Brooklyn Brawler's 33-Year WWE Career, The Term "Jobber", The Rock's First Opponent, Beating Triple H

Steve Lombardi (@brawlerreal) is a professional wrestler known for his 33-year career in WWE where he wrestled under the name Brooklyn Brawler. He was also known as Abe "Knuckleball" Schwartz and Kimchee. He sits down with Chris Van Vliet in Indianapolis, IN to talk about how his career got started, having matches with pretty much everyone including Hulk Hogan, Paul Orndorff, The Ultimate Warrior, Bret Hart and many others, being The Rock's first WWE opponent in a dark mark in 1996, getting a win over Triple H on Smackdown in 2000, the hilarious backstage segment he did with "Stone Cold" Steve Austin, his legacy as the greatest enhancement talent ever, whether he should be inducted in the WWE Hall Of Fame and much more. Quote I'm thinking about: "Going from being worried about what might happen to being excited about what might happen is only a mindset shift away" Sponsors: PURE PLANK: The future of core fitness!
