2. Vader

At one stage of their careers, Vader and Bam Bam Bigelow created quite the meaty team while harbouring a sizeable off-screen beef.

A devastating unit in NJPW, they couldn't always get along behind the scenes, and who exactly could have broken up the fight if they'd gone at it for real? If there was anybody worse to meet down the proverbial dark alley than Bigelow, it'd be Vader. It's a crying shame that, by 1996, Vince McMahon didn't really agree.

It wasn't that he didn't get how to book the former WCW Champion - the Royal Rumble 1996 debut and monster follow-up angle on Raw the next night proved that - but he clearly took issue with Vader's size and/or how that was perceived by his fanbase.

Sent to a weight-loss centre with Yokozuna in 1997, he was then scripted to call himself "a big fat piece of sh*t" a year later as his run fizzled for good. One of the mightiest and meatiest in wrestling history let alone WWE, he was a lot of things. But never ever that.
