stories from live events or shows you have been to.
1.First ever live event i ever wen't to was in bangor maine i think 2005 the card was Awesome orton vs. taker casket eddie vs. rey last man standing batista vs. jbl street fight for the three main events but the best part was after batista pinned jbl the crowd erupted and ran towards the guard rail all is fine then some guy jumps the rail and tries to steal the world title of course he barely gets his hands around the title and he's tackled by security.About 4 years later i'm at a friends house and i meet the guy and his brother turns out he was special needs and was dared to do it wwe actually gave him a replica belt and like 10 shirts
2.My third live event everything is going great there is a little kid behind cheering as loud as he could for mark henry and miming what to do to him like mark should actually obey him and me and my dad are laughing enough to almost puke at how funny the kid is and then HE arrived a fat drunk with no brain function besides the inclination to yell "WE BELIEVE IN YOU MATT HARDY WE BELIEVE IN YOU" "YOU SUCK MARK HENRY YOU BIG FAT TURD YOU SUCK" meanwhile the kid is still yelling for mark until the guy actually yelled "SHUT UP KIDDDDDD! MARK SUCKS ASS HE JUST A BIG FAT TARD" so the father of the grabs his son and his other son and move to the other side of the auditorium but we are left just sitting there right in front of the loudmouth until Test vs. Sabu during the entire match the guy is still screaming about how Test sucks now Test wins after a good 5 minute match turns right towards where me my dad and the idiot and his friend are sitting leans right against the ropes points towards him and yell "SHUT THE F@#$ UP" and leaves i couldn't stop laughing

I took a Snitsky sign to a Raw/ECW show in 2006. I was sitting at ringside (5th row) so I was hoping it'd get noticed. While Tommy Dreamer was waiting in the ring for his opponent, I think Rene Dupree, to finish his ringwalk I held it up. Dreamer looked out into the crowd, saw it, and almost doubled over in laughter. Job done, I thought. I held it up again during the main event, which was Cena and DX vs Orton, Edge and Umaga. When DX were on the apron, Triple H looked out, saw it and let out a huge laugh. He pointed it out to Michaels, and he laughed too. That made it all worthwhile.

Snitsky (teaming with Umaga) during his bad teeth phase had a pack of chewing gum thrown at him from someone in the crowd. Umaga picked them up, took one, then offered them to Snitsky. He refused.
Ted DiBiase (suffering from sunburn) was in a tag match against DX, with HHH and HBK's offence to him consisting almost solely of chops and slaps to his body. To the point where I'm sure half the audience couldn't figure out what was going on.
Some older fans spent a Jericho match cheering him during his serious heel phase. At one point he goes into the crowd for a spot, mere feet away from the guys who stand and clap him; he turns to them and gives them the finger. They boo.

Main event: DX vs. Big Show and Randy Orton. HBK walks up to Show on the apron and asks for an apology hug. Big Show accepts, but after the hug HBK slaps him. They all proceed to spend the rest of the match dicking around.

When I was a kid, my aunt was friends with the guy who was the event planner for the Rosemont Horizon (now Allstate Arena) so I used to go backstage all the time for house shows. One time I was backstage and Paul Roma was staring at me like a hawk. He was adjusting his wrist tape and kinda jogging side to side like Lesnar does. But he would just stare at me while he was doing it. This went on for what felt like 20 minutes, but was probably like 30 seconds. No facial expression. Just looking at me. It was very unsettling. But not as unsettling as what Warrior is wearing here...  EDITOR'S NOTE: I should also point out he came into the arena in a white limo while wearing a white leather jacket WITH TASSLES!!! |

Ok I've got a couple: A memory I only remember through stories told to me. I went to a show right after Undertaker had debuted. We were front row on the entrance ramp side and I was on my dads shoulders. He, along with everyone else was booing him, but I was far too terrified. Just as he walks by us and looks at me, all I could muster was a weak thumbs up  Another I vividly remember was at a house show about seven years ago. After the show I as waiting for my ride at a corner outside the arena when I see Arn Anderson waiting at a red light with Ricky Steamboat in the passenger seat, and Arn is getting pissed because when he is getting a green, it's too backed up for him to go. It happens at least three times to him. I give Steamboat a thumbs up which he returns when he sees me. But I' m trying to get Arn to return my four fingers sign to no avail. And I can see him getting increasingly upset at the traffic. Finally he has had enough and runs the red, causing an oncoming car to slam on his brakes and getting many honks in the process. Guess no one told them a Horseman waits for no one! |

My favourite and most bittersweet memory comes from the 2005 Wrestlemania Revenge tour in Newcastle, England. After the main event of Batista & HBK vs. HHH and Flair, Batista and HBK did the usual thing going around ringside slapping hands. I decide to venture up as the match ends and find myself as the tallest, oldest member of this particular row of people. It was me and a whole bunch of kids (I was 13, they were at least half my age) and Batista was nearly at our section. Being the largest there, my hand was highest and stretched the furthest out. So Batista reaches our section and slaps every kids hand, notices mine outstretched more than everyone else's and goes to tag it... only to hop over it and walk off tagging the rest. He glanced back at me chuckling and winked. I'm fairly sure I witnessed and partook in the Genesis of Douchetista.

At a houseshow in July, during Dean Ambrose vs. Daniel Bryan some drunk guy in my section starts chanting "DANIEL BRYAN!". Most of us were laughing so hard.  |

Not really WWE exclusive, but the Pillman Memorial shows from 1999 to 2001. First year I covered as a journalist/gopher. I was there to do an article, but liked and respected Les Thatcher a great deal (still do) and offered to do whatever was needed pre-show since my early interviews only took like 10 minutes.
So I went to Walmart with this skinny British kid he was training. Funny as hell and very cool, very down to Earth dude. T'was Nigel McGuiness. (Later wound up watching a tape of his first match with him and Les, Nigel did the smiling babyface entrance, rocking the old school Union Jack speedo trunks, and had a great lariat from day one).
Melanie Pillman was a total sweetie, and her kids were great. Half way through the show I leave the media room to go catch some of the matches and just stretch my legs. Konnan comes bolting out of the locker room (into the hallway, not like a run-in) totally drenched, followed a few seconds later by Missy Hyatt who looks at me and says "hide me".
She gave the Pillman kids super soakers, and they promptly doused the Harris twins, who did not enjoy that and were apparently looking for Missy. So I hid her in the press room for 20 minutes. Nice lady, and no nothing happened which may be the biggest shock of all.
An interview with Nancy and Chris, she was pregnant with Daniel at the time. That interview still haunts me a little.
Dean Malenko with one of the greatest lines ever when he realized the building we were in at Xavier had no A/C. "A building without air conditioning is like a birthday party without the alcohol and f***ing strippers. What's the point?"
D'Lo for remembering me a full year later and asking how my article turned out. Did not expect it, and while I already respected him, that was admirable, not only to remember it, but to note it to someone who was, in essence, just some loser writing for a college paper.

I went to a very small TNA show at a Junior Hockey Rink earlier this year. You could hear anything anyone yelled in the crowd.
Devon was wrestling Joseph Park. He started choking Park on the rope and the ref initiated the count. When the ref got to three, he did the usual "Come on, Break it up!"
I yelled "he's got til Five!"
Devon turned to the ref & broke the hold, pointed at me & yelled "He says I got til Five!"
He then resumed choking Park. The ref got til the three mark again & did the "C'mon break it up!"
Devon breaks the hold, points at me and yells "He says I got til five! Do I Got til five?"
The ref was flabbergasted by the question and quickly answered "No!"
Devon replied "NO!?!?! DO I GET TIL FIVE?"
The ref responded "Yes!"
Devon goes "that's what I thought!" turned around & began choking Parks again a few times, releasing just before five each time & yelling "I get til five!"

In 2007, Kane was wrestling Finlay at a houseshow I was at. Hornswoggle came out from under the ring, entered and distracted him from beating Finlay, then froze and stared up at him for a bit, realizing what predicament he's in now. Kane randomly kneeled down and Hornswoggle placds his hat on Kane's head, then Kane came to his senses and went after him, Hornswoggle got out of the ring as Finlay climbed back to his feet, and they continued to wrestle... while Kane was still wearing that green hat In an event in 2010, Tamina of course had accompanied the Usos for a tag match and I had third row seats for this particular show. Some kid in the front row, however, was just yelling nonstop at her and the Usos that they sucked and he didn't like them and all of this, was really getting obnoxious about it all. Midway through the match, she turned around and just DEATHGLARES the kid down, he cowered backwards and everyone else around him started laughing. Late July 2011, ADR had just won his match so, after a typical promo where he announced he will be the WWE champion soon, he demanded the referee bring him his MitB briefcase... but when the referee moved to hand it to him, his grip slipped inches from a successful transfer and the briefcase hit the mat right at ADR's feet. Del Rio glowered at him and the referee got out of the ring quickly. scontent-a-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash2/188383_248263331859340_4143554_n.jpg |

At the 2012 Melbourne part of the Australia tour, the main event was CM Punk vs Daniel Bryan. Halfway through the match, Bryan started throwing punches and Punk hulked up, pointed his finger at Bryan, threw some punches at Bryan, sent Bryan off the ropes, hit him with the big boot and then leg dropped him.

I was at a TNA Live show a few years back in Dublin, 6 sided ring times, Earle Hebner was sitting a few rows behind me during the intermission signing and taking photos so I go over to chat. Earl stands up to greet me and we go to sit down for a photo, except the seats were those ones that flip back up when you stand up, Earl must've forgot because I sat down, turned to my left and there he is, falling on his ass and getting wedged in between two seats.
