Source on this? Brody was MASSIVELY poplar in Japan, to the point where people still got emotional over references to him. I find it hard to believe some less popular wrestler in Puerto Rico had deep enough "connections". To have him killed.

* PetTheDog: Wrestling/AlSnow tells a story of when he was a rookie, he and another {{Jobber}} worked a handicap match against Brody. Brody beat Al's partner bloody in the ring, but when Al tagged in Brody worked stiff but safe against him, and when he hit Al with his knee drop, he made sure that he barely made contact while still looking devastating. Why? Because Al had brain damage and had very respectfully asked Brody to do anything he wanted to him except punch him in the back of the head, because he would go blind if his injury got worse.
