Could someone explain the brusier Brody thing???

On July 16, 1988, Brody was in the locker room before his match with Dan Spivey in Bayamón (a city near San Juan, Puerto Rico), when José Huertas González, a fellow wrestler and booker,[6] asked him to go into the shower to discuss business. Brody entered the shower stall and a few minutes later a scuffle ensued, followed by two groans, loud enough for the entire locker room to hear. Tony Atlas ran to the shower and saw Brody bent over and holding his stomach. Atlas then looked up at González and saw him holding a knife.[7] When the paramedics arrived, Atlas carried Brody downstairs to the waiting ambulance, as, due to Brody's enormous stature, paramedics were unable to lift him.[7] Brody's last words (as told to Atlas) were, "Tell my little son I love him, and tell my wife I love her, too." González, who always maintained his innocence, was initially charged with first-degree murder but was later reduced and tried for involuntary homicide. Dutch Mantell received his subpoena after the trial was over and Tony Atlas refused to testify, and without his testimony the District Attorney had no case. Some wrestlers (the Youngbloods) were scared to death and made no declaration to the police at the time of the events. However, Tony Atlas who declared what he saw to the police but later refused to testify, came back to Puerto Rico several years later to work with the promotion. In January 1989, González was acquitted on all counts, citing self-defense. Carlos Colón testified against Brody during the trial.

Well this should be interesting as hell. Sad but intersting. I really do think that the guy has something wrong with him. He's just batshit crazy.

I'll translate that Spanish bit: "I killed Bruiser Brody and these gringos can't do shit. Respect to Mr T's mom though. For real."

He legally changed his name to Warrior so he could still call himself Warrior without WWF lawsuits, Linda. WWF owned the character and wanted to stop him from using it in other promotions.

While I feel sorta bad that people are laughing at him legally changing his name... he totally deserves it. It's such a dumb thing to do.

A MMA fighter did it too. His nickname was War Machine and Marvel apparently threatened to sue so he changed his name to War Machine legally.
