most of you have probably seen my photo album with all the wrestlers, so I'm not going to go crazy here.
Almost did get a picture with Regal a few years ago, he agreed but no one would take the picture, and I didn't do the thing where you take your own picture. It still haunts me.
As far as Edge goes... met this guy 3 times. Back in 02, 09 and 10. Back in 02, he was at this restaurant. A total mark who has stubs for arms and legs was there. Edge, Lance Storm, and Hurricane took all kinds of posed pictures with this guy. It looked good, but as I said, this guy was a mark. He totally bought wrestling characters as real- he was a stubby little man, but the dude isn't mentally handicapped, as months later he went on a rant of how bad of a person Lance Storm was for being in the Un Americans.
In 2009 I met Edge after his TLC or whatever with Jeff Hardy in Chicago. So we saw him, Christian, Truth, Mysterio, Umaga, Jeff Hardy and maybe others at Giordano's Pizza. EVERYONE was signing and taking pictures. Edge wouldn't take pictures with anyone...saying he felt beat up from the match and didn't wanna look bad in his pics. Some guy took one of him signing his ringside chair, and he just kind of called him an asshole but didn't run after him or anything. Guy was a total dick...after he got Edge and Umaga on the chair he bragged and said "IM SELLING THIS ON EBAY!!!!" Umaga said he'd break his glasses next time he saw him, and Edge said he hopes he got 2 cents for it.
And last September I finally got a picture with Edge, who was eating at TGIF with Striker. After the came out they signed and posed for everyone.
Its true that these people are really just people, but regardless of what anyone thinks, an encounter with them can make your day, as Providence Peep is aware of. Congrats on your good luck, and I hope they come back when its warmer.
