Bio:

Max "The Axe" Damage is the predominant big man in New Zealand pro wrestling today.  His blend of smash-mouth brawling, high impact moves and surprising displays of agility and quickness make him hard to plan for, let alone defeat.

He fights just as well alone (remaining undefeated throughout 2007) as he does with a tag team partner.  In recent times, he and Kiwi Pro Wrestling Champion H-Flame formed the "Men in Black" tag team to fight at Australian Invasion, as well as representing Kiwi Pro Wrestling in two tours to Hobart, Australia.

Max Damage was also a WWE Trialist in June 2008.

A regular "knight in shining armour", Damage is the first to arrive on the scene when help is needed and the last to leave when defending his friends in the ring.

Not confining his talent to the ring, Damage's talent has resulted in other avenues opening up - most notably acting roles in Victoria University of Wellington's Summer Shakespeare 2007 producton of As You Like It, and the theatre play Tapanui Tanzi performed in Queenstown in March 2008.

Recently Max Damage manage to narrowly best long-time friend and regular tag team partner H-Flame to claim the coveted Number One Contender spot for the KPW Championship.  Stepping up to the greatest challenge of his career, 
Damage achieved a childhood dream and defeated the fiery veteran Inferno for the KPW Championship - the biggest man in New Zealand professional wrestling realising his biggest wish and winning the biggest prize in New Zealand professional wrestling!
