Phantom Lord Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 Old rasslin card from Kansas, KS on this date in 1978. Who no sold more? Brody or Bruiser? Also would you ever see a show with three guys with the same character name on it in this day and age? . Also on this date in Lexington, KY. Spoilered for size. How the hell did Lou Thesz find himself working these southern cards? Spoiler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted October 5, 2016 Share Posted October 5, 2016 1. There was a funny story about the Bruisers getting into a backstage fight over money in the Wrestling at the Chase book. Dick (who was notoriously cheap) later came up and handed Brody a check and everything was copacetic. I wonder if this card is what that was over? 2. Jarrett was probably just lying about Thesz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a thread over at WC with a picture of a cheque made out to Lou from the late 70's, and he wasn't getting much money. I believe he lost a bunch of money when he got divorced. I'm not going to link to WC from my work computer for fear of the spambot, but they have a topic with a September 18, 1978 Memphis card that Lou was working.

Reveal hidden contents It's precisely because both Dick and Sweetan were already plying their trade in St. Louis that Brody was renamed "King Kong" Brody here.

Curt McGirt Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Yep, and I think Larry Matysik came up with it as he was busy writing all the St. Louis programs. They had Brody carry a woman up on top of a building and shot promo photos. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PetrolCB Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 (I don't know how to post tweets, so I had to cap it) Is Dynamite like, on the brink or what? (There's a Reddit post on this, but none of the links worked.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NikoBaltimore Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Holy crap, I knew Dynamite was in rough shape but I didn't know it was that rough. At 57 years old he's way too young to be in a nursing home, yet with all the damage he took not sure I'm surprised about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After thinking a bit further you're right, editing post now. But still sad to read Dynamite at 57 is in such rough shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PetrolCB Posted October 6, 2016 Share Posted October 6, 2016 Though the things he was known for are generally perpetrated by people with a serious divot in human decency, it's still a shame that at that age, he's stuck in a nursing home/hospice environment. I'll say this, I hope he gets well, and doesn't turn into a pilled up zombie, for his and his poor wife's sake. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
