Frederick Seawright, better known by his ring name Brickhouse Brown, was a renowned American professional wrestler who made a lasting impact in the wrestling world during the 1980s and 1990s.
Born with a passion for wrestling, Brown's journey began in 1982 with his first match against Bobby Jaggers, under the Southwest Championship Wrestling promotion, led by Joe Blanchard in San Antonio, Texas. Despite having no prior training, Brown was later trained by the legendary Terry Funk.
Throughout his illustrious career, Brown competed in various territories, including the National Wrestling Alliance, where he won the NWA Southeastern Tag Team Championship with Norvell Austin in September 1985. He went on to compete in the Southeast region, specifically in Memphis, where he won his first singles title, the AWA Southern Heavyweight Championship, defeating Jerry Lawler in July 1987.
In May 1988, Brown won the CWA Heavyweight Championship, holding the title for nearly two months before losing it to Phil Hickerson. He became involved in a racially-charged angle with Robert Fuller and the Stud Stable, which garnered significant attention.
After SuperClash III, the AWA pulled out, and the CWA-WCCW cross-promotion continued, as Jerry Jarrett bought Fritz Von Erich's majority stake in WCCW. In February 1989, Brown won the WCCW Texas Heavyweight Championship, defeating Iceman King Parsons.
Throughout his career, Brown had the opportunity to compete in various promotions, including the AWA, WCCW, and the World Wrestling Federation. He won his second USWA World Tag Team Championship with The Gambler in April 1995, and his third and final title with Reggie B. Fine in July 1996.
Brown's final match was in January 1997, bringing an end to his remarkable wrestling career.
