We all know the story of the killing of Bruiser Brody. In this latest true crime deep dive, I focus in on his killer (Jose Gonzalez) instead of rehashing the whole story once again.
The popular version of that story is that Gonzalez murdered Brody in a shower by stabbing him and then was not convicted due to a corrupt court system in Puerto Rico. The motive: either Brody wouldn’t do a job, it was a money issue, or it was revenge by Brody bullying Gonzalez in the past.
But is that all really true? Let’s look at Jose “Invader 1” Gonzalez on this week’s DragonKingKarl Classic Wrestling Show.
