The Brother Love Show.

[Nr1Humanoid]

Any personal favorite moments you wanna share?

I prefer one with the Ultimate Warrior where he forced Brother Love to wear a wig and a dress so Macho King would have another woman to hide behind.

He did a damn good impression of Roddy Piper at WM 5

I just realized recently that looking back, they shouldn't have kept the music playing throughout the segment-it was distracting and too loud at times

Great segment for smarmy heels. Brother Love approving of them made me hate them so much more.

Jack Tunney repeatedly poking Bad News Brown in the chest, proving he was tougher than any wrestler in the company at the time. And then getting his ass kicked for doing it.

I didn't have access to the WWF at the time, so had no idea who he was when he was being unveiled as part of the Summerslam line up. As a result, I'll always associate him with the return of Jim Duggan.

I'll never forget Earthquake squashing Hogan so you had to send get well cards and that to him, the tribute video of it I saw first to be honest.

Never thought about it until I heard Love say it on his podcast but they did that to get your address and then they could mail you shit like ads.

Yep. Everytime WWF ran one of those "Send a Postcard" gimmick whether it was for Matilda or Hogan or anything else it was to update their mailing database.

It was a great show for the heel to get over on the face and make way for a new feud. I think the Bossman was one of the biggest segments. He was still very new to WWF and dominated Hogan. For a long time it was either older guys (even Bundy was around a year before working with Hogan) taking it to Hulk or it was random heels one after the other but they were on the losing end. Having Bossman destroy Hulk so quickly showed he would be "a big deal quickly" and he was for a long time.

Definitely Quake's attack on Hogan. I was only 10 at the time, and wrote a letter to Hogan wishing him a quick recovery and I offered to take a cricket bat to Jimmy Hart's head on Hogan's behalf. I got a reply from the WWF in the form of a postcard thanking me for my letter, although they never responded to the cricket bat offer. Of course, if I knew then what I know about Hogan now, I would have sent a letter to Quake thanking him for crushing the racist orange turd instead.

I wonder if Reno Rogers is kayfabe related to him. I mean why not, and I do wish when they brought him back in 93, they had him be Brother Love, not this stupid cowboy character.

I remember when he was on Primetime on a Halloween episode and things didn't go good for him.

Anyone thinks perhaps as someone that left there mark on wrestling, Brother Love is more well know, did more for the business than Tom Prichard?

I loved how much disdain Gorilla would have for the brother love segments on Primetime even warning viewers it was coming up next so if you were meaning to rotate your tires or needed a large meat based sandwich now was the time to do it.

"He is a piece of human garbage."

Bobby would usually counter with something like, "I agree. You're talking about Phil the cameraman, right?"

It amazed me when I heard that.  I cannot believe I never put 2 and 2 together that I never got WWF bs in the mail until after I sent a card in for Hogan.  That is pretty brilliant on the marketing and salespeople's part.

Didn't really affect me any differently, as I was already subscribed to their magazine. If they sent me different ads, I wasn't aware of it.
