Lance Storm was very underutilized - especially in the WWF. I was honestly surprised and disappointed they couldn't make better use of him.

The Von Erich boys were very competitive with each other. Some folks speculate that they even tried to outdo each others' deaths with the suicides.

The original Doink was Matt Borne; actually a very good worker who finally struck gold with a gimmick that may have been a death sentence for any other talent, but he enjoyed some great success with it. When they first introduced the character, I honestly thought it would end up being another Red Rooster or Repo Man.

yeah,,he was bulked thick from his bbing days as dingo,them wwf got lean/still sized as well but freaky veins/hardness
Yes... There is a video on the tube of him with Sting (who was big also) as Freedom Fighters doing some sort of a promo, Hellwig is crazy huge, thick and wide, much more than his ripped/harder UW days... Considering that he was around 6' foot, he would dwarf many bb pros, he had the potential to go bb route easily...

In the pic that was previously shown you can clearly see his traps through his bomber jacket, built like a house in those days but wasn't ever really a fan of his build.

This is Ultimate Warrior the day before he died.  Can't believe it's the same guy. Seems like yesterday he was a superstar.. sucks getting old.

[Andre was "billed" at 7'4" but he was probably close to a legit 7'0".  Here he is with 7'1" Wilt and some health-look tiny tit. If you consider that Arnold was probably 6'0"+ here then Hulk was well over 6 feet tall.  I have no problem believing Hogan's arms were 20+ inches in his prime.


IMO, that pic looks shopped to make Arnold appear tiny.  If true, Wilt would be 8' tall here. 

Watch "Conan the Destroyer", Arnold is not that small standing next to Wilt in that movie.

This is his best promo


Lol!!! That was great. You can tell there was some real animosity there. WWE would never let a wrestler go off like that these days. I think the closest guy was CM Punk, and we all saw where that got him.

I almost like the theatrics and the mics skills more then the actual wrestling these days.

The only problem is that the mic skills are horrible right now. The WWE is stale right now.

I'm not sure but here are some others.  He's substantially shorter than Wilt.

The first pic looks like it's taken from a slight overhead perspective which I think will exaggerate height differences.
