Turns out they were spot on, he went missing on Sunday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gcreptile 10,972 Posted May 22, 2020 Killer Tim Brooks was recently introduced into some Hall of Fame. They say he only hang on for this, so maybe it goes down quickly from here. He looks okay for 2-3 more weeks though: http://slam.canoe.com/Slam/Wrestling/2020/05/17/22807062.html Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

drol 11,947 Posted June 10, 2020 He was 21 back then (1955) and had an intercourse with someone who was 16 or less. That doesn't necessarily make him a paedo, if it was some 15-16 year old, expecially in the 50s. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That doesn't necessarily make him a paedo, if it was some 15-16 year old, expecially in the 50s. Doesn't make him a paedophile AT ALL. Nasty if it really was rape though, rather than consensual. American terminology always confuses on this point. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good sign if you have Jody Hamilton/ Assasin #1,Jim Herd,Thunderbolt Patterson on your future shortlist as they will probably just include Georgia Territory era stars as former"WCW" star Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spade_Cooley 9,527 Posted June 11, 2020 Didn't realise that Humberto Garza, father of the late Hector Garza and grandfather of current WWE main roster workers Humberto Carrillo and Angel Garza was still alive.
