After a live event in Cincinnati (I think it was RAW) my buddy and I went to Applebee's to get some appetizers. We walked in and the place was packed, but it usually is. I looked to my left and I tapped my buddy on the shoulder and said, "Hey, isn't that Christ Jericho, edge Christian and Val Venis?" On our right was Haku, Eddie, Chavo, and a bunch of other guys that came with the purchase of WCW.
Anyway, we asked our server if he thought they would mind if we went up and talked to them. He said they were cool, but wait until they finished eating. After they finished eating, our server came up to us and said, "Hey, the wrestlers said it is cool for you to go talk to them". We were nervous as all get out, but we went up to them with our programs from the event and an ink pen. Val and Christian and Edge were cool, but were involved in their own conversation. Y2J, on the other hand, was one of the most unbelieveably nice guys! He shook our hands and passed our program around for all the guys to autograph. After that, Jericho invited us to hang out for a while and took the time to talk to us about anything, and asked us how we liked the show and how long we had been fans.
That is probably my most memorable moment meeting a wrestler. He was a super top-notch A+ guy and I will always remember that.
Then there was the time when I almost literally ran into Stone Cold and JR, but I'll save that for another episode of Rassler stories with goodoldjl.

Oh, I forgot, I got followed by Nash Hall and Hogan, as this was when WCW was shootin' Disneyworld, and my dad kept tapping me on the shoulder, I go what, and he pointed behind me, I saw a guy with a painted on beard, a bandana, and sunglasses pulling a suitcase behind him, my dad whispered you know who that is right, I go no, and kept walking, and then watched Nitro that night and realized, I had blown of the Hulk. Nash and Hall where with him, but couldn't tell who they were. At that time I watched WWF exclusivly

I met Big Show at MSG when he was signing autographs and got to have a picture taken with him in 2003. Complimented him on his match with Lesnar that he had weeks earlier at Judgment Day.
I also met Chris Benoit and got an autograph from him the day before King of the Ring 01. Was nice and shook everyone's hands, looked happy to meet the fans.

The Rock (back in February of1997, at a Raw in Nashville) Jerry Lawler (in the mid nineties at a local show in Springfield, TN... may have been USWA...) Chris Hamrick (at an indie show here in SC) Earl Hebner (weird, weird guy... he was in the back during a TNA houseshow, and he just stared at me... kind of rude... but I think he had a heel ref gimmick going on, if I'm right.)

Shane Helms when he was still Hurricane, Regal, Eugene, Matt Hardy bumped into my breast and didn't say sorry, Rhyno, Coach, Maven, Orton, and Benoit when he was WHC. He looked REALLY happy and was a very nice guy.

I met Kevin Nash.
He was ordering noodles.
He was a really nice guy..the first picture we took, the flash didn't go off..so he asked us if we'd like another one as he was concerned the first one wouldn't come out at all.
The fact that he offered a 2nd picture was pretty cool of him to do considering we bothered him while he was trying to get supper.

Maven and The Hurricane at a Smackdown Your Vote rally at Kent State. lol, I had a WWF autograph book, but Maven wasn't in(Hurricane was). So I said to him 'Sorry you're not good enough to be in the book; you can sign the cover.' And he did. Hurricane was TEH AWESOME towards me. I gave him a limited edition of the LOTR series and he marked like a kid.
Met Chris Nowitski at a hotel in DC. TOTAL chance meeting. My friend and I were on an east coast road trip and decided to stay at the Sheraton in DC. Whilst we were checking in, I look over and see him checking in a few tellers down. I tell my friend(damn near beg him cuz he was tired and wanted to get to the room) to go to the car and get his camera. He does, and as he is doing so I approach Chris carefully(after reading on the net how some wrestlers are w/fans) and just say his name. "Mr. Nowitski?" He turned around and looked down(I SWEAR, he's 6 foot 5 if he's an inch) at me and said "Call me Chris." So I did. We talked for about 15 minutes or so. I asked what he was doing at the hotel(USO Benefit) and why he quit wrestling(concussions). Then, I asked him about his character. "They say that one's character is just the person themselves turned up a bit. Is this true with you?" He smiled and chuckled a little and dedpanned 'Yeah, I'm a gigantic asshole in real life.' We shared a laugh, he took the photo and we parted ways. It was fantastic.

Several years ago at a Raw show (the one with Trish Stratus taunting Bubba Ray Dudley by dusting tables) I was standing in the parking lot and it was raining off and on (I ended up losing my voice the next day). My buddy and I saw a bunch of the wrestlers (Viscera, Crash Holly, Kevin Kelly, Steven Richards).
The nicest one, however, was Al Snow. I remember it was pouring down rain and he ran from his car to us. He signed several autographs and took several photos then hurried back to his car as he had a plane to catch.
I'll always mark for Al because of that day.
The two other things I remember about that night was when it was again raining. I was friggin' soaked and a car passed by us with Ivory smiling and waving and it looked like Trish Stratus was driving and wearing glasses.
The second thing was when we first got there we saw Triple H coming out talking on his cell phone and what looked like a fatty in his mouth. It could have been a pen or something else, but it really looked like a joint.

I've met way too many to list. Of the current roster, I've met about atleast half of them, each with their own cool story. Just ask me about someone in WWE, and there's a 50% chance I met them and I'll have a cool story to tell.
I'll tell you about Arn Anderson: I met him about a year and a half ago at Mohegan Sun Casino while he was gambling. I went up to him to say hello, but he ignored me the first 2 times. I felt I might have been rude (as I'm never rude) so I said I'll happily leave him alone, as I'm a long time fan. I was about to leave, but he turned to me to say what's up. I said cool, I've been watching him since day one. I asked if I could have a picture with him, if he didn't mind ofcorse. He said "I don't mind at all", and I got a pic of me and him sitting down gambling, as my friend that was with me took the pic. He looks REALLY pissed in the pic, but I guess that's just the way he looks, because he was really gracious about taking the pic once I told him I was a long time fan, and started talking about the 4 horsemen. I'm an artist, and i told him I was going to paint an old Picture of Ric Flair, and I would like to have it signed one day by him. After the short conversation, we took the pic.
After that, I asked if I could have the picture signed, and he said he didn't mind. He took the pen and tried to signed it, but the pen ran out of ink! (it worked before on others). He said that it won't write on that material and I need a sharpie! I never got that sharpie or the autograph, but Arn was cool.
