Great pics man. Didn't know Wripwreck was bald now. Would love to meet Great Sasuke. Did you learn any Japanese in prepping to meet these guys.

[sankakugeri]

Love the photos, man. It's one hell of an adventure for you!

Thanks for sharing these with us.

The picture of Bobby Heenan makes me so sad. He has really been through some hell the last few years.

[hellion]

Wow, your thread lived up to the hype. You certainly have met a lot of wrestlers.

It stinks. Dude was so full of life. Barely recognize him like that.

[lordakiyama]

Bobby was still in good spirits despite all he's been through. He's able to just make out a word or two very softly and he was messing around with a backstage crew member with his cain before coming out. He's not gonna let something like cancer get him down.

I think I've seen these more times than my familes photo album!

Gotta ask....is that Vampiro's real hair? It looks just wacky. And since meeting Maryse has she spoiled all womanhood for you in day to day travels?

I want to say yes regarding Vampiro's hair, but only time will tell.

And no, I don't think Maryse spoiled all womanhood for me. She is a lovely lady to be sure, but I like cute Asian girls. ;D
