Are there any current wrestlers who could have a chance in a bb'ing contest?
Bobby Lashley has to be the biggest guy on the WWE roster, prob needs to bring legs up a bit.
-
That's not even a very flattering pic of him, there are times when he looks absolutely freaky!
veins and striations everywhere.
-
Dave Batista
-
I think that John Cena would make a great bodybuilder but I think that he needs to add more muscle mass/muscle weight if he wants to to go against the big boys like about 30-40 pounds.
-
Lee Priest looks good in that pic. Nice chest.
-
in the last pic that guy on the far right looks like Darrem Charles

That's Arnold.

Cena has black mans calves, its fucking silly to look at a man with chicken legs like that. Great upperbody but legs are awful. Lashleys debut in WWE was something to remember, ive never seen a wrestler look like that. His physique - esp his xmas tree was straight off a high quality bbing stage. His legs are that size for a reason, so he can be athletic in-ring. If he wanted to, im sure he could bring them up without a problem
-
what about big pappa pump and chris masters

The worst upper to lower-body ratio I have ever seen on a pro wrestler belongs to Goldberg. The guy had a massive upperbody, average thighs, and the skinniest calf muscles I have ever seen on a wrestler. The guy looked like he had 14" calves.
-
who needs calves?!?!?!?!?! all us muscleheads want COWS!!!!!!! Who's is with me!!! Holla!!!!!!!!!!!

goldbergs strength was amongst the best wrestlings ever seen. The way he jackhammers the big show with ease and presses steiner (with assistance) 7 times overhead is scary

Yeah I know I couldn't find a better one of him.

Masters has a good physique, but Steiner looks awful these days. His chest is completely screwed up.
Randy Orton has a good shape, but needs WAY more mass.
-
..........

His arms and shoulders are ridiculous, but I saw some recent pics of his chest, and there was a large gap growing between his pecs. Kinda like they'd torn or something.
-
there ya go.

Superstar Billy Gram!
-
One more!

The pics of Graham were great man. Thats when wrestling was great. Before all the crap they McMahon started in 1984.
-
Bobby Lashley? I don't follow wrestling, but he looks like one bad bitch.
-
What a peak on SSBG! Wow!
Current - Scott Steiner (whose idol was Graham.) Pre-pec tear he looked much better.
-
Big Poppa Pump also has major Nerve damage...throughout his body. He wrestled for 2 years in WCW with a limp right foot that he had to tape so tight to wrestle. He actually tore the pec in the ring...him or someone in tha ring messed up a belly to belly suplex.
-
SS was the man! he was pressing 650lbs raw in the late 60's.
I had dinner with him not long ago........he's doing very well.

The fuk r u talking about? Big Poppa pump is a straight up Johnny Bravo man. He's got the WORST upper/lower body ratio EVER!

Vince McMahon SR thought that was how SS should look being he's from the west coast, and then coming to work in a New England wresling terority. It really was a shock to people in the audience to see a freak from the west coast with all tie die.

Mr USA TONY ATLAS

He never went to japan that was all a gimmick this should help.
A former football player and bodybuilder, Coleman selected his ring name as a tribute to the famous evangelist Billy Graham, at one of whose revival meetings he had converted to Christianity. The name was used to make him a kayfabe brother to the earlier Graham Brothers (Eddie Graham, Dr. Jerry Graham and Luke Graham. Coleman added "Superstar" to his ring name after hearing the song Jesus Christ Superstar. Sometimes he was simply referred to as Superstar Graham to avoid confusion with the evangelist.
In 1972, Superstar Graham's popularity rose significantly during his feud with Baron Von Raschke and Horst Hoffman in the American Wrestling Association.
[edit] World Wide Wrestling Federation: The First Stint (1975-1978)
Graham defeated Bruno Sammartino for the WWF Championship on April 30, 1977. When other heels had won the WWWF/WWF title, they had almost immediately lost it, serving as a conduit between face reigns. Graham, a "rulebreaker," held the title for almost a year, including winning several rematches against Sammartino. To this day, Graham has had the longest world title reign of any heel in WWE history.
Graham suggested to Vincent J. McMahon that Ivan Koloff should turn on him, thus starting a feud that would make Graham a babyface. McMahon refused because of a handshake deal to make Bob Backlund the new babyface champ. He did not want to go back on his word. It was also unheard of for a character like Graham to be a face, because McMahon and many old promoters saw Graham as a heel. Fans were turning Graham babyface on their own, but the era of "cool heels" would not come until the 1990s with the likes of The Rock and the nWo.
[edit] National Wrestling Alliance: The First Stint (1977-1982)
One of Graham's most famous matches took place in 1977 against then NWA World Heavyweight Champion Harley Race in a WWF Championship & NWA World Heavyweight Championship unification match which ended in a bloody one hour time-limit draw. He eventually lost the title to Bob Backlund on February 20, 1978. Graham competed in the 1980 world's strongest man competition and finished seventh despite being injured in one of the events.
[edit] World Wrestling Federation: The Second Stint (1982-1983)
Graham returned to the World Wrestling Federation in 1982. Gone were the long bleached-blonde locks and colorful clothes. They were now replaced with a bald head, mustache, all-black outfit, and a newfound knowledge of the martial arts. Graham was billed as a "leaner, meaner Superstar."
Again, Graham would unsuccessfully challenge Backlund, but in one memorable incident he would destroy Backlund's championship belt ringside while Backlund wrestled.
[edit] National Wrestling Alliance: The Second Stint (1983-1986)
After a run in the Florida territory as a member of Kevin Sullivan's Army of Darkness, Graham spent some time in the NWA's Jim Crockett Promotions working for Paul Jones in his feud against Jimmy Valiant. It was during this time that the Superstar returned to the tie-dyed look, growing a full goatee and dyeing the moustache blonde. Hulk Hogan would copy elements of this look, this time into his heel "Hollywood Hogan" character in the 1990s. Graham also spent some time in the AWA promotion, working with Wahoo McDaniel and Ken Patera.
[edit] World Wrestling Federation: The Third Stint (1986-1988)
Graham returned to the WWF one more time in 1986 as a face. After a few appearances, it was diagnosed that Graham required a hip replacement, the result of steroids deteriorating his body. The footage of Graham's hip replacement surgery was shown on WWF TV as a means to promote Graham's comeback. He returned in mid-1987 and feuded with Butch Reed for a few months, but the strain on his hip as well as his ankles also deteriorating proved to be too much. One Man Gang retired him from active competition permanently with a big splash maneuver on the concrete floor during a match against Reed. Don Muraco came to Graham's aide, and the Superstar became Muraco's manager. Graham was scheduled to wrestle in the main event in the first-ever Survivor Series, but Muraco took his place once Graham retired.
Graham would have further medical complications in subsequent years, having to have his ankle fused in 1990, and a second hip replacement (on the same leg) in 1991.
In 1992 at the height of Vince McMahon's steroid allegations Graham went on the Phil Donahue show (Donahue) and revealed to the world that he was an avid user of steroids, and went on a tirade against Vince McMahon about it. Graham also testified against McMahon when the steroid allegations became a federal trial after Vince was accused of distributing steroids to his wrestlers. This caused a rift between McMahon and Graham that would last for over ten years before Graham was inducted into the WWE Hall Of Fame.

very good and accurate,i know that the wrestling spin was to say he went to orient as he said and trained in martial arts ,backlund "beat"him with his chicken wing manevour ;)graham was a true character.he was good when he used the bear hug to win,putski,patera,graham,koloff,were all good character's,some played their own heritage to the hilt,like putski,sammartino.people today would be bored with that era ,no firework's,no mike work,too many ethnic stereotype's and good vs bad,today heel's and baby faced are cheered depending which city is favored with some wrestler's.

Brock Lesnar still has potential and lazy BABA Johnson never had a chance.
