in todays wrestling, with everyone getting in shape.
do you think we'll ever get a behemoth type wrestler again?
i'm not talking about a 260lb overweight guy ...
but like an Abdullah the Butcher or Earthquake type guy.

Yeah, I would think so. If Nia Jax is doing it in the Raw women's division, a bloke can do it, surely.

I think we'll see someone that big eventually down the line. If anything they'll be a nostalgic novelty act. If they bring the right big man in who does a good job in the role they could open the door for others to get hired.

"I'M NOT FINISHED WITH YOU!!!!!" He's in shape, but I would certainly consider him a behemoth.
That dude from Heavy Machinery is short but he looks like a cannon ball. If they tweaked him parts of his character he could be a believable monster.
Also, at one point wasn't WWE kind of talking to the Mountain from Game of Thrones?

Braun's hi weight in WWE was 415, until he trimmed down to a slim 385. I'd say he counts.
Otis is NXT is about 5'8 330.

Seems like the Authors of Pain are as close as we can get to something like this again. The person would have to really be able to go. Kongo Kong is  ing embarrassing to watch with his saggy beef kittens. Brodus Clay sucks too. It's 2017. A 5'9 160 pound Irish guy is the baddest man on the planet. We stopped believing fat truckers were viable bad guys right around the time we stopped saying our prayers and eating our vitamins. Even watching back Yokozuna's sh*t with Owen is hard nowadays. |

For real! I very rarely catch TNA unless I'm channel surfing on the weekend and a replay happens to be on. That's when I got a glimpse of this poor-man's Kamala and he's disgusting to look at. It's like someone's grampa decided to be a wrestler and someone encouraged him to wear trunks for some god-awful reason. He jars me out of my suspension of disbelief, he doesn't look threatening, but he does look embarrassing. It's like Gypsy Joe. |

Actually a 6'4 240 pound Croatian American is the baddest man on the planet. |

I wiki'd him and the dude is 2 years younger than me! And he's held a butt load of indy championsips apparently. But man, he's definitely not blessed with genetics. Those pouty nipples are something else. His wrestling attire should have incorporated a long singlet like Papa Shango. Even Viscera tried to cover up his man breasts. |

Her body structure is close to Umaga. Next to Alexa Bliss, Bayley, Becky, Sasha, Carmella etc were the average sized woman (equivalent to someone like Randy Savage among his male peers), and Charlotte Flair and Dana Brooke were the taller/bigger women (equivalent to Hulk Hogan or Brutus Beefcake among their male peers), then the comparison of Nia to Bundy stands to reason. |
