11 Great Moments From WCW Clash Of The Champions

11. The World's Strongest Man

Clash of the Champions XVI was another pretty terrible show, headlined by the final of the WCW Tag Team Championship tournament between The Enforcers (Arn Anderson and Larry Zbyszko) took on Rick Steiner and Bill Kazmaier in the final, in a match that went all of three-and-a-half minutes.

The reason it went so short was because Kazmaier wasn't actually a wrestler. Younger fans may not be aware, but Big Bill was actually a past winner of the World's Strongest Man competition and WCW was trying to capitalise on his newfound celebrity status. He definitely wasn't a wrester though, so Arn and Larry made short work of the team to pick up the straps.

The Enforcers also put the boots to Kazmaier earlier in the show, as the American strongman was performing feats of strength in the ring. Bill bent a bar around his neck, which is pretty impressive albeit fairly pointless on a wrestling show.
