TNA Star grants a Wish!

Friday, July 10, is a day six-year-old TNA mega-fan Reegon will
always remember, and a day that changed Rockstar Spud forever.
Through TNA's partnership with the UK's Starlight Children's
Foundation, arrangements were made for Spud to spend the day
with Reegon. Below is an entry from Spud's journal masterfully
capturing the emotion and life-changing events of the day:
Today was the best day of my life...
Im 32 years old, I have been in the wrestling business for 14
years and in life I thought I had seen most things, felt most
emotions and created some amazing memories. If you would have
asked me up until today what my greatest moment was, you'd most
likely expect me to say something that relates to the pro
wrestling ring or being on TV.
I can honestly say that not one thing I've accomplished in
wrestling or in any other aspect of my life will stand out above
this day.
Today I met a 6-year-old boy named Reegon. He has a
life-threatening heart condition that requires an operation, one
that most do Starlight2not live through.
Reegon's family contacted a great organization called STARLIGHT
that grants wishes to sick children. Through Starlight, Reegon
was given the opportunity to make a wish come true – any wish.
He could do anything his incredible imagination would allow,
including taking a trip to anywhere in the world or meeting
anyone he desired to meet.
Reegon wanted to meet me.
As I write that line I just filled up with tears again. That
little boy today made me feel alive in a way he doesn't even
realize, and I can honestly say I've never felt more special. He
wanted to meet ME.
Starlight3I got to make this little boy smile, see him
embarrassed, watch his face light up when I'd gift him special
treasures, have him whisper funny jokes his mom wont allow him
to tell. He held me SO tight that I just didn't want to let him
go.
For all the things that this world and pro wrestling has given
me the opportunity of being able to do - forget money, forget
moments, forget EVERYTHING! Things like this are what is the
most important gift this world and this amazing profession
offers.
Thank you Reegon for giving me the honor of meeting you. Today
was the best day of my life.
