Brooks has already managed to capture the imaginations of wrestling fans in Australia with his well-decorated career in his home country. This is our Indie Spotlight Watch with Adam Brooks.
Brooksy is an absolute force to be reckoned with and is already making his mark around the globe.
I first found wrestling when I was around 11 years old I’m fairly positive it was somewhere around that age.
I was hanging out with my neighbors at the time, and I remember one of them said let’s go to mine and finish watching the rest of this tape from the video shop I got; its wrestling, at the time.
I was like, yeah, okay, whatever, not having a clue what wrestling was. The VHS tape was WrestleMania 16 from the year 2000.
Being that the tape was half-watched already, I was up to the triangle ladder match between the Hardy Boyz, Dudley Boyz, Edge, and Christian.
I remember being mesmerized during the whole match, but what caught my eye was the guy in baggy pants and weird-colored hair—Jeff Hardy.
From that day on, I did my research and rented all the wrestling that was at my local store, WWE and WCW, but in the end, I was hooked on WWE and Jeff Hardy.
At the time I didn’t have cable, but my neighbor taped every raw for me from about 2002 onwards.
