Brutus Beefcake is the ring name of Edward Harrison Leslie, a retired American professional wrestler born in 1957, best known for his work in the World Wrestling Federation as Brutus the Barber Beefcake. He began his career in 1977 at the side of Terry Bollea, who became Hulk Hogan, and the two were billed as brothers. After a short spell in Germany and Austria he rejoined the WWF in late 1984 as a vain male stripper character, and in 1985 he and Greg Valentine, as the Dream Team, beat the U.S. Express for the WWF World Tag Team Championship, losing it to the British Bulldogs at WrestleMania 2. He turned fan favourite at WrestleMania III after helping Roddy Piper against Adrian Adonis, took the Barber nickname by shaving Adonis, and later worked for World Championship Wrestling under many names, including a main event against Hogan at Starrcade 1994. He held nine titles in all and entered the WWE Hall of Fame in 2019.
