Guest SteveyP93 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 In the ring, he’s patterned his style after the late Bruiser Brody, a marauder remembered for drawing the entire arena into his controlled chaos. Like Brody, Tomko can brawl - and he can wrestle. WWE.com Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Trivia247 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 and yet Brody seem to have more character depth than some tattooed guy who can do the Can can for a finishing move. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dangerous A 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 That is an insult to Bruiser Brody. While Brody's matches aren't great, or even good, Tomko is only half the character that Brody was, if that. wwe.com doesn't know what the fuck they are talking about.

Guest DeathBecomesYou Report post Posted September 14, 2004 That's fucking ridiculous, the next Bruiser Brody? More like the next Van Hammer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DCMaximo 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 But at least Van Hammer used a Slingshot Suplex as his finisher and didn't botch it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest DeathBecomesYou Report post Posted September 14, 2004 Speaking of which, what is Tomko's finisher anyway? Is he still using the big boot where he falls on his ass? I've been changing the channel out of habit whenever he's in the ring of late. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Salacious Crumb Report post Posted September 14, 2004 Tomko is the next Nathan Jones or Giant Gonzalez if he's anything. This is almost as bad as the Bradshaw = Stan Hansen crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nl5xsk1 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 If you take away Brody's charisma ... and ability to get the fans to cheer and/or boo him (depending on which territory he was in) ... and original look ... and the fact that he was actually a pretty frightening guy, they might be right. Nah, even without all that, Brody > Tomko. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Astro Report post Posted September 14, 2004 Brody was capable of *** - **** matches, let's not forget he was damn good in his day Granted these were matches with Race, Bockwinkel and Flair but Brody knew what the fuck he was doing /Brody mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SinToxic 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 I thought the Predator was the newly failed Bruiser wannabe. Very stupid, stealing ideas from a b-indie Japanese fed there Mr. McMahon. What's next a HHHustle-1 PPV? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Czech Republic 0 Report post Posted September 14, 2004 Except that 10 years from now when someone says "Tyson Tomko" it'll usually be followed up with..."sounds familar, what did he do?" How sad is it that I, and possibly more people here, will remember Tomko for what he did in a thread we made rather than what he actually ended up doing? I swear, I have clearer memories of Tomko being the businessman that accompanies Fertig on Raw than the match he had last night.

Australian Pride 0 Report post Posted September 15, 2004 Let's look on the bright side - Brody spent a lot of time in Japan so maybe Tomko will too. 360 days per year would be nice, and then he can come back the other 5 (or 6 in leap years) to visit his family over christmas. I'm not sure the Japanese deserve that much Tomko though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
