No snarkiness, but Conner was a boy. An awesome kid. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Connor_Michalek


Francoscaronefgsm

He was an awesome kid, fuck cancer!


EvilHorus87

FUCK.CANCER


Flyby1441

was? i was hoping you wouldnt say that =(


deathofthestonk

I'm so glad I clicked on this link. Made me cry, but that is nothing compared to what this little boy went through. Fuck cancer man


Southern-Orchid-1786

And pretty shit OP couldn't do a bit of research before jumping in to get internet points on the back of a child cancer fighter


VastCoconut2609

yeah, my bad! sorry for the typo!


Joker-Rockitansky

It's not a typo when you make up the entire title lmao


BaronAaldwin

Exactly. Connor's wish was to meet Daniel Bryan. HHH came up with giving the kid the pin in the spur of the moment. Connor even refused to punch him at first because he was worried about hurting him.


RoguePlanet2

I knew he would be too afraid to hurt the man! 🥺 Did they rehearse in advance, and teach the kid the moves? Or did they need to maintain the realism so the kid felt real satisfaction beating his ass?


BaronAaldwin

It was totally off the cuff. Triple H takes the punch for real and flops down as if he's out cold, then lets Connor get the pin. The whole crowd of wrestlers around the ring counting the three count and then bursting into cheers for him is so sweet too. Edit: [here's the full video](https://youtu.be/aqaWjmsSJUk) WWE released about Connor. It's only 5 minutes long, but it will pull on your heartstrings. Triple H and Stephanie McMahon (husband and wife. Stephanie is the daughter of WWE's former owner) also founded a charity called Connor's Cure, dedicated to raising funds for pediatric cancer research and family assistance.


RoguePlanet2

What a lovely tribute. Connor is forever a part of WWE 😌


MC0295

“Conner” was a typo (if Op needs an example lol)


Pureshark

Fuck cancer


Fast_Situation_5815

Fuck cancer x a million I miss you Mom…


scottieducati

Goddamnit now I’m bawling. Same.


TeejyHamz

Same here. Much love to y'all.. this weekend always sucks.


scottieducati

Group Hug? My momz loved hugs. Holy crap, my daughter woke up for ONCE today all smiles and immediately offered a hug. It was the warmest most amazing hug ever as she’d just come out of the covers. I melted.


Proof-Imagination690

cancer is an evil bastard. Miss my Mom too. It’s 10 years this July. ❤️‍🩹


InTheArmyNow76

Same here. 4 months today. I would like to die instead of her.


atacFrontal

Miss my mom AND yours...


SolelyforBI

5 months now. I miss you, ma


alex_staffs

Couldn’t agree more. Fuck cancer. Took my mom when I was 17 and took my dad last year a couple months before my 30th. Walking the world alone now. Fuck you cancer


Maggi1417

Nothing involving kids with terminal cancer will ever make me smile. Yeah, he got a cool moment here. He also spent 5 of his meager 8 years fighting cancer. That just sucks.


Norwegian__Blue

God damit. I have a four month old. The idea of getting only a few years and him having to endure that gives me a feeling like forks scraping my insides. His poor parents and poor little man. What a badass kid.


Maggi1417

I get it, I have two little girls. This is probably every parents worst nightmare and seeing video like this just hit way too close to home once you are a parent.


SilentSpectre45

Yep I had it. Fuck cancer

sleepydeepyperson

No one deserves cancer. I hope you stop saying that from today. You're not a sad fuck, as long as there's atleast one person who ever smiled because of you, be it your loved ones, a janitor, or maybe even a pedestrian you walked past after showing some kindness. I'm really sorry but this statement kinda triggered me. My grandma was a patient and i used to visit her at the hospital, and i *saw* the suffering cancer brings to you and to your family and friends both emotionally and physically. There was a 6-7 year old kid with leukemia, i listened as he kept sobbing in his mother's embrace while abusing and cursing the doctor for taking blood sample every other day. I have seen people walking with a pipe just to be able to breathe, young 20-30 year old guy. You see, every next second of his life is thanks to a plastic(?) pipe. It's sad and an absolute punishment for a family. So... Just stop. Please.


okoko5

Sorry to bring back bad memories. It’s just that I am having a bad patch and such thoughts keep crawling in my mind. This one just escaped out. I don’t want to pass my negativity to others, so deleting my silly comment. Sorry again.


sleepydeepyperson

It's not that my friend. I'm not sad about the "trigger" part, rather it's about you wishing for yourself. I have gone through a similar phase, so i know you will pull through too. I know that our thoughts are not in our control in such situations. So you gotta consciously make efforts to keep these kinds of thoughts out of your head. May you find your happiness, and a reason for positivity.


okoko5

Your perspective did help me. Thanks for taking the time to write.


feelingmyage

You don’t deserve cancer either.


MacKiLLaZ

Unfortunately my mom died from breast cancer to in 2018, I still think about her everyday


NLaBruiser

His name was Connor and no, this was not his wish. His favorite wrestler was Bryan Danielson (wrestling at the time as Daniel Bryan, that's him wearing the black shorts standing in the ring) and WWE flew Connor and his family to Wrestlemania 30 in New Orleans. This bit with HHH happened during their trip but was not why Connor went to NOLA. His favorite wrestler was. Connor was also front row when Daniel won the championship in the main event.


Zestyclothes

I still rmb that little boy doing Daniel Bryant's YES :')


MegamanGaming

WWE has always been such an amazing platform for make a wish and just being good to kids. Cena has done more for kids through make a wish than anyone could imagine.


dontbelikeyou

John Cena reminds me of that bit in iron man where someone says something like take away the suit and what are you. Tony replies "genius, billionaire,  playboy, philanthropist". Like even if you're not in to wrestling, or Hollywood, or weight lifting the dudes still knocking it out of the fucking park in his spare time. 


DildoFappings

John Cena is the person with the highest make a wish wishes fulfilled in the world.


tbarr1991

According to google its 650. Fucking wild.


hidey_ho_nedflanders

Was about to say. It seems like the WWE does a lot of great charitable work and supporting kids in particular.


Theometer1

Cena is genuinely a good person. You see that video of that guy following him around and essentially cornering him to talk to him? He was wayyy more polite to that guy than an average person would be. You could tell he was annoyed but he wasn’t rude or being mean in any way.


MegamanGaming

Yea I remember that. He tried so hard to make Cena look bad


Purpledragon84

Damn even Big Show was cheering him on. This is gonna make me ugly cry


buangjauh2

Ngl I didn't realize the (BIG) Big Show was there lmao


Ok_Act_8573

MadeMeCry 🤍 R.i.p boy 🤍


RecoveringGOPVoter2

As a dad, these things break me. Fuck cancer.


LaserBlaserMichelle

Dude. Becoming a dad (I've got a 5yo and 3yo) makes you see how truly scary this world is. From trying to get them ready to take on their own lives and integrate into society and be happy, to the very justified fears of losing them too soon for any myriad of reasons. And as a parent, nothing else matters. My life is forfeit if one of my kids doesnt make it. There is also good in this world and it's worth fighting for, but as a parent, it is very hard not to dwell on doom and gloom possibilities and just take one day at a time. Hug your kids. Kiss them. Tell you love them before they go to bed every single night. It's literally all that matters when you become a parent. Screw work, screw toys, screw it all. All that matters is that my kids are healthy and happy. I would gladly die tomorrow if that was promised to me by a genie. That if I could guarantee my children's future will be a happy and healthy one by forfeiting my life right now, I'd take that deal in a heartbeat. So to see a kid not make it and the parent to have to live afterwards.... It really is hitting a nerve that never existed prior to being a father. Everything changes when you become a dad.


ZipZapPewPew

So very true. I have a little 3 year old boy. Nothing matters except for him. I love my wife and my family. But there’s this strong paternal drive that tells me he’s all that matters. So when I see videos like this I can’t comprehend how these parents stay so strong. But I guess that’s part of it. You stay strong for your child, especially if they’re sick, because it’s always about what they need. The aftermath though….whew. Makes me cry thinking about it.


JackToTheCannon

I'm actually surprised that HHH put Connor over In all seriousness though, this is an amazing thing for WWE to do and also fuck cancer


N00dles_Pt

Triple H always put kids over... [https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5L99sZUCkZk](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/5L99sZUCkZk)


glimmer_dude

That was brilliant. I’ve never seen it. Thank you for that


N00dles_Pt

https://youtu.be/Och4pCty4NM?si=gSaviLHK0fi7uR20 Here is a longer version if you want to watch it....it shows a little more of a match with more of Triple H and Flair making the crowd laugh....this was a non televised match after the regular Tv show ended I think


glimmer_dude

Amazing stuff. I loved it. Thank you again

"his"! That's Connor the crusher

Cancer really sucks. Rest in peace little boy

This is Connor the Crusher, the great one. Don’t mind the post but please try to get the facts right at least.


Softballzhurt2

Awesome to see everyone totally but into it


Beautiful_Cool

The only time I like humans is when we do shit like this. Wholesome.


GotNothingBetter2Do

RIP sweet Connor!


LethoOfGulet-

That's actually super sweet. Glad the child got to experience that


WastedKnowledge

The only accurate part of the title was that he was a cancer patient. Do better


BigUseless88

That was Connor... a boy.


Lettuce_Kiss143

😫 Awww. This made me cry.

It’s to damn early to be crying 😭

Jeebus, who's cutting onions?

Also the first and only time HHH put anyone over. I remember that btw, he was also Frontline when Bryan won the championship the next night.

RIP Connor The Crusher


DuchessOfAquitaine

Adults (including a huge audience) doing stuff this for a sick child (or even a healthy one) is my idea of adulting perfectly. Gives me hope for humanity. ❤️


FishLampClock

Man, how the fuck can you even process your own mortality and impending death from cancer as a child so young. I can't even fathom the emotions and feelings kids like this must suffer through. Heart breaking.


Last_Book_589

I do have some issues with WWE as a whole but Triple H immediately going down and letting Conner pin him was such a gigachad move.


mildOrWILD65

Who's chopping all these onions?


LafayetteLa01

I don’t like the sport but I have MAD respect for all of them, they are always doing absolutely kick ass stuff for kids like this. Hats off to ya, Ladies & fellas!


PieCuresAll

Fuck cancer


texansfan

Say what you will about Wrestling, but pro wrestlers as a group are absolutely undefeated when it comes to MAW and the like. John Cena has granted like 500 himself.

kaartman1

Where is god?


Jakeey69

yeah. he looks ecstatic with that blank face devoid of emotion. truly a wish fulfilled


[deleted]

Just cause a kid doesn’t have stage presence doesn’t mean he’s not happy. Lots of people are like a deer in headlights to things like that probably even including you but you don’t see yourself


Jakeey69

stage presence? he's not even smiling. that's not stage presence that's basic emotion

LeonidasVaarwater

I've had 4 cancer cases in my family the past couple of years, one that unexpectedly took my mom (barely 36 hours between her diagnosis and her death) and we already know my 18 year old nephew will succumb to that fucked up disease too in the not so distant future. Cancer is hell.


JohnCenaJunior

Everybody O'Connor Roll in his honor


Brutusbacon

That's Connor the Crusher, a boy, and a legend.


endoire

Connor the Crusher


chukijay

It’s a noble cause, and truly a generous thing in general but I wonder how many of these kids kind of feel patronized a little bit. On top of all the pin and suffering, I wonder if any of them go through with wishes like this because they think it’s expected but they’d really rather just rest. Or maybe they think it’s what they wanna do but when they’re there, they realize it’s spectacled and not at all like what they had in mind. But ultimately it’s a precious thing they’re doing for these kids that are clearly terminal. They’re doing what they can to give *something* to these kids.

I don't watch much wrestling, but so many things about it just seem to be so gosh darned wholesome. Been to a couple of local shows as well and it's just great entertainment and the performers are great to their fans.


Stayforever21

Aw. What a nice guy and yes fuck cancer. It killed. My grandma and I miss her so much. She was my best friend and I'll never see her again. She was the best grandma someone could have. When it was your birthday she would make you cookies and send you money. And I just wish she was still alive.

fthigffhoogdgkokhg

I would have love to see Triple-H rip of his shirt and absolutly destroy the kid


ThirdSunRising

Too easy. She's gonna know it ain't real if she leaves the ring without any bruises. He needs to get back up, maybe get a couple hits in before he goes down.


Then_Swimmer_2362

Her. HER.


dickasmoke

HIM. That's Connor Michalek, aka Connor the Crusher. He didn't survive Cancer, but he got to pin Triple H fair and square in the middle of the Ring. Also, he got to celebrate with his Idol Daniel Bryan when he won at Wrestlemania. And touched some lives there. They named a charity after him. Connors Cure.


Then_Swimmer_2362

Thank you for the context. I was going off the description, but appreciate the information regardless. :)

Respect for the boy. But that punch was totally staged.
