I really don't care much about signatures, but I guess it'd be cool to get Neidhart to sign my MOC Hasbro fig.

If they have a Mattel elite out, I usually get that signed. Otherwise, if it's someone who doesn't (such as Jeff Hardy) I would get something specific to his career signed. I got a ladder signed by him.

It totally depends. If it's a top meet, and you're ok spending the money, I say a replica belt. If it's just someone you enjoy but isn't a top meet, I'd say any combination of a figure, program, or 8x10 is totally fine. I've switched from getting autographs to getting pictures over the last couple of years though. I literally have a stack of signed 8x10s from guys that are just sitting in a box at this point, primarily because I just don't have the room to hang them all up. I guess if you had something unique to the guy, so Triple H and a Sledgehammer, Sting and a bat, or even older merch like an HBK YMCA hat, that those would all be really cool. This is my favorite thing I've ever had signed:

I try to do something specific with them. Either unique to them or just a unique piece in general.
With Goldberg, he's generic, but he won the Big Gold belt while undefeated in WCW. So, in my mind, whenever I think of Goldberg, I think of him holding that. So I had him sign a replica Big Gold Belt that I bought when WCW was still around. It even has his nameplate on it. (I remember when they were sold for under $300.00.I bought mine for $299.99)
For Paige, I had her sign her First Elite Mattel Figure, and since she was the first NXT Women's Champion, I had her sign a replica.
When I meet Sting, I'm going to have him sign a black metal baseball bat. I tried to win on EBAY a replica WCW Big Gold Belt with his name on it, but I got my dates confused, and ended up missing on the bid. It was under $150. Also plan to get him to sign 3 DM GAB Sting Figures in Red, White, and Blue, and his DM Crow Figure.
Same applies when I bid on WWE's website or other auction sites. I got AJ Styles event worn gloves signed, Becky Lynch's event worn Lass Kicker Shirt signed, and Paige's worn Scream For Me Shirt Signed all from WWE's site. From the other auction site, I got a Maryse Worn Bikini Signed, a Brooke Adams/Tessmacher worn ring attire (booty shorts and top) signed, and Maria Kanellis worn ring attire signed. The more unique the better.
From here on out, it'll mostly be figures. That happened with Trish Stratus and Ric Flair.
Ideally, I want to try at this year's Axxess doing something somewhat "creative." I plan on just doing a selfie with them while my girlfriend waits in line about 5 people back. I'll print the photo on a portable digital printer or do a Polaroid, get back in line with my girlfriend who couldn't care less to meet these people (she just knows it makes me happy), and I'll have the wrestler sign it. (Those are for people I don't have figures for).

It depends on who the wrestler is. I have a 1984 WWF calendar that has been signed by nearly everyone in it, except for Ivan Putski. I'm hoping I get a chance to meet him before he passes.

It depends. When I met the Hardys I had them sign a few magazine covers they were on and the DVD. I never did get Lita on the team extreme one. I have gotten some figures signed, some 8x10s and then some magazines. They all have their cool look to them.

I have a WrestleMania 28 Poster, and I am trying to get all the people that competed on that show on there. I have some big names like Cena, Y2J, Ziggler, Cody Rhodes, etc.

It all depends on who I'm meeting. I have a few different projects in the works. I like having things that are different, or that no one else has. I have an original pair of Bret Hart's glasses autographed. Being that I have photographed a ton of WWE shows, I've got a lot of photos that no one else has.
One of them is a group photo of DX from Raw 1000. I had it printed on a big canvas & have it signed by all the members, minus Triple H.
I'm also working on a WM28 poster that I bought before the PPV. I had it signed by everyone I met at Axxess. Now I have close to 40 autographs on it, and now I'm just trying to cover anyone who was on the actual card or inducted into the HOF that year.
I decided to start a WM30 project. I'm working on just getting the program cover signed by those who are on it. The WM28 poster has been a monster project & I didn't want to go down that road again. This one only has like 9 guys on it.
I picked up a WM32 poster, but haven't decided when I want to start it.
I prefer to get things like posters signed because I want to display them. A lot of people like having the encyclopedia signed, but it's not really something you can display.

When I met Roddy Piper three times. First I had him sign his "Hot Rod" shirt, it's in a frame now. Second was his book. And then the last time I saw him I had him sing the his WWE dvd special 4 disc set.
Bobby Heenan I had his book signed.
Mr. Perfect, Lou Albano, Brutus Beefcake I had them sign those old "WWF Superstars" yearbooks.
King Kong Bundy signed an old "Headstart computer" 8x10.

Depends on the person really.
- Eagle belt is my favorite (trying to get everyone still alive to sign it) - 8X10 WWE Promo pics are awesome to get signed (IMO) - Folding chair from a WWE PPV....Hard to carry around but cool to get signed
Those are my top 3

I enjoy getting multiple items signed but my priority are always getting figures signed.

It depends on who I am meeting and how big of a fan I am of that person. If you want to start a collection and want a project piece....get a program or the WWE Encyclopedia. If you want something to display...get an 8x10. If its someone special, a belt or ring worn gear. If you are a figure guy....get a figure signed.

Honestly just meeting them would be enough. I feel like an autograph, unless you have a collection, would just collect dust. When I was younger, Mick Foley was going to do a book reading at the elementary school my grandmother worked at so me and my brother gave her 2 mankind figures to get signed and they weren't really as special without meeting him. Obviously if it was MOC it would of held up longer.

An elite or basic figure, a Pop vinyl, a classic magazine cover or poster, or if it's someone like Jim Duggan, get a 2x4 signed.

I prefer getting Photo Ops over autographs.
