If you've ever wondered why I haven't uploaded any new Davey Richards pics here, it's because I haven't seen him post anything wrestling-related on his social media accounts. In the early years of this blog, Richards was one of my favorites and I featured him here quite often. He was pretty busy in the independent scene (especially with Ring Of Honor), not just as a Singles competitor, but as half of a tag team with Eddie Edwards. When he and Edwards signed up with TNA Impact, he didn't seem to be as visible online as he used to. Eventually, his posts on social media started dwindling and there was barely anything about him I could post as a story here. After looking into why this happened, I learned that Richards has become a full-time student in pursuit of a medical degree. So from full-time wrestler/part-time student, he's flipped the script and became a full-time student/part-time wrestler. "School needs to come first," he says in
this article (dated September 6, 2017). He became a paramedic 4 years ago and is continuing his education to become a critical care medic for intensive care unit cases. Who knows? Someday, we may be referring to him as
Doctor Davey Richards. To honor this tough competitor who has the most intense facial expressions, let's look back at some photos of his remarkable career in the squared circle.

What a man he is
ReplyDeleteAMEN Eli !!! He is DELICIOUS beyond DELICIOUS !!
ReplyDeleteMD? Do I want to be taken care of by this MD? It would be possible?😊
ReplyDeleteI want to hear him telling me to cough.
ReplyDeleteRichards has been in the #1 spot of my top 10 favorites for quite a while. He has it all: hot body, the ability to sell anything, and a mastery of pro wrestling skills. And he sweats like almost no one else. Fortunately there's quite a video record of his ring work that we can turn to when we miss seeing him in action. Dr. Richards will almost certainly become a reality if he approaches reaching it with the dedication that he has given his wrestling career. One of the best.
