A farmer has swapped sheep shearing in Dorset for WWE wrestling in the US.
Tristan Angels grew up on his family's sheep farm in Kimmeridge, but a visit to a wrestling show at Bournemouth Pavilion when he was 18 years old changed his future path.
Inspired by the show, he sought out a wrestling school and began training, and now the 23-year-old performs weekly in the ring on WWE's developmental show NXT on Netflix.
Tristan said getting involved in the Mister England beauty pageant and representing England at Mister International helped jump start his wrestling career.

Tristan is from a long line of sheep farmers and said farming was more like a lifestyle than a job.
He said: "As a kid, you start opening gates, feeding lambs at lambing time and you get a bit more involved until eventually you're driving tractors, shearing sheep and all the rest of it."
But for now, he is living his best life in the ring, performing with WWE in Florida.
Brimming with confidence, he said: "I look like I am from a fairy tale, I am the most handsome man in England."

He added: "I'm from humble origins on a sheep farm, I am Prince Charming from Shrek just come to life.
"I just win, whether it's a beauty pageant, in the ring or on the farm."
