that he did in my town in 2006. Really nice guy, got to hold his title belt (the FWA Flyweight Championship...basically the WWF Light Heavyweight title with some stickers).
Funny story, my mum went away to Spain on holiday in April 2008 and ran into Finlay and Mark Henry whilst they were doing the European tour. She said that Finlay was a lovely person to meet and signed a piece of paper for me. Mark Henry on the other hand was apparently grouchy and being shoved around my airport personnel. Apparently he wasn't wearing shoes...
Additionally, my cousin once stayed in the same hotel as John Cena, and even saw him surrounded by security in the lobby.

When Scott Hall had his brief run with Tna as a member of "the band" he was at the lockdown fanfest that they do. They had 8x10's on the table that you could buy if you didn't have anything for them to sign. So Hall is just signing the 8x10's and handing them out to everyone that comes by. I had 2 of my own pictures I got signed and then he grabs one off the table and signs it telling me "here you go chico, you get one of these too, You know what take 2" and signs another one.
I met Ax from demolition, Terri Runnels, Honky Tonk Man, The Fantastics, and The Midnight Express at a local indy show here once awhile back. Everyone was great with the fans. The Fantastics and Terri really stood out they talked a few minutes to everyone that wanted to talk to them. The only one that didn't seem that into it was Ax. He was nice and shook my hand and posed for a pic with me but he just seemed kind of bummed out by the whole thing. Could have been due to the low turn out, there may have been 50 people at the meet and greet portion of the event.

Hi everyone. I attended the Ringside Fest event yesterday and I wanted to start a discussion on meet and greet experiences. First off, Bayley and Daniel Bryan were amazing. They were extremely nice and welcoming. Bayley gave me a hug and thanked me for attending NXT Brooklyn. I asked her what her favorite match is and she said Brooklyn. Daniel was also very nice and we talked about ROH briefly. I asked him if he remember wrestling at an ROH event in Sports Plus and he paused and reacted like I brought him back to the good ol' days. I was very happy with this experience.
However the second session was a little different. But not for the reasons everyone is going to think. I was very nervous to meet Sasha because I have heard numerous reports of her being nasty towards fans. I did not want to believe it because she is one of my favorites. First off, it took forever to meet them because they arrived a half hour late. Then, we were rushed while meeting them. Finn was nice. I felt bad because he went to shake my hand but he couldn't extend it. But, he was the one who went for the handshake first so that just shows his awesome character. I asked him what his favorite match is and he went back-and-forth between Brooklyn and Beast in the East. He ultimately chose Beast in the East. Finally, I got up to Sasha. She was very nice. Maybe people caught her on an off day but she was nice to me. Her picture was great and she liked my items. I bought the side plates and we both said that they are awesome. However, the problem was with the Rinside people. Since they were late, they were rushing us and were nasty in the process. I had multiple items and they were mad that I had trouble carrying them. Then, the woman said "no touching." I thought that was unnecessary. Other than that, this meet and greet went well.
Basically, the reason for this post is that Sasha was nicer than people made her out to be and I have experience much... much worse. For example, the "saint of a man" Mick Foley is not very nice. I have actually met him more than once and he was very off putting both times. I don't think that is coincidence.
So, what are your good and bad experiences.

Wait the Ringside staff were nasty with the fans? What did the woman tell you not to touch? As for Mick Foley well when I met him he was by far the nicest wrestler I have ever met but a few friends also met him and thought he was nasty so I guess you have to catch him on a good day.

As if that was really holding up the line. And the woman said no touching as in do not touch Sasha. Bayley and Daniel Bryan allowed you to get up close. I wasn't even allowed to shake Sasha's hand.
