THE Madcap
I'm MASSIVE and RIPPED
Thought this was the most appropriate place to post this...
Was flying out of Orlando today to Houston (where my parents live) and was sitting in the departure lounge playing on my psp when I noticed a ginger kid with a HBK hat running down the aisle. Didn't really phase me as I've seen so much WWE merchandise the last few days. Then I saw what would've been his dad, ushering him over. Did a 2nd take and realised that this guy (Cowboy Hat, tattooed arms, beard sunglasses) was none other than Mr Wrestlemania himself the Heart Break Kid!! I quietly marked out at this moment but was too chicken to approach him as he looked pissed off (probably having worked 4 days on the trot...).
Slightly dejected, I got on my plane, sat in First class (that's how I roll), turned around as I stowed away my ahnd luggage, and HBK was 3 seats behind me in First Class! He acknowledged my DX shirt (which by coincidence was the last clean shirt I had to wear today), but again, I didn't want to invade his personal space...
So I waited a long 2 hours or so until we arrived in Houston, walking to Luggage collection where I had a slight panic that I lost him and the photo moment that would top off my perfect holiday was gone. But then I saw him hanging out outside the bathrooms waiting for his kid to do his business, so I asked for a photo with him and...
Really wanted to ask him what he thought of The Rock's aloofness, but he was quite aloof himself, so I left him to it. although he did perk up a bit when I told him I flew out from the UK for 'Mania, to which he responded "Cheers guys, really appreciate it, hope you enjoyed the show"
all in all he was pretty friendly and had no problem signing things for people who asked, in the lounge, on the plane etc. Was nice to know that I was bigger than him too haha
Thanks for making my trip Shawn, and helping ease the pain of Flair's retirement!
