15 Wrestlers’ Daughters Following In Their Parents’ Footsteps
7. Alana Leslie (Brutus The Barber Beefcake)
Family connections definitely can help get you ahead in the wrestling world, but when your godfather is Hulk Hogan, you have to consider that a huge leg up. Alana Leslie, the daughter of Brutus The Barber Beefcake, is just starting out as a professional wrestler, signing with Jersey Championship Wrestling last December to begin her training for in-ring competition. Her ring name? Baby Beefcake. To say that Leslie is just getting started in the profession is an understatement. Brutus very recently tweeted a happy 18th birthday wish to Alana, which would make her four years younger than Paige (more on her in a moment). Still, with Hulk Hogan currently in WWEs good graces, Leslie could find herself in a position to become a Diva at some point soon if she sticks with wrestling.
