Bob Brown
Biography
Robert Harold Brown was a Canadian professional wrestler born in Manitoba. Before pursuing wrestling, he worked as a police officer and also played hockey. He began his wrestling career in the late 1950s, gaining prominence mainly in NWA Central States, where he was a 19-time heavyweight champion and 12-time tag team champion.
Throughout his career, Brown wrestled in various promotions across Canada, the United States, and Puerto Rico, facing well-known opponents and forming successful tag teams such as "The Hunters" in Puerto Rico. Besides wrestling, he also worked as a booker and commentator.
Brown came from a wrestling family, with his brother working as a promoter and his son as a referee. In 1996, he suffered a heart attack that forced him to retire, and he passed away the following year at age 58 while working as a security guard.
