Two of my favorite wrestlers are The Rock and Mick Foley I never met Foley yet but I did get to have lunch and hang out with The Rock he was so nice and down to earth his mom was also there she was nice also. Right now I would love to meet Miz, CM Punk and Jericho. I was close to meeting Punk when he worked a indy show by me but it was a few days after Chris Candido died so he mainly stayed in the locker room before and after his match and didn't really interact with fans. Tell us the having lunch with Rock story. In 2004 I was told by my doctors that I was most likely not going to live past 2005 so they asked if there was any special thing I wanted. I told them I wanted to meet The Rock so they sent me and my family to L.A. for a week and to meet him. On the second to last day of our trip my family and I were picked up at the hotel by a limo and taken to universal studios they took us to a secret area in the amusement park where there was a buffet table and regular table with a few other kids and there family's set up for us The Rock then walks in with his mom. Both of them were extremely nice he answered every question and signed everything, took pictures and called up both Kurt angle and mick foley he also gave us a bunch of walking tall hats,shirts,etc. we spent about 3hrs with him and after that got free all day front of the line passes to universal studios he went on a ride with us and then he had to go. It was one of the greatest trips I ever had.

I met Hulk Hogan for the first time last year and he was great. He was just really friendly and nice, and he is my favorite wrestler of all time.

I've pretty much met everybody I've wanted to meet & got photos with them, however, there are 3 I have met that I have never gotten photos with & it just seems it's never gonna happen, LOL.
Rock, Hulk Hogan & Undertaker.
Got stuff signed off them, but never a pic as the oppertunities just never arose.
Goldberg is the only Wrestler I've never met that I would like to.
Rob Van Dam & Shawn Michaels are my 2 all time favourites & they've always been a pleasure to meet.
And although we can never forget what he did, Chris Benoit was F*cking Awesome! Seriously, really nice & polite gentleman who I got to spend a good 20 mins plus talking with & he signed my Hard Knocks DVD & Promo & was just really cool. Spoke & acted like a true gent & pro which is why it's so sad things ended the way they did & the way most people will only ever remember him for now.

I have met and have autographs from the following, not sure I'll be able to remember them all. Most of them are from Wrestle Reunion 2 that was held in Valley Forge, Pa back in 2005.
Bret Hart Mick Foley The Dudleys Test Matt Hardy Rhyno Steve Corino DDP Ivan Koloff Nikolia Volkoff Tito Santana Don Muraco Larry Zbyszko Bruno Sammartino D'lo Brown The Blue Meanie Dusty Rhodes Jimmy Hart Terry Funk Raven Joey Styles Norman Smiley Disco Inferno George Steele King Kong Bundy Billy Gunn The only wrestlers I have a picture with are Texas Tornado, Honky Tonk Man and Hacksaw Jim Duggan!
My favorite wrestlers are Hogan, Hall and Mr Perfect. Doesn't seem very likely that I'll meet any of them anytime soon.

I met Mick Foley at a minor league baseball game 2 years ago and got him to sign my copy of Christmas Chaos, which I had already gotten signed by Jerry Lawler the year before.

I will never meet Eddie Guerrero, and will probably never meet Jun Akiyama.
But I'm meeting Chavo Guerrero next month, that'll be the bee's knees. Probably the closest to an all time favorite I'll ever meet.

My current favorite wrestler is Tyson Kidd but i've never met him in person. I've talked to him loads of times on MSN and Twitter etc but never in person. My favourite wrestler of all time is Kane and i'd love to meet him. The only 2 i've met are Natalya and Mark Henry. Natalya was really nice and asked lots of questions and seemed genuinely delighted to be there. Henry on the other hand was a total douche. Didn't talk to anyone and had a really miserable look on his face. How do you talk to him on msn? I have only talked on twitter with him.

i actually met CM Punk a few weeks ago. he autographed my Punk/Macho Man 2 pack. on Macho mans side he put "R.I.P MACHO MAN" then on his side he autographed it. A gem in my collection(MIGHT be willing to sell if the deal is right). I heard stories about how he was an ass but i just approached him and said "Mr. CM Punk, may i please have a moment of your time to get an autograph" and he signed it. We then talked about some of his dream matgches. he said he would of loved to wrestle Macho Man, Bret Hart, or Mr. Perfect. really cool experience.

I've met Ric Flair back in 2005, got 3 items signed, and he was pretty cool.
Other guys I've met:
Kurt Angle RVD (twice) AJ Styles Chris Sabin Mr Anderson (he was awesome, hung out with fans all night taking pics and signing stuff) D-Von Dudley Jay Lethal (I always hated this guy, but I met him last year in NJ at the NJPW show that was going on as he was there as a fan, he was incredibly nice and we chatted about the show. My favorite meeting actually.) Beer Money Low-Ki (another great meeting at the NJPW show, talked with him for about 10 minutes) Jushin Thunder Liger (again, another awesome meeting) Rhino (Kind of a dick actually) Jeff Jarrett (another guy I've met twice, I love talking to him) Velvet Sky (so much better looking in person) Earl and Brian Hebner Don West Jeremy Borash (nice guy, wished me a happy birthday) Amazing Red
That's about it I think. I'll edit my post if I remember others.

I got to meet CM Punk, Daniel Bryan, Zack Ryder, and Chris Jericho who are among my current favorites. I've never had the chance to meet Bret Hart, HBK, Undertaker, or Mick Foley who are among my all time favorites. Who knows though? I may be able to meet them soon. A recruiter from WWE called me on Tuesday to talk about a possible job within the company. She told me someone should contact me soon as positions are always opening up.
