I've meet a few wrestlers before, must of them from the 80's or 90's like Hacksaw and Beefcake, but I have never meet wrestlers I have actually gotten to SEE on TV. Last night I finally did just that. I met Carlito, Chris Masters, and Matt Hardy! You could imagine my happiness. Before the show they all had a meet and greet, and was able to shake hands with all of them. They all were really down to earth guys, ask me questions and let me ask them questions, took a picture with me, and told me something inspirational (like Carlito said "If you really want it in this business, you can't just work 50%", and so forth) and was probably one of the greatest experiences of my life.     |

Looks like you had a blast. Carlito was right, in the wrestling industry, you need to give it 100%, not 75 and not even 50%.

Is it me or Masters did lose important muscle mass?

Cool to hear, and I'm glad that they were so down-to-Earth! Is it me or Masters did lose important muscle mass? I've noticed that in his recent pics, too. He definitely seems a bit more, well, natural, so to speak, since his initial WWE run, and even compared to his 2010 run he seems to have smaller traps. This pic particularly seems to show some flabbier abs and legs. 2/10 would no-sell The Masterlock. JK he's still buffer and more impressive-looking than I'll ever be. |

I swear guys, it looks like that in the pictures, but standing next to this guy, my god he's probably bigger than he ever was. I swear he literally man-handled the guy he was wrestling (245 pounds) and then picked up the ref by his shirt with one hand (about 180 pounds) at the same time. That guy is still a  ing beast. |

the man was so great at little things to add entertainment to his character...wish they would've appreciated him a little more & he could've gotten along with certain people a little better as he said in an interview with MVP after getting released, the rumors weren't true about him not caring...he got in trouble for caring too much & he has a big mouth/trouble maker mentality/doesn't pull any punches with people not many people could turn a crowd from boos to cheers and back to boos like he could -- carlito's cabana with edge/big show/kurt angle/hbk/cena is what won me over, the crowd hated him, then they decide with one line that he's awesome, then they hate him again with one more lol it was perfect |

I'm glad you had fun, but can we please euthanize the word "epic" as a slang term? Means absolutely nothing at this point.

Wrestling Meet & Greets, and Indy shows are one of my favorite things in life right now.... I've been on an autograph MISSION lately!
Glad to see you had such a great time! Always nice to hear success stories..... Did you get anything signed?
Carlito had a GREAT series of matches with Ric Flair, too..... he really earned my respect with that feud....
And ...... *ahem*...... some of us here ARE old enough to remember watching Hacksaw and Beefcake wrestle.....

Looks like you had a blast. Carlito was right, in the wrestling industry, you need to give it 100%, not 75 and not even 50%. Carlito should know.....he was the guy giving 50%. Carlito is a tragic tale. But this was not WWE's fault. They gave him a giant canvas to paint on and Carlito refused to pick up the brush. Too bad. So talented. |

Didn't get Master's though. I regret it now. He did man. Carlito did great but didn't get enough credit. Haha, I wasn't saying anything like that. Just before my era  |
