“God damnn ittt pal, look at all that beefff” – it’s probably what Vince McMahon says when he sees John Cena, Brock Lesnar, Hulk Hogan and others in all their muscular glory, in his sweetest dreams. After all, one could say that WWE’s very legacy has been built on these big beefy boys doing all their beef slapping stuff in the ring. It’s in the company’s DNA. The very first thing that comes to people’s minds when they heard the word WWE is chiselled eight packs and biceps the size of bowling balls.

And yes, it’s most certainly true that in recent years, the profile of an average WWE superstar has changed considerably from this, with smaller, athletic, flippy guys finally being given the chance to showcase their talent and grab the, ahem, Brass Ring. Still though, Vince loves himself a six foot five inch, 260 pound beast and will more often than not push them to the moon.

As obsessed as Vince is with this class of performers, WWE is certainly not the only place where you can find these big powerhouses treating their opponents like toothpicks. All major promotions have at least a few that stand out literally from their peers, and WWE would certainly love to get their dollar tattooed hands on them. These, are ten such wrestlers who may work outside WWE for now, but their physiques are perfect for what Vince wants in potential stars.

10. Wardlow

Wardlow, A.K.A the Bane to MJF’s Poison Ivy, A.K.A taller and scarier Marty Scurll, A.K.A the man with one of the most amusing names in pro wrestling today, is big. In fact he is very big. Big enough to look down the likes of Cody as if he was a high school junior and big enough for Vince McMahon to start licking his lips whenever he sees him, which admittedly is unlikely given Vince probably doesn’t watch any other wrestling show out of the need to pretend none of them exist.

Standing at 6'2" and weighing almost 250 pounds, the man is a powerhouse who can go toe to toe with just about anyone in the business without having to crane his neck to look them in the eye.

And while we are yet to see the man in action in an AEW ring, judging by how he almost cleaved Cody’s flesh off his back during the lashing segment, it’s safe to say his strength matches his size.

After battling Galactus and pinning Hulk Hogan in the main event of Wrestlemania, I've taken a break from living in fantasy worlds, to focus on writing about them. I'm a comic book geek, a wrestling mark, a break dancer, and a scientist. One of those things may not be true.
