Flex Those Pecs

Longtime contributor and good friend of this blog David curated this collection of photos he's taken in various NXT events over the years. The theme of this collection is "Beefcakes Who Don't Miss Chest Day at The Gym." Thanks for these pics, David!

Flashback Friday: Thomas Kingdon

If the name Thomas Kingdon doesn't ring a bell, it's probably because the former competitive bodybuilder had a very brief and unmemorable stint with WWE's NXT. The 6'3", 300 lb. native of Michigan USA who also went b the name Big T Kingdon, had his first NXT match on September 26, 2015 and he was released several months later on July 28, 2016. In that time, he wrestled in only five matches (including a Battle Royale and a six-man tag team match) and won only one match with his tag team partner King Konstantine (aka Radomir Petkovic).  No word what Kingdon is up to these days (his Twitter account has been inactive since 2017). Here are some pics from his posts here on Beefcakes of Wrestling.

Flashback Friday: Radomir Petkovic

Remember former NXT superstar Radomir Petkovic? Who could forget him? The 308 lb. former amateur wrestler from Belgrade, Serbia made his debut as King Konstantine in WWE's developmental territory on December 2015 but was released a scant nine months later. Here are some pics from past posts as well as a couple of more recent ones. Although he's no longer actively wrestling, should I continue to feature him here, say in a future Muscle Monday post? What do you think?

This and the next two pics were taken by longtime contributor David.

Remember These Guys?

Remember NXT's Hugo Knox and Radomir Petkovic? I don't know why they were released from WWE's developmental franchise, but I can't help but still feel a little sad about it. Here are some of the photos longtime contributor and good friend of this blog David took of them back when they showed a lot of promise. I wonder what they've been up to since then.
