Background: Ed was always a hanger-on. He met a beach bum named Terry who had ideas about starting a band. They had some fun, but Terry went on to bigger and better things. He tried to make a go of it as a musician, but he was stuck as an opening act.
Then he joined the Dream Team and got himself some powers. He even ran into Terry again and that got him thinking. He liked being cheered, plus Greg Valentine was kind a jerk. When Dino Bravo showed up, Brutus found himself kicked out of the group.
Bumming around, he saw Roddy Pipper fight Adrian Adonis. Overhearing that the loser of the fight would get their head shaved, Brutus took the initiative and found some scissors. The crowd loved him and soon "the Barber" was shooting up the charts, even joining the Superstars for a time. As the Barber, Brutus hit the streets, leaving his trademarked buzzcuts across the city.
He looked to a major rising star, even taking down Mr. Perfect when a freak parasailing accident put him out of action, seemingly forever. Retiring from the Superstars, Brutus opened up a barber shop, but business was mediocre at best. The shop would later be wrecked during the Rockers breakdown. His time in the 90's in chronicled elsewhere.
