10 Most Heartwarming Moments In WWE History

5. Connor Michalek Pins Triple H

World Wrestling Entertainment get a lot of flak for a lot of things, but one thing that can't be denied is just how much the company are willing to do to put smiles on the faces of children. Yes, the 'PG' Era may frustrate many, but just think of how many magical moments the promotion has been responsible for, delighting young people across the globe, and none more so than young Connor Michalek. Suffering from a debilitating case of both brain and spinal cancer, the small boy was on borrowed time. Passing away aged just 8 years old in April, 2014, Connor was at least treated brilliantly by WWE. Having earlier used up a 'Make A Wish' request to meet one of his heroes, it seemed Michalek wouldn't be allowed a second wish, one to meet Daniel Bryan. Following a social media campaign to make it happen, Connor not only met Bryan, but stole the wrestler's heart. In one of the nicest moments to ever happen in wrestling, the boy was given a full entrance, and pinned Triple H in front of the entire WWE locker room. Warming hearts further, Connor didn't want to hit 'The Game', but got caught up in the moment and became an honorary WWE Champion.
