What wrestler's have you met, and liked who are not in WWE.
Jerry Lynn (kind of like that guy's christian Cage story)Lynn did an indy show at the bar, and chatted amongst the fans and bought a couple of them drinks.
Ms.Brooks she was at the same indy show, and she was really sweet, gave me a hug and a kiss.
ODB, I think she lives her gimmick, she was drinking 5 beers at a time, gave me a hug, a kiss, and grabbed my ass.
Abyss Damn that man is huge, I got to see him without his mask, and he's a really down to earth guy, he and I shot the breeze, and he autographed my Jerry Lynn shirt. He told me that when he left TNA he was going to work for WWE, but they said the had no use for him so he went back to TNA.

I've met basically the entire TNA roster plus Chris Jericho a few months ago.
Kurt was the most distant, but still polite. I should note that this was like four days after his match with Joe where he got a concussion. Senshi was a little brusque, but still signed my DVD.
The nicest ones were Jerry Lynn, Chris Sabin, Jay Lethal, Sonjay Dutt and Tracy.
Jericho and Christian are by far the funniest guys, their real personalities are exactly what they'd accept.

At shows:
Larry Sweeney
Brent Albright - He has a surprisingly dry sense of humor.
Ruckus
Josh Prohibition
Ricky Reyes - Nice guy, but was slightly drunk off his ass at the time.
Sebastian Dark - Yeah, I know that no one outside of IWC fans know who he is, but he deserves a mention. He's just a really, really cool guy.
Through work:
Steve Corino - Nice guy, but really, really intimidating.
Ricky Landell
Dinn T. Moore
Chasyn Rance
Kirby Mack - He's easily one of my absolute favorite people to deal with.
Takao Omori - Very definition of "opinionated."
Noah Lott - I know that he's an "unknown," but again, he deserves a mention. He's rather humble and quiet, which is surprising since he plays an "evil genius" character. He will be a big star one day, provided that TNA or ROH doesn't go out of business (he's a little "small" for the WWE).

Other then eating Wendy's with Anonymous Indy Guys, I have met Honkey Tonk Man, Greg Valentine, Doink, papa Shango, Nikolai Volkoff, Scott Steiner, Samoa Joe, A.J. Styles, Larry Zybysko, Tony Atlas, Brutus Beefcake, Sal Sincere (when he was Johnny Gunn), Jim Neidhart, and former ECW wrestler T-2. Irony of ironies, he is my cable guy. Oh yeah. Afa was sitting on a bench outside of his wrestling school when it was in Hazleton. I went up and shook his hand.

At comic conventions I've gotten autographs from both Roddy Piper, DDP, and Virgil. Piper seemed cool, but I didn't stay for too long because I didn't want to hold up the line. I was the only one at DDP's booth at the time, so I talked to him for a couple of minutes. He seemed pretty cool. I told him it was awesome to see him return to wrestling at TNA, and he said he had a good time there and he hopes to see them do better.
Virgil let me have an autographed picture for a little less than usual, because I told him I needed to afford lunch. He was cool. Although there wasn't much of a crowd around him he was willing to talk with whoever did come up to him.

I've met Crowbar, Tom Brandi, Gino Caruso, and a few other local indy wrestlers. All of them were very nice.
One of Crowbar's friends came up to him while we were talking and she looked familiar. Turned out that we went to the same high school. I was a freshmen when she was a senior. Weird coincidence.

This summer I met David Young at an indy show. I didn't want to ask him too much about TNA since it was right after his release, and I didn't know what kind of terms he left on. He was a nice guy, and appreciated that our town was hosting the show, and said he hoped to stick around. Unfortunately, the promotion hasn't had another show anywhere yet.

Ok i've met in this order...... 1.Pac: Awesomely nice. 2.Tracy Smothers w/ Waterfalls of Sweet on his Body. Still a nice guy though. 3. Nigel. I didn't understand a Word he said, because of his British ways. But he was smiling. 4. Claudio. Ok I didn't get an autograph. Heck I didn't even get a picture. I just had the bad luck , to be standing next to his Merchtable. So he tryed to sell me just about everything. Pictures, DVD's, T-Shirts, his family you name it. Still was kinda cool though. 5. Danielson. You know how you get a Picture for free? Go to him and say:"Mr. Best in the world sir. Would you mind a Picture?" 6.Aries/Joey Ryan: Booth really polite. "Shane Matthews < Jakked" got bought an Shirt on this Show. He went to Ryan and ordert it in "Super Dragon Size". Joey gave him XXL. 7. CHRIS F'n HERO: The funniest Wrestler i've ever met. I Stood right infront of his Merchtable for two Shows. I'm sure nobody walked away with a Picture without him making Faces. During the Break I went to make a picture with him. Afterwards an guy I was visiting the Show with said: "Oh and Mr. Hero. If you lose your match tonight... WE ROIT". To which Hero replied:" Yeah AWESOME. I love roits. I'll do my best to lose then. So I turned around and went:" You know what? If you lose tonight there'll be NO COOKIE FOR YOU!" He totally marked. Yeah Chris is Awesome.

HTM, Scotty 2 Hotty, Gangrel (who was a really nice guy overall), and for all the CHIKARA fans, Robbie Ellis, although I never really saw him stick around after shows that much.

Gangrel wrestled Young at the aforementioned show. I tried to get him to high-five me as he walked past, but he ignored me. I chalk it up to him being the heel and staying in character, though.

Booker T. What else can I say? One of my favorites. 2 Cold Scorpio. Hilarious guy. Says Flash Funk is stuffed in a suitcase somewhere. AJ Styles. 2nd nicest one I've met thus far. Awesome, awesome guy. Joey Mercury. VERY quiet but polite. Extremely nice. Christian Cage. The best ever. If you haven't seen my thread about it then I suggest you check it out. It was 1 helluva experience.
