The televised audience as well as the announcer were also furious over his win, as well, with the former also proceeding to throw food into the ring while booing.

== Trivia ==
* It's likely that Brawn is partly based off of the real life wrestler Fritz Von Erich, famous for playing an evil German wrestler (alongside his "brother" Waldo Von Erich) in the 1950s and 60s, being billed as "hailing from Berlin, Germany." Aside from his design baring some superficial similarities, the connection is further supported by the fact that Brawn is associated with a wrestling promotion called "World Class Wrestling", as Fritz would go on to buy into (and later fully acquire) an existing Dallas-based promotion by the late 1960s, renaming it World Class Championship Wrestling.
