If you've ever listened to the NFL's "Mic'd Up" segments, you know that some football player's personalities don't really shine during press conferences and post-game interviews. They're coached to speak a certain way and hold back any comments that might sound off-colour or too controversial.

Essentially, they're being stripped of their personalities so that they all sound like good little football robots.

But on the field, the most competitive players do plenty of trash talking. And no one trash talks as emphatically - or as charismatically - as The Claymaker. Give this guy a mic and let him go off on somebody...and everybody wins.

He's also a vocal leader on the field, rallying his defensive allies and calling out audibles to make sure everyone's on the same page. That focus and attention to detail would make him an asset in a WWE ring.

For someone his size he's also unnaturally agile, able to turn his momentum on a dime, which would certainly be a useful quality for executing some sweet reversals on his opponents.

Plus, how does a guy with a beautiful mane like that and muscles like those not find his way into a wrestling ring at some point in his career?
