Sting is definitely up there, I think it's in Vampiro's shoot interview -he says when he went to WCW it was the famous locker room from hell with all the old boys who were on ridiculous contracts, they'd barely speak to the young guys -except Sting who was a complete pro and always up for giving advice.

Vampiro hates Sting. Completely the opposite to what you said actually. He says he's says he thinks he's above everyone in the locker room. Vampiro blames the Stinger for stopping his push because "the gimmicks were to similar". Cant please everyone I suppose. From what I remember at the time, Sting seemed to be one of the worst offenders in the WCW locker room. He didnt seem to give a toss back in 2000. Worse that what he is now.

 

Kanyon's shoot interview was a good insight into the Undertaker. DDP supposedly had a Palm Pilot that he jotted all his matches out on, and it rubbed Undertaker up the wrong way. So when DDP was in the ring once, DDP fucked a move up and he turned to Kanyon and said "I wonder if he wrote that down in his Palm Pilot". I'd imagine DDP isnt to keen on him. RVD doesnt seem to pally with him. People talk in riddles when it looks like they are slagging him off in shoot interviews. There's a mix of people who throw hints out like they dont like him but cant say (unless its London who doesnt seem to care). The likes of Matt Hardy who might need the work in the future.

 

 

What the fuck's wrong with me? my memory is so shit, thanks or correcting me. He said someone in the locker room was nice, was it Booker T?

 

How come everyone in here thinks someone whose delved in drugs or taken drugs is instantly a "bad guy"? Think of the people on here that smoke and drink, that's taking drugs as well, telling me they are all "bad guys"?

 

I know, what the fuck? Also you can't tell if someone's a nice guy from signings, that's nothing like real life.

From personal experience, i can say that I've found Tommy Dreamer, Xavier, AJ Styles and Nova/Simon Dean to all be top blokes.

 

Dreamer told a bunch of needlessly pushy security guards to leave the fans alone (we were waiting around in Dallas for an ECW show) and then made a point to spend ages taking photos and signing stuff for everyone there. Nova was much the same, but went even further after the show when he was literally hunting around backstage looking for "some cool stuff" that me and my mate could take home as souvenirs .

 

Xavier offered me and a mate a lift to a RoH show after chatting with him for a while at a little New York Indy show. Really down to earth and friendly.

Ended up in a pub with Sheamus and Drew Galloway after an indie show in Dublin a few years back,was before they were ''famous'' I spose,but they both came across as top lads,the attention Galloway was getting off practically every bird in the pub was ridiculous,I can only imagine what it's like now in the states,the bastard!

 

Have met Cena,Foley,Angle,Trish and Torrie Wilson at various signings over the years aswell and they all seemed nice enough,except for Torrie Wilson who refused to pose for photos and just sat there looking sulky.

 

No love for Sheamus then? I always thought he was a decent looking fella myself (I can admit that).

The answer is Mr. Perfect.

That's what I get from hearing ANYONE talk about him, by all accounts he was the most sincere of people and an absolute gent.

 

Same goes for Owen Hart too by all accounts, the Road Warriors absolutely adored the guy, and for Hawk to like anyone must mean they're all good.

Wasn't he a serial ribber though? Surely he rubbed someone the wrong way.

I'd say that made him a bit of a knob, to be fair. Dynamite kicked off on Jacques Rougeau because Curt Hennig blamed The Mountie for his rib. And if someone shat into a bucket near me, I'd think he was a ripe dickhead.

 

People see wrestlers being good or bad in a surreal way. "He'd put anyone over" means he's sound and "He'd not put him over" makes him a dick. Frankly, in work I'm looking after myself and trying to make myself look better to climb the ladder. It doesn't make me a cunt when I'm talking to people or when I go out for a drink. But it goes back to what Raven said in one of his shoots about if you're an internet fans favourite they will will let you off with anything, whereas if you aren't they'll castigate you.

I'd personally like to give a shout out to Doug Williams. He remembered my name after about a 6 month gap which really made my day :)

 

Other than Doug, the majority of people I have met in British wrestling are sound. There are exceptions though! The Internet does bring out the bad side of some of them :/
