We’ve reached the end of my year end review and, I have to say, I’m a little disappointed over some relatively quiet months that I had – though I did manage to meet two of the biggest stars in pro wrestling in back to back months. Check it out:
October
October saw THREE major events, the first being New York Comic Con! I struck out at last years NYCC but this year would be quite different.
Highlights include: Meeting two of my childhood crushes in Trash Stratus and Danielle Fischel (better known as Topanga Lawrence from Boy Meets World). I also met sci-fi novelist Peter David.

Up next was perhaps my biggest wrestling meet: The Face that Runs the Place himself…Mr. John Cena. The Doctor of Thugamonics was doing a signing for his new children’s book, Elbow Grease, and…woof. What a line!
Highlights include: Meeting Cena though the wait nearly broke me.

Complete list of wrestlers I met include: Tony Garea, Drago, Rene Young, Christopher Daniels/Kazarian/Scorpio Sky, Sinister Minister, Jacques Rougeau, Ray Rougeau, Pat Tanaka, Paul Diamond, Beverly Brothers, Bob Backlund, Harley Race, Eli Drake, Moose, Matt Sydal, Ted DiBiase, VIRGIL, Sid, and Kevin Nash
Highlights include: Watching a BIZARRE interaction between a lady and Harley Race (spoiler alert: awkward makeout occured).

November
November began with a top, top want of mine: “The Cleaner” Kenny Omega.
Highlights include: Omega could not have been any nicer and it was truly an honor meeting one of the best wrestlers in the world today.
