10 Greatest WWE Super Heavyweight Wrestlers
7. Big Boss Man
Big Boss Man has the misfortune of his highest profile moments being among his worst. The Kennel from Hell match? Legendarily bad. Getting hanged by Undertaker at WrestleMania? Questionable to say the least. Stealing Big Show’s dad’s coffin? Quite funny, actually, but not how the man should be remembered.
Over two WWE runs, Boss Man was, with the exception of the above, one of the most consistent performers and a hard worker during a time many were resting on their laurels. He started off as a hulking bruiser, but slimmed down later in his run to show off his ever-surprising athleticism.
Boss Man was a fully rounded big guy - he took great bumps, he could work a quality match with anyone, and he had a gimmick that always leant itself well to storylines. His second WWE run saw him work primarily in the hardcore division, and he brought seriousness and brutality to a belt that was often treated as an afterthought.
Ray Traylor passed away long before his time in 2004, and remains an underrated, often integral part of WWE and wrestling at large.
