Five Years Ago This Month (Part 2)

Who were some of the beefcake wrestlers featured in this blog in May 2010? These guys, that's who. Several of them are still active in the pro wrestling scene (Dickenson, Richards, Curtis, Jindrak, Perkins, Black) while the others seem to have retired or moved on to other careers.

Johnny Curtis (aka WWE's Fandango)

Mark Jindrak (aka Marco Corleone in Mexico)

Tyler Black (aka WWE's Seth Rollins)

Davey Richards

Chris Dickenson 

Brakus

Jon Cutler

TJ Perkins

Truitt Fields

Big Bad Brakus

Remember Brakus (real name Achim Albrecht from Germany)? Yeah, neither do I. He was signed by the WWF in 1996, but only made a few appearances (maybe because he couldn't really wrestle?). Here are screencaps from a lame handicap match on YouTube. The guy was huge, but I guess size can only get you so far in the business.

Brakus' manager encourages him to strip.
