Bret Hart was one of if not the best in the ring for actually not injuring his opponents. The excellence of execution for sure in my book

The only Wrestler who hadn't Injured another Wrestler in the 20+ years he was Wrestling. That takes Skill and Perfection.

So go on, is there anyone? I had a good think before I posted, and there's literally no one. If it's just a signature and a shakey hand moment I don't think I'd do 30mins in the rain for anybody?
I've met famous people, and they're just like normal people, only famous!

If it was just a sporting hero, no-one just for a sig and a handshake.
If it was to sit down with them and have a chat and get to know them a bit, then quite a few key people. I would for Mike Schumacher, I would (if he was alive) with Ayrton Senna and maybe a few other people, but NOT just for their signature. It is a very interesting question as I would have to truly respect what they had achieved and felt that it was worth my effort just to let them know that I respected them.
As for wrestling being fake etc. I am not a fan, however the film that was just released about it "the wrestler" opened my eyes to how much they could get hurt and I respect that indeed. It is not fighting it is choreographed gymnastics (or something) and that still takes massive skill.
Cheers

I'm not a wrestling fan so I don't know who he is but it's cool you're happy about meeting him. I literally bumped into 'The Script' the other week and it's weird that you see these folk on TV then all of a sudden you're standing right next to them chatting.
As Steven said the film is brilliant, not what I was expecting so I don't mock wrestling like I used to.

I think the film really opened peoples eye to what pro wrestlers really go through.

I used to love wrestling when I was younger. My brother (JB) had the Bret "Hitman" Hart pink glasses (And he says his not camp
). I saw Davey Boy Smith (British Bulldog) in Woolworths in Croydon many, many years ago, but I think his dead now?
Bret hart lost his brother (Owen Hart) and brother in law (Davey Boy Smith) iirc.
I stopped watching it when my Mum got rid of Sky years ago and I would watch it now, but I cannot justify ŁXX.XX per month on it or Ł15.00 on the main events.
How many people here saying wrestling is for people who don't have girlfriends, etc watch a bunch of blokes kicking a ball about, groping each other when they score and go to the showers together after a match. I think its called football?

The queue was to meet Bret Hart for his book release.
Forbidden Planet is a Memorabilia Store. They stock figures and what not for die hard collectors.

The Hitman was my fav wrestler, i used to have his sunglasses when i was a kid. I remember watching him fight the british bulldog at summerslam at wemberley!!
One of my friends is going to calgary next month to go to wrestling school, I think Lance Storms school who trained at "THE DUNGEON" which for those of you who are out of the loop was where bret hart trained.
