Most big guys you see usually suck at the actual "wrestling".. That's why I'm so into Taker. For his size, man he can do it all. Of course, Brock Lesnar also comes to mind as he's just a freak of nature. And then there's Kane. Ace mentioned him in another thread and I thoguht I'd bring him in this one as well. He's had to deal with a lot of shit storylines but the man is an accomplished wrestler.. He always can usually keep up with the competition unless its a piece of shit guy, he's not going to carry people. Kane needs more respect. | |

Rep Power: 9 ![]() ![]() | Brock then.......... I'm kinda lost. They're not bad. Taker esp. with his time in the game adapted to a style that was not conventionally big-man. But simply no, big men wreslte like big-men. They'd have to be exceptional not too. |

Rep Power: 97 ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Oh I think there are quite a few "big" men that could work very fine matches. Kane - perfectly acceptable power based performer. Don't forget the guy kept people interested for years without being able to cut promos or show any in ring charisma aside from tossing his hair. He deserved any success he had. Brock - if he counts as a generic big guy then he's probably the best ever. Undertaker - I always sorry for the guy. He can genuinely work awesome matches against much smaller opponents, as he has done with the likes of Michaes & Angle (granted a broom could have a decent match with those two) but I think he's also missed out on better feuds because he's had to haul around the sorry asses of the likes of Yoko, Mark Henry, Heidenreich, Fake Taker, Sid, Nash for many years Vader - was an awesome big guy performer. Kind of like a bigger Joe in some ways since everything he did was extraordinarily believable and, a bit like with Steiner, there was a genuine feeling that he would kick your ass if you looked at him in a certain way Bam Bam Bigelow - Another pretty versatile and agile guy for one so large. | |

Rep Power: 3 ![]() | Bret said that Bam Bam was the best big man in the business I believe...if that true, coming from him is a big compliment. I used to love Vader back in the days, but he now should be considered the worst lol. Taker imo is the greatest. He has had longivity, World Titles and alot of classic matches. His matches with Bret, Angle, Kane, Mankind wil be remembered forever. |

Rep Power: 6 ![]() | Yeah, Vader was awesome back in the day. It was especially impressive seeing him do the Vader-sault(a 400+ pound man doing a moonsault? You have to be impressed). Undertaker of coarse, he proved at No Way Out that he can still have great matches. |

Another, and I wouldn't class him as a good worker, but very entertaining in a kind of he's going to kill you kind of way is Mike Awesome. | |

If you look at both peoples matches, they can entertain the crowd, take bumps fairly well when they did take them and also could work when needed. Just look at Sid's matches against people like the Undertaker, Hogan and Michaels. | |

Rep Power: 9 ![]() ![]() | For contributions to wrestling you have to lump in a few of the big tag-teams too. The dudleys are a given but thru the eighties many big guys were thrown together so as to give them a chance of not blowing up too soon in a match. |
