The Outlaw

In the tradition of such wrestling cowboy greats like Ron Bass, Blackjack Mulligan, Bob Orton, Jr., Barry Wyndham, to name a few, here's Outlaw Mitch Mitchell. This is 24 year old Mitchell's first appearance on Beefcakes of Wrestling, but it certainly won't be his last.  Mitchell made his pro debut in 2012 and worked steadily for several independent companies from 2013 to 2017. Originally from Florida, Mitchell has wrestled for the following promotions: Florida Underground Wrestling, Full Impact Pro, National Wrestling Alliance, Big Time Wrestling, and several others. Watch him in a match against Chance Champion (uploaded to YouTube on Jan. 21, 2018) here.

BONUS! The Outlaw doesn't just wrestle for independent promotions. He's also appeared in about 5 videos for Thunder's Arena. In this set of pics, his opponent is a guy named NJustice. Read more about this video here.

Transformers : Dash Wilder

Last week, I did a story on independent wrestler Saul Adams wherein I compared a photo of what he looked like when he was first featured here (i.e., lean, muscular) with photos of what he looks like now (i.e., thick, beefy, bear-like). This got me to thinking about a few other wrestlers who, over the years, have transformed their bodies. Some have gotten leaner, more ripped or defined, while others have bulked up. Thus, the idea of a monthly feature called "Transformers" was born. In it, I'll be posting pics showing the transformation of a wrestler's physique over the years. One such wrestler who's made such a transformation is WWE's Dash Wilder. If you're not familiar with him, this is what he looks like.

With his Revival/The Mechanics tag team partner Scott Dawson.

When he first joined WWE's NXT franchise, Wilder was paired with Scott Dawson in a tag team called The Mechanics. Their beefy builds complemented their blue collar, "real man" personas. Before he was renamed, Wilder was known to independent wrestling fans as Steven Walters. In case you forgot what Wilder/Walters looked like prior to his stint with WWE, here's a refresher.  All these images were posted in this blog a few years ago. What do you think of Wilder's transformation?

Around The World

Today, I bring you three new faces from around the world. First up, from Budapest, Hungary, is Nitro. Nitro has wrestled all over Europe and has appeared in events for Rockstar Wrestling, Westside Extreme Wrestling, Pro Wrestling Holland, Kombat Pro Wrestling, and several other companies. Watch him go up against French beefcake Tristan Archer here.

With English wrestler Johnny Moss.

Next up, from Jalandhar, India is Kamesh Koshale. Koshale appears on the roster of Indian wrestling promotion Continental Wrestling Entertainment (CWE). He wrestles in singles and tag team matches (where he is half of The Handsome Falcons). Watch Kamesh in action here and here.

And last but not least, from Ireland, here's Jordan Devlin. The 27 year old from Bray currently works for various independent wrestling companies in Europe. Watch him in a match against Aussie Open and Scott Davis here.
