  • This episode of Behind The Titantron covers one of the most controversial and sad tragedies in the History of Wrestling surrounding the death of Brusier Brody.
    Brody was controversial figure in wrestling, who never took orders but rather gave them.
    On July 16, 1988, Bruiser Brody was backstage in the face locker room at Juan Lobriel Stadium in Bayamon, Puerto Rico (nine miles outside San Juan). when booker and wrestler Jose Gonzales asked him to go to the bathroom to discuss business. Wrestlers heard a scream and Tony Atlas walked in to see Bruiser Brody holding his guts and bleeding while Gonzales held a knife. Brody would be dead the next day and Gonzales charged with homicide. A year later, Gonzales would be acquitted on the grounds of self-defense. However, there are some who believe Brody was killed in cold blood and that Puerto Rican officials covered the story up. Even more shocking, some inside the industry felt it was only a matter of time before someone got Brody.

    My mother, married to a retired professional wrestler, has nothing but great things to say about both Frank & Barbara Goodish. IMO, Jose Gonzales, CarlosColon and the entire Puerto Rican territory “powers” have blood on their souls. I’d love to see the Brody story- not just the murder, but the story of Frank Goodish whose business acumen is still legendary as is his reputation for deeply loving his wife & son. Jason Momoa is the perfect actor to bring Bruiser Brody & Frank Goodish to life.

    • @StarryStarryNocturne
      @StarryStarryNocturne 7 лет назад +18

      I doubt either care. Carlos was smiling ear to ear at the HOF and I'm sure he considers Brody's murder a source of self-righteous, egomaniacal pride. Jose doing the Onita deal shows he wasn't sorry and probably thinks killing Brody validates him as a real tough guy and a man's man. They both couldn't have been happier all their lives having gotten away with killing someone they both felt deserved to be murdered.

    Bruiser Brody may have been a shrewd businessman, someone who spoke his mind about the wrestling business, someone who may have crossed paths with different promoters, and someone who refused to put other wrestlers over!
    However, at the same time, Brody saw how cutthroat the wrestling business was when no one else understood that and ended up becoming conformists as a result!
    The situation with Brody and Jose Gonzalez was handled in an unprofessional matter!
    Jose Gonzalez, with Carlos Colon's help, murdered Bruiser Brody in cold blood!
    I never believed it was out self defense!
    It was out of Gonzalez's jealousy of Brody's status as a wrestler!
    The way that Gonzalez handled the situation with Onita, and the so-called tribute match in "Brody's honor" was disgusting!
    I would like to see Barbara and Frank, Jr. get justice for Frank, Sr. (aka Bruiser Brody)
    But as long as Jose Gonzalez, Carlos Colon are still breathing, it will never happen!

    Brody was a dick for sure changing match outcomes and refusing to sell the matches for his own gain.

    Coming to you from Puerto Rico... not one single person on this island believes that shit. Invader killed Brody, and, with the help of Carlos Colon and his own people, used his connections to cover the entire thing up. The ambulance is a dead giveaway of this. Even back then, there were ambulances available in the shows when they took place. And the day that Brody gets stabbed, there's no ambulance? Bullshit.
    Another theory that you didn't cover in the video, since it's more along the lines of urban legend here, was that Brody was apparently responsible for the death of Invader's daughter. See, the wrestlers would go to each others' places to blow off steam and such. In Invader's place, there was a pool and one rule: when you were done with the pool, close the gate, since there were children around the house, especially his one-year-old daughter. Brody, being the piece of shit that he was, didn't, so Invader's daughter wandered into the pool and drowned. So... enough was enough, and Invader decides to kill Brody.

      Like I said, it's more urban legend over here in Puerto Rico. There isn't any solid proof that Brody did this.
      Invader's daughter DID die before he stabbed and killed Brody, that is true. So for all we know, he was in a dark place at the time, and took it out on Brody. I just wanted to add that story, seeing as it's often married to this incident locally.

      He is, as part of their “legacy wing.” Which is the lowest rank as workers inducted there get no video package. Hell, they didn’t even brother inviting his widow, Barbra Goodish to the event or even tell her about his “induction.”

  • @10191927
    @10191927 7 лет назад +19

    Pretty clear to me he was murdered and it was covered up. The fact that Gonzales had a towel and wanted to “talk business” alone, had a knife in the towel and when he got Brody alone attacked him. Considering what Tony Atlas had seen, it sounded like a clear attack considering the severity of Brody’s injuries, and no injury to Gonzales. This has all the hallmarks of a murder motivated by revenge and getting even. The wrestling promotion should’ve been under investigation for conspiracy, I think there’s enough evidence.
    Also, why wasn’t it questioned why he had a knife in the first place? My first question would’ve been why were you carrying a knife in a towel into a bathroom and ask to speak to Brody alone?

    • @loualbino5536
      @loualbino5536 6 лет назад +3

      Marth No one asked him that because no one gave a shit about Brody. Why didn't one of the bigger and powerful guys in wrestling,who Brody coincidently never fucked with,pull Brody to side at some point and talked to him about respecting the smaller guys in the business?

    • @VOAN
      @VOAN 6 лет назад +1

      They didn't ask any of that because they knew exactly what happen but doesn't care shit. Brody was warned before he went to PR and he didn't take the warning seriously. Why would they care if in the end he end up what they actually predict he will end up like? If he did had friends then all his friends failed him that night.

  • @marialuke2116
    @marialuke2116 4 года назад +3

    Brody's harrassment of Gonzalez was uncalled for, but that didn't warrant murder. Maybe some sort of fear generating "dont fuck with me" torture(?) tactic, but not _murder._
    Besides, Brolly's views on wrestlers being too compliant is true. There are many too willing to show up too soon after a surgery when they should be recovering. Several are too compliant to even demand health insurance... It's horrible.

  • @whitewitchoz
    @whitewitchoz 7 лет назад +23

    Brody invested big money in Puerto Rican wrestling(Carlos Colon)...they wanted his money but not his ideas...so this was how they got rid of him. I know there were other factors involved but this was an assassination carried out by Jose and Carlos.

So brody invested 50,000 (rumor amount)bucks Carlos wanted to get rid of him then pays 180,000 to bail invader out??. Also Carlos was trying to pay brody more money to not accept other bookings

    absolutely terrible information. This series gives out a lot of false info.
    Franks wife said that Bruiser tried steroids but it mad him violently sick to his stomach so he could not use them so he wasn't a notorious user of Steroids. Also they HAD to do exploratory surgery on Bruiser because they knew he was bleeding internally.
    To bleed more and for pain reasons, Wrestlers of the day used lots of aspirin which is a blood thinner. That also didn't help. Franks wife in her book said Bruiser bleed out and the great length of time to get to the hospital allowed him to bleed out.

So disgusting and they have a right spot in hell if they believe in it. I can see why invader could get angry he was about to loss a big opportunity and it made him look bad but killing someone? That low excruciating low and Carlos and the team covering up only makes it sick I just hope they’re be justice but not legal if not from street justice like the people of Puerto Rico tend to do sometimes because it’s true here in Puerto Rico the justice you get are slim to none and the hospital are difficult to come by
