MY CHANCE ENCOUNTER WITH THE CHAMP
by scottiboi on 9/8/07 12:48 AM
On August 25th a few of my friends and I traveled from Boston to New York's Manhattan Center to see ROH. Great show as always. Afterwards we went and got something to eat at the Tic-Toc Diner, which is down the street from the Manhattan Center. As we're halfway through our meals in walks non-other than Eddie Edwards, NOAH Executives and the Ring of Honor World Champion Takeshi Morishima. So we walked over told them what a great show it was and thanked them for doing what they do. It was pretty awesome.
By the way later on Kevin Steen came in with his pregnant girlfriend/wife. He didnt really thank us the same way Eddie and Morishima did. He kinda brushed us off. But he was still cool.
Cant wait til we go back for Final Battle

Well duh, Kevin Steen is a dick. :P
No seriously though, why the heck were Eddie Edwards hanging out with Morishima and the NOAH big-wigs?
Where were you sitting? I was in GA... wonder if I handed you a flyer.
Oh right my own Chance encounter with the champ. My first ROH show, the original Manhattan Mayhem. I walked up towards the side entrance of the New Yorker Hotel (I didn't realize the main entrance was on 8th avenue), and hey look, there's CM Punk! He had a sorta WTF look on his face as I extended my arm but still was cool enough to shake my hand. Then I look over at the other guy he's with, some curious looking fellow, and nod. No idea who he is, but he must be a wrestler. I don't know anything about ROH at the time. I find out later, it was ROH World Champ Austin Aries! Oops.

I was sitting to the otherside of the entrance. Like it would be the wrestlers left side.
And I think Eddie was with the NOAH guys, i assume, because he's worked with them. I've seen him wrestle in NOAH before so im just guessing.
