The man on the left is Joe Manganiello. He played Flash Thompson in Spider Man.

And the movie was actually very good :y:

Rock N Roll Express
Ax (of Demolition)
Ronnie Garvin
Ashley Massaro (outside of the Verizon Center at Summerslam 2005 when she was filming a promo)
Pretty sure I've met the Honkey Tonk Man but I think I was really young, so I can't remember

Myself and the rest of the people waiting to get into a WCW Worldwide taping in Orlando were avoided by Dean Malenko back in '97 or '98.

Also, my best friend's 17 year old girlfriend was given a hotel key by Rhett Titus earlier this year at a RoH show (as a part of the show, obviously). That should count for something.

Haven't really met too many, even though I've been a fan for about 20 years now. Never really wanted to meet anybody to be honest.

screech 09-18-2009 07:49 PM

I haven't had many other opportunities to meet people :-\

DAMN iNATOR 09-18-2009 07:54 PM

Don't have any pics for proof, but when SD! was doing a house show one night a few years back in East Lansing, I stopped at the local convenience store to pick up a couple things and actually got the chance to shake hands and exchange pleasantries with Booker T. That's it though.

thedamndest 09-18-2009 08:00 PM

When I was a kid I picked up Booker T's toothpick at a house show after he threw it into the crowd. My step dad said that it was absolutely disgusting and in retrospect it really was.

redwings3431 09-18-2009 08:09 PM

i went to booker t's fanfest in houston before WM 25 in april so i got to meet that whole lineup...awesome for the most part...found out that the dudley boyz are straight douches...that was really the only downside

Droford 09-18-2009 08:48 PM

Ive never met anyone, but my mother used to tell the story of when she worked at a local hotel and Andre the Giant came in and got plastered drunk, got into an elevator and pissed all over the elevator and she almost had to clean it up because housekeeping wasnt there for some reason.

RGWhat316 09-18-2009 08:50 PM

I used to be able to meet a bunch, they used to come to a local sports card show, but now that place hasnt had anyone wrestling related for over a year. And usually we would get 3-4 a year that would come to this place.

You know.. I have met plenty of wrestlers but by pure luck. I live in Tampa and those guys are everywhere here. I usually try not to bother and ask for autographs. But anyways, I have met:

-Edge at a local Wal-Mart.
-Mick Foley at Boston Market(it was awesome.)
-Chris Jericho at a concert.
-Basham Brothers.
-Roddy Piper and Jake The Snake at a convention.

Two of the greatest technical wrestlers of all time, and a dead man. :y:

Cool King 09-19-2009 11:26 AM

I have never met a wrestler. :'(

Vastardikai 09-19-2009 12:09 PM

Team 3D. Columbia, SC (Brother Ray is an ass, but stole some Jager while singing "Take me Home Tonight" by Eddie Money. D-Von seems a bit cooler)

Fluff Fagswell. Columbia, SC and Orangeburg, SC (Orangeburg didn't speak. Shoulder Checked me in Columbia and didn't even have the decency to apologize afterwards. Hence why he's always Fluff Fagswell, in my eyes.)

Sumie Sakai, Shooting Star, and Kylie Pierce. Orangeburg, SC (had dinner with these guys after an indy show. Kylie is weird. She's ugly at a distance, but kind of cute up close. Sumie is polite to a fault. Star is fucking awesome. He's a Finlay protoge. I got drunk that night. Was more concerned with looking like a mark than looking like a drunk. Also, I can no longer see Team Macktion without thinking of Backyard Burgers.)

kareru 09-19-2009 12:16 PM

i met The Bushwackers after a show they did in my home town

also met Robbie brookside, i sort of played a joke on him i walked up to him and said
' great match tonight, you know im a really big fan of yours etc etc'

then as i was about to leave i said 'well its been nice talking with you edge, say hi to christian for me'

he looked at me and started laughing and said 'nice one kid'

Anybody Thrilla 09-19-2009 12:41 PM

Chris Jericho, Chris Benoit, Lillian Garcia, Shad Gaspard, Ricky Ortiz, DH Smith, Tyson Kidd, Natalya, Armando Alajandro Estrada, Umaga, Jimmy Wang Yang, Gregory Helms, Jeff Hardy...I feel like I'm leaving some people out.

I did a Jagerbomb with Abyss and Shark Boy, and I met Nigel McGuinness at an HWA show, along with pretty much their whole roster that none of you would even know or care about.

Swiss Ultimate 09-19-2009 02:58 PM

I've only got to meet Shiima Xion, the Briscoe Brothers and Larry Sweeney in person.

In the 90s ECW came to Jacksonville, FL twice and I was at both shows but didn't get a chance to meet any of the guys. I did get some of Taz and Sabu's blood on my shoes though. That's pretty personal, I guess.

Savio 09-19-2009 03:42 PM

I only talked to Scotty 2 Hotty and Mick Foley
