Joe McCombe has cerebral palsy and is bound to a wheelchair. He made the trip to New Orleans with his family all the way from Ireland to see WrestleMania 30.Watch report“It’s probably one of the best feelings in your life because this is something he’s wanted for so much,” said David McCombe, Joe’s father.Leading up to the event, Joe met and took pictures with many of his heroes, but someone stole the family’s camera from the back of Joe’s wheelchair during Sunday night’s show.“(He had photos with) John Cena, Daniel Brand, the best and the biggest stars in the WWE, and they’re all gone,” David McCombe said. “It’s been terrible to be honest. I can’t put into words how disgusted we were last night. We just wanted to go home. To be honest, if we could have gotten on a plane, we would have left.”On Monday the family received a donated camera, all charged up and complete with a memory card that can hold up to 2,000 pictures.And a representative from the WWE delivered a goody bag full of gear, including autographed pictures, T-shirts, hats and a wrestling belt.Joy quickly returned to the family.“We are so grateful to have the camera,” David McCombe said. “To be able to build new memories with Joe, especially at tonight’s show. This belt he’s been looking for for quite a while. What the WWE and you guys have done for us will never be forgotten. We’re so grateful and will always be eternally grateful to you for that. And I just want to say thank you so much.”Lakeside Camera Photoworks donated the replacement camera so Joe could collect new images from Monday’s event and his trip to New Orleans.The trip was part of a wish granted by a charity called Starlight, the equivalent of the Make-a-Wish Foundation in the United States.Sign up for our email newsletters to get breaking news right in your inbox.
