This is a thread of the many people Brodie Lee dropped with a big boot in CHIKARA.
We start with the original, Tim Donst in August 2007, 5 months into Donst’s career. This was Brodie’s first singles match as “The Big Rig” and he... set a tone.

From September 2007, a Canadian man named Mike Stevens arrives. Brodie kicks him in the face twice and Mike Stevens is never seen again. A regrettable journey across the border.
The first of two from October 2007. Brodie bossing around the Olsen Twins in a trios match against The Colony so he could kick Soldier Ant’s head off.
This wasn’t the only ant getting booted that month. Worker Ant gets destroyed and Brodie’s formal name makes an appearance 13 years before his AEW debut!
November 2007, Toryumon graduate Passion Hasegawa arrives to have some fun. Pink tights? What the hell is that all about. Brodie Lee ain’t no sexy boy. He don’t dance, son.
A misfire from a small show in between the 2007 and 2008 seasons, with Cloudy saving Sara Del Rey from the big bad Brodie boot and taking the hit himself.
Brodie was meant to team with the Olsens at King of Trios 2008 but Colin left for the WWF, leaving Brodie and Jimmy to team with Retail Dragon. Brodie didn’t like that. Not at all.
Here he is booting his future Blood Warriors pal Kzy from Dragon Gate (then wrestling as mcKZ!)

Again: he really didn’t want to team with Retail Dragon.
The chants may be a giveaway: this was around the time Brodie started catching on. He was done playing around with these jokesters. Even sweet Jimmy Jam!

Brodie celebrated an one year undefeated singles run in April 2008 and invited Shane Storm’s wacky face to the party.
The next night the Brodie Lee vs. Claudio Castagnoli feud began! Brodie won their first fight after a controversial DQ then dropped ol’ Double C with a boot for good measure.
Brodie returned to his comfort zone (beating up people shorter than him) in May 2008, booting Pelle Primeau before and after the bell.
Even the great Lyle Williams on the outside was loving it!

Everyone gets their turn, even the referees. The second Brodie vs. Claudio match saw Bryce eat the boot and the crowd seemed mortified.
From June 2008, Brodie faces Drake Younger in a wild match and earns the title of deathmatch legend.
This isn’t a boot but the algorithm says if you like videos of big boots you’ll also like Brodie Lee somehow chokeslamming Drake Younger on his face on the apron.
Mitch Ryder brings the 
and Brodie brings the boot in a no DQ match with Claudio from July 2008, a deadly combination!

Before he was A Very Good Professional Wrestler this young lad wrestled as Ultimo Breakfast, a man with a toaster for a head. Brodie battered him obviously.
In the battle of CHIKARA’s big men you have to say, Hydra had Brodie’s number for a second there.
September 2008 was a real treat. Claudio vs. Brodie in the first CHIKARA cage match, which holds up so well. It completely rules. Brodie bleeds hardway For The Business, there’s boots and slams and powerbombs and a massive dive off the cage, love it.
Brodie represented CHIKARA in their series against Big Japan in October 2008, testing his strength against Daisuke Sekimoto. Sometimes a single boot just isn’t enough.
Frightmare debuted at the end of 2008 and had his first CHIKARA match against Brodie. It ended quickly and painfully.
