Does anyone know whatever happened to him.    He always was in shape come contest time.   He also seemed like a nice guy.

Last I heard he was in some pro wrestling indy fed under the Brakus or something like that. They had an article about him in FLEX about 5 years ago. I have no idea if he's still doing that or not.

He was going to be Brakkus in the WWF- they spent several weeks building him up before his debut, but I guess he was HORRIBLE in-ring, and was pulled pretty quick.  He has a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo in Bret Hart: Wrestling with Shadows where he's at dinner with the Harts.

His physique may not look as competitive now, but in the pre-1993 Dorain era, he was a freakin' monster.  Nobody had seen anything like him before, and I have to think he could have done some damage had he stuck around.

I remember his WWE television debut. The match was beyond horrible.

Man of Steel,

Are you serious or joking? I was always a big fan and loved the fact he was gonna be a HUGE WWE star til I seen him in the ring. Oh my God I think my grandma could of done a better show!!! Anyways like it was said above pre Dorian era he was considered a FREAK!!!! I met him at the Arnold back in like 95-96 and man his whole head was purple, looked like it was about to explode. But a very nice guy to talk to.

 Wolfy!!!!
