Anybody could win it. I mean Bart Gunn won the first one, and that was with Dr. Death, Bradshaw, Marc Mero, Hardcore Holly & Steve Blackman in it, and they were all favorites. There could be someone on the roster that is a true to life badass that we don't even know about, because they didn't do it as a background. Actually Bart was the favorite going in. He had experience in those kind of toughman competitions. Really the "office" thought Dr. Death was going to win and had planned on using this to launch him to the top of the card. They were shocked as **** when Bart knocked him out, injured him and went all the way as no one expected it. That is why they did absolutely nothing to capitalize on it afterward and did nothing with Bart. He was part of a jobber tag team at the time and if they had any, I repeat any plans for him whatsoever they would have jumped on his win. He then got the match with Butterbean where he was disposed of in like 30 seconds and wasn't seen again.

In terms of takedown ability, Ziggler would do very well, if he could get his opponent down the match would probably be over Del Rio has some experience as well, in actual MMA matches I've always been curious how someone like Big Show would do in a fight like that It was a boxing contest. Takedowns are irrelevant. Except takedowns were relevant in the Brawl For All.

Realistically, how is a takedown going to work in boxing gloves? It was pretty stupid. They'd just takedown and let them stand back up. It was just to get more points on your side.

The Miz would dominate a Brawl for All Tournament

Honestly, while a bad idea from an injury perspective, there could actually be some really good matches with the amount of young talent that has boxing, amateur wrestling, martial arts, etc. backgrounds.

Barret wouldnt stand a chance against half of the roster. Idc what his background is. Remember Mero, everyone thought he would be great. Not so much. Cena, Henry, Titus, Roman Reigns, Swagger.. These guys would take him in a fight imo.

There is a reason Brock did so well in UFC. I realize hating on Cena is the trendy thing to do around here but i wouldnt let his gimmick fool you. He is still a 240lb+ athlete that trains harder in one wo than Barret does in an entire week. He is bigger, stronger, and has more stamina and endurance. My money is on Cena. Same goes for Roman.

Built like a teenager? I quit reading right there. You just ruined anything else you said. Barrett would wreck 90% of the roster, if not more.

Uhh... Wade Barrett anyone? I said anyone besides Lesnar and barrett Why did you leave Del Rio out if you excluded Lesnar and Barrett? That doesn't make sense to me. Del Rio is s PRIDE veteran with a 9-5 MMA record with 7 wins by submission and 2 by knockout.

These guys would take him in a fight imo. " While living in Liverpool in his early twenties, Bennett became a champion bare-knuckle boxer, going on to fight in various locations throughout Europe. He competed in a match dubbed by the bare knuckle underworld as 'The Battle of Buda', in which he defeated a reputable opponent for a big cash prize. Afterwards, as he walked through an alleyway in search of a taxi to the airport, Bennett was stabbed with an eight-inch blade by someone who attempted to steal the cash. He has refused to elaborate on the incident for legal reasons, but the assailant incurred serious injuries, and Bennett escaped with the cash despite significant blood loss. The attack left him with a 12-inch scar that stretches from his upper back to halfway down his right triceps, and the punches he took during his bare-knuckle career left him with a disfigured nose, but he has expressed no regret over that period of his life." 99.9% of the WWE Roster (the world population in general for that matter) would bitch out in that situation. It doesn't matter how Barrett is built, he would thrash Cena.

It's not that I think a "bum in an alley" can't compare to Cena. I think Cena can't compare to an 8 inch knife.

Del Rio is s PRIDE veteran with a 9-5 MMA record with 7 wins by submission and 2 by knockout. Del Rio is a PRIDE veteran... That lost all of the two fights he had in PRIDE. You know, the two fights he had against guys that were actually somebody.

While getting stabbed may not make someone a badass, getting stabbed, then beating the crap of the person who stabbed you (presumably while they are still holding a knife) while you have a 12 inch stab wound that is losing a "significant" amount of blood and still causing your "assailant [to incur] serious injuries" is pretty badass.
