Gossip Central- Quasarman, a fellow who’s been known to embrace a vodka bottle or two, flowbied Wankus into virtual baldness Friday night on KSEX. And now fellow barber, wrestler Ed Leslie, is doing rehab. Is there a parallel here? Use your imagination. The internet has been abuzz with a story involving Leslie once know as Brutus The barber Beefcake.

Leslie, 46, of Winchester, Massachusetts voluntarily checked into a treatment program recently after cocaine he admitted was his created an anthrax scare at the MBTA’s Downtown Crossing subway station.

Leslie, who commanded some big bucks in his WWF heydays, had been working there part time as a fare collector – a job that pays $25,000 a year. In 1990, Leslie’s face was reconstructed with plates and bolts after a freak parasailing accident. And just last April, the IRS slammed him with a lien for $57,425, according to records.

The MBTA is not commenting on a report that Leslie was suspended without pay after cocaine turned up earlier this month on the counter of a Downtown Crossing fare booth, prompting an emergency hazmat response.

Although the subway station was evacuated, MBTA Deputy Police Chief Thomas McCarthy said the fare collector – later identified as Leslie – spared commuters further inconvenience by coming clean and dispelling terrorism fears.
