Brutus “The Barber” Beefcake was a man of many gimmicks. He may have found most success as The Barber, but the reality is that there were a lot of tried and tested gimmicks of his, most of which didn’t work out.

Perhaps his biggest strength was the fact that he was a versatile performer. If he was a heel, people would boo his guts, and if he was a babyface, then people would be completely behind him.

Beefcake was charismatic in his own right and had a rather bizarre career. Here are a few things you don’t know about Brutus Beefcake.
