You might think the WWE is fake and believe grown men shouldn't watch it. But I highly disagree -- this video you are about to watch will make you look at the WWE in a different light!

Connor 'The Crusher' Michalek was able to live his dream through the WWE. Connor was diagnosed with brain cancer and sadly passed away in late April but the WWE was able to grant his wishes before he passed.

Through the Make-A-Wish Foundation, Connor was able to meet his hero, Daniel Bryan. Not only did Connor meet Bryan, but he also managed to tap out the WWE champ.

When Connor met Bryan, he was not yet the WWE champ -- but the WWE went one step further and invited Connor to Wrestle Mania. Not only was Connor sitting front row with his father but he was also able to witness Bryan winning the championship.

You may not like wrestling. You may hate it, you may even think it's fake, but you cannot deny they make dreams come true for people less fortunate -- and I think that makes up for all the hokey gimmicks they do week in and week out.
