the older Duggan gets, the more he reminds me of "the Dude."

Ol Duggan doesn`t sound as dumb as he looks seems a pretty straight up kind guy.

@dude075wm More details on the story as explained by Tony Atlas were published on wikipedia a couple of months ago.Apparently the information was removed because WWC was starting to have many problems.Previously there was read on wikipedia that there were many wrestlers in the incident locker room including Bobby Jaggers and Jose Laureano better known as Chicky Starr. Also Brody died in a PR hospital where he was not allowed to be operated ordered by one WWC key person.

Tony Atlas returned to Puerto Rico 20 years later to participate in one of the WWC wrestling events. While carlos Colon accepted that he helped protect Jose Huertas to achieve his innocence on Puerto Rico's local Television. That video is not available anywhere on the internet but was seen on life television about 8 years ago.

@dude075wm Look at my post comment.I am from Puerto Rico.Not afraid of Colon,Jovica and Huertas.Not even afraid to the USA promotional and psicological war on Puerto Rico to maintained the island current centenary colonial status.I am just a fan of wrestling and was a kid when the incident happened.There was a key word Huertas said that Atlas heared "business".It is very sure that Atlas was afraid about loosing his life too as many of the wrestlers that were in that locker room.

RIP Bruiser Brody

WWE Legend 4-Ever!

[DrKevKangs]

The guilt about Brody's death is all on Jose Huertas Gonzales better know as Invader 1 and Carlos Colon a main wrestling promoter in Puerto Rico.They wanted to keep the Puertorican wrestling bussines in their hands and put Brody out of the scene.Brody was trying to became one of the legal owners and key persons in PR Wrestling company WWC.WWC was used so much to do politics and to maintained PR Colonial status with the USA in the 1980's as pro boxing is used to achieve that goals these days.

Atlas did speak out - and was willing to testify. The Peurto Rican authorities never notified him of a trial date. Jose Gonzales (Invader #1) was arrested and chaarged with 1st Degree murder. he was acquitted because he claimed self-defense. Atlas, in later interviews, would say that it was not self-defense but murder. Atlas thought it may have been a money issue - but nobody really knows. (Except Gonzales - Carlos Colon and Brody - and none of them are saying.)
