I was 13, at a urinal stall in DFW Airport. About 1982, when a shadow passes over. I look up, and Bruiser was standing next to me, takin a piss. I beamed as he was my favorite wrestler, and said "What's up Bruiser,? he made a gnarly face at me and said "what's up lil man." It was awlsome.
did he check out ur pecker?
Frank was a lot better guy than most people will ever know. I was lucky enough to be his friend.
My father was actually a friend of Brody's. My family ran a gym in San Antonio, and several of the job guys from Joe Blanchard's Southwest Championship Wrestling promotion frequented the place.
Ivan Putski and Brody had met my dad years before, and it wasn't uncommon for them to stop in once in a while.
The first time I met Frank, I was probably about 8, and he was in the back of the gym quietly talking to my dad. I recognized him from TV, and my dad introduced me to him. He did the Brody bit enough to scare me and then chuckled and said "nice to meet you, how are you doing?" My dad said, "You remember Frank from the wrestling matches, don't you?" And I nodded and went on my way.
I remember him being very soft-spoken and polite. My dad only saw him a few more times over the years. As wrestling started to go national, Brody spent a lot of his time in Puerto Rico and in Japan. Dad was really sad to learn that he was killed.
Brody liked San Antonio. He worked with WCCW as well as SWCW here. I don't remember if Abby ever worked here.
@@jorel6745 Brody liked to bully people. Couldn't be any happier the man who did him in got away with it. Result.
Damn that's an incredible story!
In Japan they called Brody The Intelligent Monster .
My friend, Steve Casey (RIP), told me they were all in Israel for a tour. They told Jeep Swenson that Lance Von Erich was goin over. Jeep said he wasnt doin it. Steve said Brody kicked the locker room door open and got in Jeep's face and said " YOU WILL DO THE JOB!". guess what, Jeep did the job!
Wow 😮
Brody could a been a perfect biker gang sergeant at arms
The guy asking the questions goes round in circles instead of just asking a question 😂
Yeah, I noticed that...
Ask the Question already!!
I only saw Brody once but I tell you he was one person that look bigger in real life than on TV and on TV he look pretty big
A 6'5 guy working a hardcore style. Yup, he was no joke. You have to be nuts to be in a ring with him, or be Abdullah the butcher
Or not mess with Andre
Brody was one of my faves back in the 80's. He was a one man juggernaut!
@@KoolKumasi Yes, don't make Andre angry. 😳
Bruiser Brody was a true Champ. God bless him
Gordy died today 7-16-2001 another Gagin who could make the Japanese scramble .
Hansen and Brody. 2 of the best!
Mick Foley in his first book also mentioned the way Japanese fans reacted and how quiet they were until a punch was thrown or someone took a big bump.
A Brody - Hogan feud around WM 5 or 6 would have been huge.
It would have, but Hogan wouldn't have allowed it. Remember, when Joe LeDuc came in during Hulkamania they made Joe The Headbanger and gave him the gimmick that he would headbutt his opponents until he got DQd. That was likely due to Hogan not wanting to defend the title against LeDuc with the crazy lumberjack gimmick because he was just as stiff as Brody.
@@ernestcruz6316
Jos LeDuc was old as hell at the time in 88 wouldn't have worked, Brody could but I guarantee he wouldn't bully McMahon with Andre there
Hogan tried to get Brody there but Vince wouldn't do it. Hogan knew it would draw big money!!!!
@@KoolKumasi- Andre The Great as my Aunt Liz used to call him.
@@typatterson4513
Possibly but who knows same could've been said if Hansen would've jumped there too, the fans would have to buy that and this is not territorial fans but fans from all over, would have been interesting to see.
Hogan would have probably been reluctant to work with Brody.
Which is probably why Vince never bothered to try and get him over to WWE during that time. Then again Hogan didn't exactly have a shortage of monster heels to go against during the 80's.
As stiff as Brody was, he doesn't compare to Andre the Giant when he didn't like you. Hogan took beatings from Andre, so I don't think Brody would have scared him, especially if it meant drawing money.
Brody looked like a monster and he looked like he would kill you in the ring.
The original Sheik was the same way. Fans at the arena were genuinely afraid of him.
I remember being a little kid and buying the magazines with Sheik in them. I thought he was terrifying.
I always loved when he teamed up with kerry von erich against Hayes and gordy
Love your show Dutch thank you for taking the time to give us these great stories
Down here in Australia we got to see a very green bruiser Brody he was awesome. He was Hardcore before Hardcore was a thing.
I love how Brody had a following all over the world. By the way, Australia sent us in Puerto Rico one of the best tag teams, The Fabulous Kangaroos 🙂
Frank, outside an arena, was a nice man.
He's definitely a top 50 big man of all time.
Such a great conversation
Maybe because he could pretty much kick everyones arse if he wanted to? At least he looked like he could. lol
Brody was a legend
IS a legend!🎉😊
@@scruffymuffy6766 I use was because he is no longer around but I guess he lives on in the minds and the hearts of the fans
Was he?
He was a scumbag. Plain and simple.
How did Brody handle Sammartino?
Brody was ECW before ECW.
Very cool
That guy interviewing Dutch is talking more than Dutch.
I swear it's still one of the coolest visuals to this day watching Brody swing the frickin chain & watching the Japanese fans all scatter. Him and Stan had those people going crazy and the Japanese tend to be damn good about holding their shit. They hold their applause and when they do applause it happens and it's over just like that. Some guys though like Brody & the Road Warriors got em to go banana. Scott Norton was a monster over there & understandably so if you've ever seen a Scott Norton Japanese match
No, we don’t know. Stop asking if we know. WE DON’T KNOW.
Brody was a big attraction in the 70-80s ,he was king kong brody briefly in the wwf/wwe mid 70s when he broke Brunos neck, then had problems with his name , because the original Bruiser (awa), was still wrestling,, their was also king kong bundy and king kong mosca at the time,, but he was legend, in texas (von erichs), awa, nwa, japan ,puerto rico etc,,,hansen, abdullah butcher, original sheik, sabu, the masked spoiler, mark lewin,, the grahams were real for that era 57-87, and will be missed!!
It was Stan "The Lariat" Hansen who accidentally broke Bruno's neck. Not Brody.
That was Hansen that broke Bruno's neck
Aquaman dude would be a great brody. His documentary as a Hollywood movie would be epic!! A love story, athletic, crazy wrestling and a murder in pr... it would be seller
Jason Momoa too soft and zesty to pull that role off
That’s actually a good idea if they need a Brody.
Damien Sandow should play him in the movie. Aquaman is too dark.
And Sandow is too SOFT to play Brodie
They can use makeup to lighten up Mamoa
@@Nostalgia9478 maybe Nick Camarato
@@Nostalgia9478too soft? but then you mention Manoa…
Brody wrestled for McMahon sr. In 1977….
My ex Father-in-law wrestled Brody back in the day. Said it was the hardest he'd ever been kicked in the stomach was wrestling him lol. And my ex Father-in-law was not a small guy and pretty tough....lol
Frank did not deserve to be murdered. That was horrible.
HUSS! HUSS! HUSS! I don’t think that Dutch knew him very well.
Harley Race tells it best about Brody. I like the story he tells about Harley and Nick Bockwinkel VS Brody and Hanson in Japan. th-cam.com/video/BCMyPBqxP6w/w-d-xo.html
@FreeCrack4Hunter🤡
@FreeCrack4Hunter hahaha!
Him brody n Hansen. Is the other guy Gordy
I wonder how his murder was perceived of in Japan.
I can IMAGINE the mourning and grief there.
It was being negotiated
In Japan they reacted to rock concerts back then, the same way also, all sitting, no chairs, applause only before and after each song, no sing alongs, silence. Quite odd shit.
If Brody was swinging that chain around me, I'd get out of the way. He didn't exactly care if he hit a fan on accident with it or not.
BRUISER BRODY IS THE G.O.A.T OF WRESTLING...
I'll bet Haku wasn't, or Danny Hodge
Hodge stretched Brody in Mid-South (around '74) when Brody got stiff and taught him a lesson.
Why was bruiser Brody killed thought like the reason behind it????
Cudos to the guy interviewing however this is a southern wrestling talk show.. too articulate for that haha
The Japanese love color
FFS, quit babbling and ask your question
Is that why you all set him up? Convenient you left right before the stabbing
Why don’t you?let DUTCH. TALK. I want to hear from him not you.
Bruiser Brody would destroy Terry Gene Bollea better known as "Hulk Hogan".
Brody vs hogan at a wrestlemania in the late 80s would have been epic.
Hogan would of whoop Brodys A$$. They where about same height but Hogan had more muscle. And Hogan is tougher then he gets credit. He was trained in Japan. And could shoot.
@@shawnsdr3406sorry Frank would absolutely demolish Terry in a shoot
Hogan gets a bad wrap from the public today, but most wrestlers still see him as a God. In saying that, I'm going with Brody on this one.
The reason y hmmm . Lol it's fkn Brody he didn't no what he was going to do next so how do you build a strategy against a monster. Answer run .
MC talks too much!
He is a Hater When it Came To Brody
Harley race would say that brody got what was coming to him
Because Brady was not far in real life from the character he played in the ring. Unpredictable, erratic, hot tempered and unbalanced. Especially with the promoters and bookers. But no matter how tough someone is, there is always someone who will be tougher, even if he has to cheat the law to do it. And that's what happened to Brody. There were unwritten rules and codes in the business but Brody did not play by them and it led to his demise.
He was like he thought he have to be in Order to feed his Family. He was a family guy.
@@Na_Desportiva that is understandable but lots of guys were not like that and still fed their families quite well.
@@PassivePortfolios different things result for different people.
Who is this interviewing Dutch? We want Dutch to tell stories. Ask a question and then be quiet.
If he was so tough he would not have died in a shower in Puerto Rico
What an ignorant comment. By that logic Bruce Lee was a wimp bc he was killed by an asprin.
that's absolutely fucking terrible of you. gutted with a huge knife, medics took 90mins to get there, then spent all night on a stretcher. he died in a shitty hospital about 12hrs after. you heartless idiot.
Yeah he was stabbed from behind because they owed him money
He got got off guard he was expecting a talk not to have a knife pulled on him
He once sucker punched dick the bruiser then ran away before he got his ass kicked
Off Topic, but POS LA Knight is a blatant RIPOFF of The Rock
FAKE Razor/Diesel/The Reneage 2.0
It's both sad and hilarious that this LA Knight guy is what passes as a star in wrestling today
Actually it's the other way around 😅
@@WilliamWiest1959Uh huh, and Goldberg ripped off Gillberg too, right? lol
But he’s gonna get over cuz their ain’t nobody in that company doing that kind of attitude era type of shit anymore since the pg era kicked off so it’s a no brainer he get over
@@astonishingaa-ron2529 To be honest, id take LA Knight over Cringey Cody even though LA is a blatant ripoff. lol
He got what he deserved in the end. Sorted out properly in a shower room. Thoroughly deserved it. No real loss to anyone except wrestling
I'm pretty sure it was a loss to his wife and child
@@kevthegoat8774 and?! Hate it when gimps like you pull that one. Who cares?! It wasn't his wife or child. It was him. Big deal they cried. How many people did he hurt? Often for fun? Reckon his kid wouldn't have been brought up to be scum too? No loss. Even his kid probably barely remembers him.
Brodie Lee kinda looked like Bruiser Brodie I don't know if anyone noticed it but it's just me imagining things
Somewhat. You might also be thinking of Nick Comoroto whose been compared to Brody.
Yeah all 3 favor to me.
mantell's presence at brody's murder is really suspect in my opinion. i think mantell knew and saw it all and, unlike the brave tony atlas, mantell kept his mouth shut and was rewarded with high paydays in puerto rico. mantell is the type of person who could see a person get beat to death and mantell would look the other way and tell the cops "i didnt see anything." mantell is a low life with no moral or ethical compass
Would you say that to Mantell's face?
@@BOBBYSOX86 lol of course y not. if he physically attacked me i'd just sue.
@@rachaelnichter5525 😂😂😂
You know you could be totally wrong about this
