WWE Hall of Famer Gerald Brisco went under the knife on Monday for a total knee replacement surgery on his left knee. The 74-year-old provided an update on Tuesday morning, stating that the surgery was a success and that he’ll hopefully be able to return home later in the day. As a wrestler Brisco is best known for working nearly two decades alongside his brother Jack as The Brisco Brothers. He won numerous championships in promotions like Championship Wrestling from Florida, Georgia Championship Wrestling and Mid-Atlantic Championship Wrestling before retiring from in-ring competition in 1985 and began working backstage for the World Wrestling Federation. Both he and Jack were inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2008.
