For anybody who saw Big Van Vader in WCW, youll remember him as a brutal, hulking monster of a man who legitimately put the willies up many a young wrestling fan. Simply put, the Harley Race-managed Vader was an unstoppable machine and one of the most intimidating grapplers on the planet, much like how he was in Japan before then. Then came his 1996 WWF run. Having dodged a name change to The Mastodon, Vader would eventually find himself challenging for Shawn Michaels WWF Championship at SummerSlam 96. The initial plan called for Vader to win the gold and then the pair were to feud over the belt before Shawn regained the strap as the hometown hero at the San Antonio, Texas-held Royal Rumble. Michaels famously had a tantrum about working with Vader due to his stiff style, refused to drop the belt to him, and then was seen verbally berating him throughout their SummerSlam match (which Shawn won). Michaels would lose the gold to Sycho Sid at Survivor Series and then win it back at the Rumble. As for Leon White, The Man They Call Vader soon became The Man They Call Jobber as he plummeted down the card before leaving the company in 1998.
