  • Brickhouse Brown, now a member of Brother Ernest Angel's flock, speaks on his behalf to an unsympathetic crowd. Brother Ernest is "gravely ill" in the hospital according to Brickhouse, but the fans just want to have fun at his expense--trying to irritate Brickhouse more than anything else. Watch Brickhouse turn it all around like a pro. Very funny!
    Date: April, 1988
    Location: WMC TV5 Studio, Memphis
    Interview: Lance Russell

    This was one of the most epic and funniest heel promos of the 80's. This is what you call commanding an audience. This would have easily fit in on an episode of ECW Hardcore TV back in the day. People don't realize that without Memphis, there would be no ECW, FMW or CZW.

    One of the funniest promos in Memphis Wrestling history. I laughed so hard I cried. Brickhouse Brown vs the fans and explains the absence of his manager Brother Ernest Angel. Better than the lousy, forced humour we see in today's pro wrestling.

    What a great promo from Brickhouse Brown! I have always been surprised he never made it any bigger than he did in one of the major promotions. And-the people here who comment on the racism in Memphis have missed the point. Channel 5 wrestling was THE most popular show in town (including primetime) among BOTH the white and black audience. Wrestling was one of the few cultural events shared and appreciated by both communities. Everybody understood that it was all silliness, and could laugh at it. To this day, I'm not sure any other pop culture event in the US has brought people together in the way wrestling did at that time in that place.

      @KylanHunt1 7 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      Say it again my friend and brother. You are !00% percent correct. EVERYBODY understood that it was all silliness and hype! It brought all races together like Tiger basketball!! God bless you man for saying what needed to be said. I could laugh all day long at Channel 5 wrestling and still go out and have a great day with my friends of all races! Take care man!

      Um no, everyone thought it was real. Nobody thought it was scripted and "silly." We took it seriously! Back in these days wrestling angles and terminology like kayfabe was HIGHLY GUARDED by the industry! People got in real trouble with the law protecting it! However yes, the fun and excitement of Memphis wrestling brought black and white together to enjoy. However the races remained separated by an invisible wall pretty until the late 90s as well, it was a turning point when kids like me were getting out of high school and already had appreciation for different types of music and other cultures thanks to cable (MTV in particular) and we just wanted to party with everyone.
