If you don't mind me asking just curious to hear more about Sasha Banks and corey graves. Sasha banks was just not nice any time ive met her and after nxt house shows pretty much everybody else will stay and take pics and sign stuff and EVERY time she puts up her hood on her hoodie,hides and walks fast to the car and ignores the kids and stuff that can tell it her but they yell her name and she just walk on by them One time she did that (blew kids off) and went to the car like she was in a hurry but then had to wait anyway cause she rode with becky,bayley and another girl I can't remember but they all stood around and signed and took pics for like 30 min so Sasha sat in the car by herself while they all signed..it was pretty funny to see Corey graves kept me waiting for him to sign my card....never signed it or came back then the next time they were back here in Tampa I took the card and he was just not nice about signing it also sometimes after shows he would pretend to be on the phone and stuff when people ask him to sign and take pics and stuff Honestly Corey graves was cool until after he got the announcers contract from triple h the day of whatever takeover special that was he got it then the next time they came back around he was just kinda a dick to people and kinda big timing them...you could definatly tell the difference in the way he acted with people I'm a Sasha fan and this has saddened me. Ignoring annoying adults is fine but ignoring kids aswell just isn't right. I get that she's young but if Sasha wants to be succesful she needs to change her attitude and treat her fans better.

I forgot to mention Sharkboy as being insanely awesome as well. Met him at an Indy show, while he was still being used weekly in TNA. Spoke for a good solid 10-15 minutes and even exchanged email addresses and phone numbers. I helped him get some Indy work not long after...super friendly.

One thing I would caution some folks on and I've seen it said a few times...but remember, just because a wrestler (or any celebrity) didn't sign something for you or take a picture with you doesn't make them nasty. Be hesitant to lump someone in as a bad guy/girl just because you didn't get what you wanted.
One instance that jumps out to me in that vein is a time several years ago when I was at an ECW show in York, PA at the Fairgrounds, and I went into the bathroom to take a piss. I'm standing there and Bubba Ray Dudley comes in and takes the urinal two down from me. We're standing there pissing and some knob comes up behind us and actually asks for his autograph! He made a smart ass remark about whether it would be ok if he got his dick out of his hand first and I laughed my ass off. The autograph seeker got embarrassed and bolted. Now, would that have qualified as a nasty experience? Would you want someone to do that to you?

Since I have been living in Mexico I have not met many any in years. But around 1991 I worked out at Sting and Lex Lugar´s gym. Saw them sometimes. But since I only watched the WWE I really had no idea who they were. Saw iron Sheik, Sid, and Big Bully Busick at the gym once. That was kinda cool. Met Hulk Hogan. He was filming no holds barred across the street from my house. He signed my WWF magazine and called me brother. Awesome. Met Jake Roberts on an NY plane. He was cool too.Met Virgil. I had worked as a waiter in WWFNY restaurant. I kept the shirt that said WWF STAFF on it for years. I was also working out big time back then and was kinda huge. He kept following me around Atlanta´s DragonCon chatting me up. I think he thought I still worked for the WWF and would help him out. Too funny. You met a MF'in Jake the Snake on a MF'in plane..... sorry couldn't help it (watched that movie last night!

Can't say I've ever had a bad experience.
Tommy Dreamer was kind of out of it but I can imagine the jet lag was killing him so I spent $60 for a pic, autograph and shirt anyway.
Al Snow was great to be around. I walked up to him and said "Happy Birthday Al!" He said "It's not my birthday", the Headbangers were sitting next to him and they yelled "IT'S YOUR BIRTHDAY?!" And sang Happy Birthday while he flipped them off. Best experience ever.
Robbie E and Zema Ion were awesome.
I talked about Trent with Curt Hawkins which was awesome. Bought his "When Curt Met Trent" DVD, which was signed by both of them. I like Trent.
Scotty 2 Hotty was one of my favorites too, because I was shaking when I met him. I watched him when I was 9 and now there he was, standing right there. Kind of a surreal feeling.
Chyna was great too, and she called me sweetheart. Hard to focus with her because you're like... thinking about... other things...
Justin Gabriel and I talked about his figures. He didn't like his first figures head.
Hornswoggle took the time to take a pic with me, didn't sign autographs (probably because he wasn't supposed to be at a Global Force Wrestling event)
Magnus was ok.
Luke Gallows and Karl Anderson were great. They brought the NJPW Tag titles with them (didn't let people pose with them) but I got to touch it so that was cool.
Saw Tyler Breeze and Xavier Woods at the Minneapolis airport. What was even scarier was that I was listening to Tyler's theme song when I saw him.

Nicest: Jericho Went to his book signing in Liverpool, he turned up around an hour late but stayed longer to accommodate. Spoke to him about Talk is Jericho and he asked my favourite ep. Was a nice guy...
Y2J is the only wrestler I've met so I'm 1 for 1 for nice guys!

Colt Cabana, I forgot I met him too. Told him I was a big fan of Art of Wrestling and I loved the Trent episode. Then he started pushing his merch.

Now, would that have qualified as a nasty experience? Would you want someone to do that to you? This so much. People seem to be under the false impression that wrestlers owe it to them to stop and sign stuff, when that just isn't the case. If you've had a bad experience with someone at a signing that's fair enough, but if you're approaching someone in an airport or something and they refuse or don't say much, it doesn't make them a dick, it makes them a normal human. As for mine, I've met too many to list, the only ones who was ever really dicks was Sabu and Sandman, both at proper signings. Sandman was obviously drunk and Sabu just grunted when asked for a picture by anyone. The nicest was Corey Graves (before WWE), He came out after a show just to meet me and sign a custom figure I had of him, which was really great of him to do. I asked a staff member of the show to see if he could get it signed,but Graves told him to get me to wait instead. Simon Dean was also incredibly nice, took time out to chat with me about his time in WWE etc. Christian, Colt Cabana, AJ Lee, Zack Ryder was also all very nice. Then the rest I met I never had issues with at all.

All of the wrestlers that I've had the privilege of meeting have been polite, so I can't say I've ever met anyone who was nasty to me.
Most are usually quiet but appreciative. Carlito at Ringside Fest '05 was just straight up quiet and didn't say a word, but he wasn't rude or anything.
I once witnessed CM Punk reprimand a guy for trying to sneak a pic of him outside after a show, then I proceeded to do the same when he wasn't looking lol.

Haven't met many, but I ran into Kofi, Xavier, Hornswoggle, Rusev, and Lana at a barcade in Columbus last year. Rusev and Lana kept up themselves, but the other three were great. I got to play Ninja Turtles with Hornswoggle for like half an hour and we didn't talk wrestling or anything. Just two dudes talking Turtles, haha. Then he got obliterated drunk, it was awesome. Got pics with the three of them.
I actually bumped into Mark Henry at the Arnold Classic a couple years ago. He was fine with me. I just casually asked him if I could get a pic. We got one real quick, I thanked him, and we went our ways.

I've heard mixed stuff on Sasha. Some say she's super nice, some say she's mean and some say she's just staying in character.
Anyway, everyone I've met have been relatively nice. Paige was the nicest. She really seems to LOVE being around her fans. She talked to me, cracked a bunch of jokes and takes some funny pictures with her fans. Maria Kanellis was super sweet and RVD was pretty cool. Hulk Hogan hit on my sister. Benoit and Ziggler were cool. When I met the Miz and John Morrison, Miz was awesome (pun intended). Morrison seemed to enjoy the stuff less.
I don't remember much either good or bad from D-Von, Rhyno, Terri or Bret Hart.

Roddy Piper was a class act. Met him at a book signing years ago. He spent at least 5 to 10 minutes with each fan. He was genuinely happy to see everyone there. Terry Funk was a pisser! Like Piper, he spent time with everyone asking for a signature. And he wouldn't just write his name, he'd personalize it. For me, he wrote "To my pal Grumpy- Stay out of jail. Terry Funk." For my brother, he wrote "Hey Andrew- Ease up on them hammers. Terry Funk.". It took me years, but I realized he was quoting a Far Side comic strip. King Kong Bundy was funny as well. He was hitting on the girl I was dating at the time & giving me a look like "I'm hitting on your chick. What are you gonna do about it?" Great guy, but sloppy handwriting. Ox Baker was like that one uncle who would tell you a dirty joke, give you a sip of his beer or a puff of his cigar. Very loud, hands-on & hilarious. Lol Ox was a handful, met him a few years ago Rip

I've met many wrestlers over the past 15 years and most of the time they were nice, very few were rude. I'll just point out a few.
Nice: Roddy Piper - he made you feel like an old friend that he hasn't seen in a long time and was extremely happy to meet everyone. Mickie James - a saint of a women. Nattie - extremely nice and friendly. Mean Gene - was cracking jokes with all the fans. Paul London - was very friendly. Kevin Owens - talked to everyone who approached him. Trish Stratus - extremly talkative with everyone. Lita - was friendly
Rude: Shelton Benjamin - looked like he didn't want to be there and he would barley talk to anyone. Vader - looked bored out his mind and was just there for the money. Randy Orton

I only met just one WWE Superstar (Cody Rhodes) and he seemed to be very friendly when I congratulated him on his win at the WWE house show in Spokane, Washington back in December 2013. Now as Stardust, he's probably just the opposite IMO.

Nicest. Rob Van Dam....Took me to Taco Bell and bought. True story. Bunghole. Mark Henry. Forgot about RVD. He was super chill. My brother had a Deadpool phone case when we got a pic. RVD posed for the pic then afterwards was like "Love the case. I'm a HUGE Deadpool fan!" He then talked for a minute about Deadpool and his Deadpool singlet.
