A week has passed, and it’s time to reveal the winner of and answers to the Lugz sponsored With Leather MMA Tattoo Trivia Challenge. This week’s winner is Michael Hickey, who was the first to send in a perfect 25. It turns out most of you have no idea who Eben “Big O” Oroz is, despite him looking like MMA’s closest living relative to Team Rocket. Not surprisingly, everybody got Brock Lesnar, even though I didn’t include his hyper-masculine chest penis.

If you sent in a guess (or are just curious as to who in the world would get these tattoos on their bodies), click through the slideshow and take a look at who we chose to represent the cool, weird and sometimes terrifying world of athlete tattoos. If you won this contest (or the previous contests), your prize is getting shipped out today.

This is the part where I walk by holding a sign that reads “Please Buy Lugz© Brand Boots.” Enjoy the answers.

Who is that on Alan Belcher’s shoulder? The Blob? Francis, from “Pee-wee’s Big Adventure?” Wait, I think it’s supposed to be Johnny Cash. Man, I should’ve just put up a big picture of Alan Belcher’s arm and given a t-shirt to whoever guessed “Johnny Cash.”

But we’re going to do better than that. How about a t-shirt? With Leather has teamed up with the fine folks at Lugz to bring you part three of our Stupid, Awesome & Cool Tattoo Trivia Challenge. If you can click through the images and identify the MMA fighters based on their tattoos (and trust me, if you’ve ever seen these tattoos before, you know who they’re on), writer down your answers and send them along to me at infernaldinosaur@gmail.com. This one is a little bit harder, so we’re giving you a full week: get your answers to me by next Wednesday, and maybe you’ll be the winner.

And don’t forget: if you’re wearing Lugz shoes when you go to the tattoo parlor, you will at least leave without anybody drawing skulls on your feet.

The second installment of the With Leather Adjectives and Adjectives Athlete Tattoo Contest comes to a close with two major realizations: One, that pro wrestlers have the worst tattoos ever, and two, that I probably could’ve made this a little easier. Apparently, Harley Race is too esoteric for most people. Wrestler Tattoos 2 will just be 30 pictures of Undertaker’s SARA neck tattoo, and everyone will win a shirt!

But we did manage to have a winner (guessing 27 correct out of 30), so it’s time for the big reveal. If you see a guy and you don’t recognize the name, spend a few minutes on YouTube or Wikipedia learning about them, about who they are, and watching some of their matches. Unless of course you didn’t know who Shannon Moore was. If that’s you, please, don’t spend any of your life’s time researching Shannon Moore.

Click through and see who you missed. If you’re that guy who won, brag by doing crotch chops and saying The Rock’s catchphrases in the comments section.

Uh, okay, well, that’s great and all, but not exactly what we meant when we said “stupid wrestler tattoo challenge.” But that’s pretty well done, you got Hogan’s wrinkles perfect. Oh, I’m sorry, that’s where your back tried to escape itself.

Today’s With Leather contest featuring Fabulous Prizes is the newest Mega Gallery to combine badly tattooed athletes with crudely photoshopped question marks: the pro wrestling exclusive sequel to last week’s Athlete Tattoo Trivia Challenge. Here’s the rub. You click through the gallery and try to identify the ink-having fake fighters you see. Challenge yourself and try not to use Google. Or do, I’ll never know. I picked wrestlers from all levels, from around the world, past, present and (in some cases, debatably) future. Anyway, write down your answers in a handy list and clandestinely e-mail them to me at infernaldinosaur@gmail.com. Yes, I am an adult with a Legend of Zelda G-mail address. Did you think I was gonna be cool BEFORE you clicked on my pro wrestling Internet blog?

On Friday at noon Eastern Time, I will tally the scores and the Top 3 scores will get a very special prize – a limited edition first print With Leather t-shirt courtesy of our very own Burnsy. And you’ll enjoy that shirt, because I got a job writing here and they won’t even give ME one. Try not to spoil the answers in the comments section if you can help it. I know if you’re a wrestling fan you might not know what “manners” and “functional society” are, but give it your best go.

Color me pleased, friends, because I received a considerable amount of emails regarding Wednesday’s first-ever With Leather Trivia Challenge and none of them were mean. Well, except one but that was my mom and she’s just going to have to accept that I’M NEVER GOING TO BE LIKE MY BROTHER! Anywho, a few of you scored 100% and a few of you were stumped. Nevertheless, we’re quite happy with the effort and the winners have been notified and asked for their t-shirt size so they can show off their new fashion sensibility, namely a shirt that may or may not have a likeness of Douche Dog on it. (The actual t-shirt design will be revealed next week with the second trivia installment.)

In the meantime, the answers are included after the jump and I didn’t list the winners’ names because of Federal Protection Programs and such, but those of you who won (and I was a little more generous than 3 shirts) can go ahead and brag in the comments. Thanks for participating and stay tuned for an even more awesome challenge next week.

Welcome ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls of all ages – who are all required by law to remain at least 100 yards away from Punte – and all of the rest of you WithLeatherites to a new feature I’ve been wanting to try here – The WithLeather Trivia Challenge. I figured I could combine your love of useless sports knowledge, my love of trying new stuff and giving free stuff away, and the entire world’s love of our Mega Galleries and turn it into one giant orgy of experimentation.

Today’s inaugural Trivia Challenge – and possibly the only, if you all violently abhor or ignore this idea – involves our love of athlete tattoos, specifically the ridiculous and absurd. But I’ve also thrown in some cool tattoos as well, just not my tramp stamp of Ke$ha kissing Lady Gaga. Some things are meant to be kept private. So you must be wondering, “Burnsy, you look like you take great care of your pecs and abs, so how does this thing work?” And the answer to that is 8,000 sit-ups each morning and you will scroll through the following photos, record your answers and then email them to me at BurnsyWL@gmail.com.

On Friday at noon Eastern Time, I will tally the scores and the Top 3 scores will get a very special prize – a limited edition first print With Leather t-shirt that you can wear to tell everyone that you don’t do sh*t at work or school all day. I’ve tried to balance the pics between easy and hard, and anyone with Google should be able to get most of them without too much effort. After all, making you work hard makes me work hard, and none of us want that. And feel free to spoil the answers in the comments, because this is America and that’s what we do – ruin things.
