Bruiser Brody is perhaps the biggest name in pro wrestling in the 1980s to NOT work for Vince McMahon. However, he is a Dallas/World Class/Japan/AWA legend, and for that reason alone absolutely should be a Hall of Fame inductee. As a performer, Brody's iconic style and image were the inspiration for many wrestlers, his outlaw spirit as a wrestler though maybe his most connective trait making him forever important in the industry.
