Five Years Ago This Month : Beefcakes (Part 2)

Here's another batch of images of the Beefcakes of Wrestling who were featured in this blog back in October 2010. Many of these guys are still wrestling these days, while a few of them -- Gary Steele, Jackson Andrews, Ricky Williams -- seem to have "retired".

Huggin' And Squeezin'

Jim from Chicago emailed me this awesome set of photos he took in Louisville, Kentucky three years ago. It features Daniel Rodimer and Atlas DaBone (who became Ricky Ortiz and then Ricky Williams) in a titanic bearhug sequence. Jim says the match was to determine who could bearhug his opponent to defeat. Oh to have been in the audience that night! Thanks for the photos, Jim. Keep 'em coming!

Daniel Rodimer

Atlas Da Bone

Ricky Williams

Contributor David emailed these pics he took of little-known wrestler Ricky Williams who is based in Orlando, Florida. I tried doing a Google search on this guy and came up with nothing. Anyone know anything about this tattooed muscleman?
