As the match begins to conclude, Abdullah and Brody make their way to the outside of the ring. The match has devolved into complete insanity by this point with the bell ringing constantly. The finish didn’t matter here – this was a brawl. The arena’s spotlight can’t keep up with them as they battle around the outside. Taz points out that the cameramen and producers have no idea what’s going on either and that’s what made this feel so believable.
The fans in the stands begin running for their lives as the competitors battle towards them. These fans were legitimately terrified of these performers and kayfabe was still a real thing at this point, especially in Japan. The match is eventually thrown out, as both men make their way to the back bloodied and exhausted.
Taz points out that Brody lost his life after being stabbed in a locker room in Puerto Rico. This was a terribly unfortunate situation, and it’s a shame that Brody wasn’t able to continue his career for many more years. Brody was a trendsetter and he changed the history of the business, and even to this day people try to copy his look and style.
That sums up today’s episode of The Taz Show. You can listen to the show yourself anytime here, and I’ll catch ya tomorrow for another recap!
