About Leukaemia

I love World Wrestling Entertainment

I have always been a huge fan of wrestling. I used to watch it on Foxtel in Australia all the time. I watch all the Pay Per View Events. When I knew I was going to go to New York for treatment for my leukaemia and for my bone marrow transplant I wanted to get better quickly so I could go to the wrestling. My big target was to go to a Pay Per View Event- Summerslam held in Long Island New York in August. I was lucky enough to get there. That was just before we went back to Australia. I also started to collect WWE Superstar figures. They are not sold in Australia so I like showing them to my friends. I also went to the WWE restaurant - The World in Time Square New York. I went twice. I also buy my figures there.

RAW Madison Square Gardens - 26 August 2002 - I went to my last wrestling event for my US stay by going to RAW. It was a huge show with the comeback of Kane and a special appearance by Jimmy Superfly Snuka.
Summerslam Long Island - 25 August 2002 - Summerslam was held in Long Island on 25th August. We had ringside seats. Brock Lesnar beat Rock for the title. Sean Michaels had an unbelievable fight with HHH.

RAW Continental Arena - Meet Brock Lesnar - 15 July 2002-  Our family went to RAW at Continental Airlines Arena in New Jersey. WWE were very kind to arrange for another meeting for me. Normally kids only get one meeting with a superstar.  I met Brock Lesnar, 'The Next Big Thing'. He is one of my favourite wrestlers and he has the best finishing move in wrestling.

Meet Hulk Hogan - 29 June 2002 - WWE Headquarters in Connecticut set up a surprise meeting with Hulk Hogan backstage. He was great and told me to be strong. Thanks to Sue Aitchison from WWE Corporate for organising the evening.
Madison Square Gardens - 29 June 2002 - WWE were kind enough to give me tickets to the wrestling in Madison Square Gardens in New York in June. It was fantastic to see the Superstars live.

9 Dec 2002- My sister Nina was lucky to attend a Sony Wonder night at which John Sena, Dawn-Maree and A Train attended. I was too sick from all my chemo to attend. I was very disappointed. 
RAW Madison Square Gardens - 26 August 2002
This was my second wrestling event at Madison Square Gardens Jimmy Superfly Snuka was given a lifetime achievement award by WWE Kane made a surprise entrance to stop Test from  burning an American Flag
The crowd went wild for Kane. He had been out of wrestling for 5 months Brock Lesnar - The Undisputed Champion came out and smashed HHH and Undertaker The crowd loves to see Undertaker and his bike. Here he makes an exit from RAW
Summerslam Long Island - 25 August 2002
     

We went to WWE Summerslam at Nassau Coliseum - Long Island New York. We were lucky to buy tickets because the event was sold out in 90mins.

I thank the Doctors, Nurses and most of all God for helping me get there. Rico - The Stylist is one of the stars of Smackdown. A past Tag Team Champion, he lives in Las Vegas Matt Hardy is also a WWE Superstar on Smackdown. His is a time WWE Tag Team Champion
I sat next to Macauley Culkin (Star of Home Alone Movies) at the wrestling. He lives in Manhattan like us. He is very nice. I was lucky to see The Rock at Summerslam and to get this signed poster. Tonight was the last night he wrestled this year. Tomorrow he starts shooting his new movie Helldorado Sean Michaels had not wrestled for four years. He is a past champion. His fight with HHH was fantastic
The Rock vs. Brock Lesnar was the most anticipated fight for years Brock Lesnar won the title and became the youngest ever champion I was upset when The Rock was booed off by the crowd. He is a Superstar
RAW Continental Arena - Meet Brock Lesnar - 15 July 2002

15 July - We went to WWE RAW tonight at the Continental Airlines Arena in New Jersey.  It was great to see how the TV show works. I was also very lucky that WWE had arranged for me to meet another superstar. Brock Lesnar is 'The Next Big Thing' He is a two time NCAA wrestling champion. He is going to fight for the Championship at Summerslam in August. This photo below from WWE shows Brock on the TV that night.

I want to say thank you to Sue and Greg from WWE for organising the meeting. Greg is in the picture (top right) with Brock signing my t-shirt. It was a HUGE thrill.

Thanks to Peter and Elena Skountzos for picking us up and taking us home.

Meet Hulk Hogan - 29 June 2002  

 Above- This is the night I met Hulk Hogan at Madison Square Gardens. What a huge thrill. Nina and Cousin Stanley were also very excited.

Hulk Hogan was the star of Wrestlemania I in 1984. This year he was the star again with his fight with The Rock at Wrestlemania X8. He is 6 foot 7 inches tall and weighs 275lbs.

Madison Square Gardens - 29 June 2002

Raw Brand comes to Madison Square Gardens- 29 June 2002

It was a great night. We had great seats, as you can see from the photos. I went back stage and I saw Hulk Hogan in the venue when Hulkamania began- Madison Square Gardens.

 

Hulk Hogan normally fights on Smackdown Brand but made this special trip back to Madison Square Gardens and fought on a Raw Brand show.

  Here you can see my letter and my tickets from WWE saying I am going to go backstage to meet a WWE Superstar. D' Lo Brown is about is be hit in the head by Justin Credible

Bubba Ray Dudley and Spike Dudley teamed up to fight William Regal and Christopher Nowinski. I was a great fight. Here you see a Wazzzza move. Bradshaw defended the Hardcore Title against Shawn Stasiak. Boy they hit hard when you see it live. Steven Richards tried to steal the title.   Matt Hardy got a huge cheer. He won his fight against Raven

Golddust is a very funny Superstar. His teammate was Booker T in the tag team match Booker T pinned X Pac to win the tag team fight. I saw my first spinarooney live Big Show is just HUGE. He is in the NWO faction. You can see he is about to give Golddust a suplex
Trish Stratus lost a title fight against Molly Holley. She is half Greek. She now lives in Toronto Canada.  Brock Lesnar fought Ric Flair. Brock Lesnar IS the next big thing. Chris Benoit interfered in the match with Brock Lesnar and Ric Flair. Ric Flair should have won.

Rob Van Dam has the best moves. He had a fantastic ladder match with Eddie Guerrero. Some of the moves look very dangerous.  Here you can see when Rob Van Dam is just about to win. Chris Benoit tried to interfere in this match as well, but Ric Flair saved Rob Van Dam Rob Van Dam holds the Intercontinental Title. What a great match this was.
I have never heard a louder cheer than when Hulk Hogan came out. The crowd went wild. 'Hulkamania is still running wild brother' Undertaker, in the main event, fought well and should have lost the WWE title to Hulk Hogan tonight.  What a huge surprise when WWE Owner Vince McMahon came out to interfere in the Taker Hulk Hogan match. Hogan was robbed.

Here I am with Cousin Stanley with my collection
