Brutus the Barber Beefcake

If, like me, your favourite wrestler is Ed Leslie then you are in for the ultimate cut. For me this represents some of the greatest years of Ed's career, fighting alongside future legends such as Virgil and against such vilians as the dastardly Greg "the hammer" Valentine. From start to finish a masterclass in wrestling with many matches including Ed's famous sleeper move as well punches and even headlocks. They don't make them like this anymore!

Growing up back in the 80's and watching the "WWF" one of my favorite wrestlers was "Brutus the Barber Beefcake". I had his "LJN" action figure and watched him from his time with Greg the Hammer. And this "Coliseum Video" classic from 1988 now on "Peacock" brings back memories as his early years as a bad guy with Johnny V. Are highlighted and matches with his years with Greg as tag champs are shown including the split from Valentine. As Brutus was most popular when he became a favorite as his trade was cutting hair after putting his foes asleep with his trademark sleeper hold! Classic matches and victories over Dino Bravo, Danny Davis, Honky Tonk Man and others are shown plus seeing Beefcake cutting the hair of Jimmy Hart and Johhny V. Was a memorable fun treat even a little hair styling spray paint wise! Hosted by Mean Gene this is a must watch for any fan of the Barber and the classic "WWF" days!
