10 Best Wrestlers Who Came Out Of The WCW Power Plant

This is where the star power really ramps up a notch.

Some may laugh at the notion of The Giant/Big Show being on a 'Best Wrestlers' list, but hear us out. When he debuted in 1995 and won the World Title from Hulk Hogan, Show was raw as they come. Sure, though he was blatantly only there because of his freakish size and look, this Giant did have to put some time in at the Power Plant first.

That means he counts for this article. Considering the career he went on to have, Show also counts as one of the farm's best products. Imagining what The Giant would've been capable of have he been given a bit more seasoning before being rushed through for a program with Hogan is tantalising. He could perform dropkicks and moonsaults despite his massive body, and that made his potential endless.

As Big Show, he'd go on to become a WWE stalwart, multi-time World Champ and one of the best big men in history. Had he been more motivated and not been given so much so soon, there's no telling what kind of a worker Show could've been.
