Each year the pro wrestling world honors its top stars during the Cauliflower Alley Club banquet in Las Vegas. I've been fortunate to attend the last few years. The class of 2024 was extra special as it honored some of the biggest names in the sport that were the highlight of my time watching as a kid.
Honorees included: Sting, Buff Bagwell, The Dudley Boys, Kurt Angle and so many more. One of the highlights for me was seeing Lex Luger, known as The Total Package. As a woman of faith myself, it was inspiring to hear how many of the award winners honored the Lord in their speeches. Quite refreshing from some of the other award shows you see on TV.
Many of the best moments came outside the banquet as we mingled with the talent and other attendees. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting the family of the late, great Mr. Perfect Curt Hennig. They were kind and funny and they shared personal stories of Curt that were fun to hear.
I also had a very unique moment with Ata Johnson, who is the mother of Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Poolside, Ms. Ata was playing her ukulele and wanted us to sing along with her. Not only that, but she taught me how to hula dance along with the music!
These are the types of things that go on during The Cauliflower Alley Club. It's about making memories, making connections, making friends, and having fun. Congratulations to the class of 2024, and I look forward to next year!
