Template:Characterbox (Skylanders) Template:Q Wrecking Ball is a grub worm who is one of the main 32 playable Skylanders in Skylanders: Spyro's Adventure.
Background
Personality
Although not much is known about Wrecking Ball's personality, in some media, he is shown to have some qualities to that of a dog.
Biography
Wrecking Ball was once a tiny grub worm about to become the main ingredient in an old wizard’s cauldron of magic stew. But when he was dropped in, the wizard was shocked to see the little grub devour all of the soup and emerge from the cauldron 20 times larger and with a long, sticky tongue. The poor old wizard was even more surprised seconds later, when Wrecking Ball proceeded to swallow him whole. Eventually he ran, quite literally, into the powerful Portal Master Eon, who was intrigued by how he came to be and impressed with his unique abilities.
Story
Skylanders: The Beginning
Template:Q Wrecking Ball was one of the Skylanders who participated in the battle against Kaos and his army. He is seen assisting Stump Smash and Boomer, snacking on a feline enemy. However, the Skylanders were soon overpowered, allowing Kaos to destroy the Core of Light. Wrecking Ball is seen trying to hold on to a rock as the destruction of the Core threatened to blast all of the Skylanders, but the Grub Worm lost his grip, and he, along with the other Skylanders, were blown into the void of space, where they eventually reached Earth's atmosphere and turned into toys.
Abilities
Having consumed an entire cauldron of magic stew, its effects not only made Wrecking Ball grow 20 times his normal size and enhanced him with magical energy, but also gave him a long, sticky tongue which he uses to lash at his enemies. He can also curl into a ball and steamroll into his enemies using the magical energy he uses as a forcefield. Wrecking Ball can also let loose out a burp of gas from his mouth to blow enemies away, and can also devour his enemies to regain health if he has gained his Soul Gem ability.

Trivia
- Wrecking Ball is considered the cutest Skylander by fans.
- He has a few similarities with the Nintendo character, Kirby. Both are cute, squishy and can devour their enemies.
- Wrecking Ball also shares his tongue trait with another Nintendo character, Yoshi.
- Although Wrecking Ball's species is said to be a grub worm, he looks neither like a grub nor like a worm.
- Wrecking Ball's name, design and abilities may be a reference to the video game Iggy's Reckin' Balls.
- Wrecking Ball only talks normally in the trailers. Ironically, his voice depicted in said trailers are somewhat deeper than that in-game.
- His prototype toy shows that he was originally intended to be an Air Skylander. This early idea was scrapped, and Wrecking Ball was moved from the Air element to Magic.
- His powers seem to be a mash up of two Ben 10 aliens, Upchuck and Cannonbolt. He has Upchuck's long tounge and ability to burp deadly burps, and Cannonbolt's ability to roll.
