So I read that Brickhouse Brown has passed away. For those not familiar with him, he was a regular steady in the AWA and USWA in Memphis. The dude was pretty talented, and had charisma. I also believe he may have done some job matches for Superstars of Wrestling and Wrestling Challenge back in the day as well. But R.I.P. Brickhouse!

I never seen Brickhouse perform but I did buy his shoot interviews he did with highspots and they were hilirious. I became an instant fan after listening to him on them. Sad to hear he has passed away, gone too soon, R.I.P.
The Cauliflower Alley club raised some funds for his bills and to prevent eviction from his home. What sort of world do we live in when you evict someone on their death bed. No wonder some people turn to a life of crime.

I remember his Memphis run best. Full of charisma indeed. RIP Brickhouse.

I always thought he & Iceman Parsons would have made a great tag team. I remember when Buddy Roberts would refer to him as "Outhouse Brown". I got such a laugh out of that.
Very tragic way to pass. I'm glad he's no longer in any pain.

USWA is one of my favorite promotions. I grew up watching guys like Eric Embry, Chris Adams, Jeff Gaylord, Gary Young, Iceman, etc. so this one really affected me. :/ I remember when Brickhouse called Iceman "Pillsbury Dough Boy". Good stuff.
Cancer sucks.
