Totally agree... Wrestling stats are all seriously overblown it's not even funny... UW was a legit 6' footer, no way more than that, and around 240lbs for him seems correct, no way 275... Triple H is around 6'1.5, 6'2 morning probably, no more than that... Peak Hulk Hogan was 6'5-6'6...

Thank you...I'm glad someone agreed with me. It's laughable how much wrestlers beef up their bodyweights for their characters. Randy Savage for example, was billed between 235-240 and I doubt he was heavier than 205-210. For one, he had really skinny legs. And when I met him as a kid, my father was easily 2-3 inches taller than he was and he's a legit 6'2".

And I don't care what anyone says...no way Austin weighed 265 for his appearance at wrestlemania 30. If you believe that, I have some beachfront property to sell you on the North Pole.

Yeah, pro wrestlers really aren't big at all, they fake all their stats.  ::)

Spot the wrestlers from the normal lifters.

He owned a number of business and a training center.  But he wrestled at a time when there was little money available for wrestlers.....sort of like the bodybuilding industry

Warrior was a top earner in the late 80's and early 90's.  There were those that didn't earn a lot, but he was not one of them.

Yeah, it's inconceivable that the man was 275.  ::)



Arsenio is around six feet and Warrior towers over him in this video. And he's massive, to boot.

Pause at around 1:20 and check out the size difference between the two men.

Some of you haven't a clue. As I say, I am six and I weigh around 275. And I'm drug-free.

Here's another ...

Huge Wrestler was huge.

Quibbling over 20lbs on a dude that was between 6'3-6'5 = why!?

FYI looks like he could be 260-275 to me. Dude is monsterous.

Just to put things in perspective Jim claimed 285 when he first burst on the scene with the bulkier type look and that was also when he was clearly at his biggest.

It's not inconceivable that Ultimate Warrior weighed 275 but at his prime ripped condition you really think he was that much heavier than a prime Arnold?

If Vince McMahon, notorious for over promoting size,  sends you out there with a billed height of 6 foot 2 you damn sure aint 6'4 or 6'5.

Yeah pro-wrestling is an odd, laughable sub-culture.

If only it was as mainstream and as popular as bodybuilding...  ::)

Arnold was never a man with dense and thick mass and his legs were thin. Yes, Warrior was around 275.

Bodyweight can be a difficult thing to estimate by eye especially for bodybuilders. Most top bodybuilders are short - 5'9 or under. They also carry very low bodyfat levels on stage. Top bodybuilders very often have "slight" frames also - this may seem counterintuitive but they very often have a small skeletal structure, small joints, waists etc. Most bodybuilders started of as ectomorphic skinny kids, with naturally small frames. For example a guy like Flex Wheeler at his peak was only around 230 I believe, yet if somebody said he was 260 I would have no trouble believing them.

In contrast most pro-wrestlers are the complete opposite. They naturally have heavy frames, thick joints, wide shoulders, big hands, wrists etc. They are usually over 6'0 tall plus carry more bodyfat then a competitive bodybuilder, even a shredded guy like Warrior.

For example, this picture. Superstar Billy Graham was billed as 275 throughout his career. This was taken during the 70's when Arnold was at his largest. I'm an Arnold fan but he looks like a pissant next to Billy Graham here. Warrior was not quite as tall as Billy Graham but was of a similar size.
