Hulk's Bodyguard - Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake?

Hulk Hogan used to give people a knock-out leg drop, but yesterday, his signature move for photogs and fans was -- the cold shoulder! Isn't the point of promoting a show to be nice to people ... so they'll watch it?


All wasn't lost for dissed Hulk fans though. Brutus the Barber Beefcake (NOT dead, btw) was accompanying Hogan, and he took some time to chat with the little people about Britney. He must be the Hulk's understudy when he's cranky!

31. He'll never change. I've never liked him. 20 some odd years ago my nephew (he was about 6 at the time) who was a HUGE hulk fan got the same cold shoulder at one the events. He was so broken hearted and you know to this day I haven't forgotten about what a jerk hulk is. Loser! It's one thing to give the cold shoulder to an adult but to some little kid? No wonder his kids are losers too! Chip off the old block!

33. Well it is better than Brutus the Barber Beefcake's last job as a MBTA subway employee in Boston. He was suspended after a anthrax scare turned up to be just his coke stash.

34. I for one will never watch anything with any member of the Hogan/Bollea clan. Terry is the worst, has he no shame whatsoever? Apparently not. I could give a rats ass that he signed 3 autographs at a Raiders game or called somebodys nephew. Big deal. Has he ever put his son before a camera and said "yes, he is responsible for John Graziano's "living death" and I as his father am responsible for allowing my son to drive". Hell no. He needs to crawl back under the rock he was spawned from. After seeing his mother on "Hogan KNows Best" I can see why his father died and why he is the way he is. What a low life.

35. Good to see Brutus get some love on TMZ. I met him at a show this summer, and he was really nice, it was an honor to meet him.

36. I worked on a shoot with him, He is a jerk, I wasn't a stage hand, I was one of he producers, I feel very sorry for the crew of both his reality show and of American Gladiators. I guess like father, like son, like daughter, must be the steroids, lets face no one gets that big by drinking protein drinks. Hey Hulk, thanks to sites like TMZ what goes around comes around, treat people like crap and they are going to write about it!!!!

38. Assorted Media turned Hulk's life into a bigger sideshow than it ever needed to be. It doesn't take a brain surgeon to ascertain that the man is probably hurting, for a lot of reasons. Even celebs need their space from time to time when things are really rough. People claim to love their celebs, but turn on them when they don't get what they want RIGHT NOW from them. Pfffft.

39. He may have been having a bad day but in front of fans, ya gotta fake it. I live in Toronto and once DROVe to North Catrolina for a wcw even to get his pic, which I got. Another time I drove to Boston, hoping he'd sign it, but he ignored me twice. It really sucked cause it was like your hero ignoring you but he's just a man. And how can you blame HIM for what Nick did? And regards Nick, people make \mistakes..sometimes BIG ones...but we ALL F* up so forgiveness we must give if forgiveness we want.

40. My husband and son met Hulk Hogan and Rob Van Dam on their way home from a Monday night raw show last month in Connecticut. It was 11:30pm and they were stopped at a chinese restaurant on their way to the airport. Hogan couldn't have been nicer. He posed for pics with them and asked if they wanted anything signed - but noone had a pen!! Rob Van Dam was also very nice. I wouldn't want to be bothered if I was them and I am not famous. I understand that it comes with the territory but could you imagine not being able to go anywhere without having to talk to 100 people? All I know is that they were in our little town and were friendlier than the people that live here! They made my son's year!!
