“Killer” Tim Brooks was a very big name in World Class Championship Wrestling back in the day…He tagged up with, and faced off with Bruiser Brody on numerous occasions, and Brooks was known to be be brutal in his style, not quite like “Brutal” Bob Evans, but still very aggressive and at times even sinister….Brooks also teamed up with Rowdy Roddy Piper over the years, as Brooks was active in professional wrestling from 1970-1989….

I was extremely sorry to hear about the passing of “Killer” Tim Brooks.
My sympathies, condolences and prayers to his family, friends and fans.
He may be the only person who took more beatings from The Von Erichs than us!!
So glad I talked to him a couple of months ago!! RIP
