Character Description - His wrestling style would include a speedy/roughneck mix that he learned while wrestling in the indy feds. Once some WTFL execs approached Adam Starr for a job at the WTFL, Starr was thrilled that he could now be able to spread his talents across the nation on WTFL TV. Not too long after his debut, Adam Starr found a newborn alliance with fellow WTFL wrestler Danny Moore. Together they were named Vertical Limit. Soon after, they captured the WTFL Tag Team Titles from the Reckless Youths (Scott Falcon and Ja Lam), who so far have yet to see tag team action again. Since then, they have defended their titles on a regular basis until losing them in a tag team ladder match against Deep Impact on a Friday Night Fear thanks to The Misfits. Adam Starr and Danny Moore were hell bent on regaining those tag team belts, and even joined ICE, Mike Slade, Zyne, Criminyle, and Tha Realist, or better known as Anarchy. But, Zyne and Criminyle have been excommunicated from the group. At WTFL Enmity, Vertical Limit recaptured the gold for a second time by defeating Deep Impact, and injuring Deadly Dean in the process. Vertical Limit then went on to defend their tag titles successfully until WTFL New Horizons, where before their scheduled title defense, someone attacked Danny Moore and nearly ended his career. Danny is now in the hospital. Meanwhile, Adam went into the tag battle royal and lost the tag titles. Since then, Adam has gone through hell trying to find out who did it. Then, one fateful Madness, it all came together. Tha Realist was revealed as the one who attacked Danny, with ICE knowing about it the whole time. It's now a matter of revenge for Adam Starr, trying to get back at his once former teammate, Realist.

lights on the stage. [b]"Tear Away" by Drowning Pool[/b] plays as the crowd
gets on their feet. At 0:40, the strobe lights stop, the lights return to
normal, and there is Adam Starr standing on the stage, head down. He slowly
raises the TransAtlantic Title to a big pop. Starr then walks down the ramp
with the title draped over his shoulder. He walks up the steps and on the
apron, where he looks out at the crowd. He then steps into the ring and
ascends the nearest turnbuckle, holding high his championship belt. Starr
smirks before jumping down and handing the belt to the referee. Starr

slowly raises his head and looks out at the crowd, who are cheering. Starr
walks down to the ring, surveying the crowd. He reaches the ring, where he
slides under the bottom rope. He walks over to the far turnbuckle and
stands on the second one, looking out at the crowd. Satisfied with what he
sees, he hops down and bounces off the ring ropes, ready for the
match.[/i][/center]

Wrestler He Most Resembles - Christian
Strength - 7
Toughness - 6
Speed - 5
Recovery - 5
Charisma - 7
Fighting Style - Great striking ability, he’s a methodical wrestler with a steady, well-paced attack. Not overpowering, but a great chain wrestler; he can put together combo maneuvers with supreme skill. Average agility but deceptively fast. With a good, balanced attack, Adam Starr even has a fairly good chance of success with his aerial moves.

TRADEMARK MOVES:
Hangover: a Buzzkiller DDT
That's Gotta Hurt: He sets his opponent up like he would do a simple standing neckbreaker. But, he flips his opponent over his head and slams him down in front of him, face first.
Keep Rollin: Crash also does this on Smackdown 2. It's a Rolling Boston Crab. Adam whips the opponent into the ropes. As he's coming back, Adam falls on his back and trips up his opponent. As his opponent is falling forward, Adam has the guy's legs, and he rolls backwards, putting him in position for the Boston Crab. He then applies the Submission move.
Back Attack: Christian does this. He puts the opponent in a Reverse DDT position, but instead does a backbreaker. Looks pretty painful.
Shockwave: Adam whips his opponent into the ropes. Upon returning, Adam lifts his opponent on his shoulders, like a back body drop without letting go, and slams him to the mat, much like Hardcore Holly’s finisher was, but Adam drops down to a sitting position as well, leading to a pinning combination.
Fatal Desire: Jumping Death Valley Driver
FINISHER: Party Crasher - a spear with a running start (Adam on one side of the ring, the opponent on the other) <<
