As a successful wrestling executive and a podcaster with a large following, Prichard has established a formidable financial presence in the entertainment industry. His salary from WWE and podcasting contributes significantly to his overall net worth.
The segment was patterned largely after Piper's Pit: Brother Love would berate face wrestlers (especially Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior) and openly support such heels as "The Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiase and Bobby Heenan. It was explained that DiBiase was Brother Love's main "benefactor".
More than once, a wrestling feud was set up because of what occurred on "The Brother Love Show" (including Hulk Hogan's feuds against Big Boss Man (1988–1989) and Earthquake (1990), and the Jake Roberts-Rick Martel feud from late 1990 to early 1991).
The Brother Love Show was also the setting for the unveiling of Ted DiBiase's Million Dollar Championship and Rick Martel's "Arrogance" cologne. Brother Love made his pay-per-view debut at SummerSlam 1988 when he interviewed face wrestler "Hacksaw" Jim Duggan.
He later featured prominently in WrestleMania V in 1989, when he took over Rowdy Roddy Piper's Piper's Pit and was promptly "de-skirted" by Piper. A year later, Sgt. Slaughter bestowed a medal upon Brother Love during SummerSlam for being the "greatest American".
Career, Business and Investments
Prichard's career in professional wrestling began in the 1980s when he worked as a referee and producer.

After a hiatus from WWE, Prichard returned and has since been instrumental in shaping modern wrestling narratives.

He has diversified his income through business ventures related to wrestling merchandise and event promotions, further solidifying his status as a savvy businessman.
On November 19, 1990, Brother Love began managing The Undertaker (who at the time was known as "Kane the Undertaker", the add-on of "Kane" inspired by Prichard).
The November 19 appearance was The Undertaker's debut into the company and later used as an episode of WWF Superstars of Wrestling, which did not air on television until after his on-screen debut at the 1990 Survivor Series.
On November 20, The Undertaker had another off-air match that would later air as part of an episode of WWF Wrestling Challenge, also aired on television after his appearance live at the Survivor Series.
At the Survivor Series, The Undertaker performed in a Survivor Series-style elimination tag match on a team led by Ted DiBiase against a team led by Dusty Rhodes. It was at this event that DiBiase would reveal his mystery partner as The Undertaker. This was the first time Brother Love appeared on television as The Undertaker's manager.
Brother Love continued to manage The Undertaker until January 28, 1991 (shown on TV in February) when he sold his contract to Paul Bearer.
