10 Strongest WWE Wrestlers EVER

Doug Furnas didn't win WWE World Titles like Brock Lesnar, John Cena or even Big E, but he is legitimately one of the strongest wrestlers to grace the roster. At one stage, Furnace logged a 985lbs squat. Read that number again. He used various pieces of safety equipment like straps to help out, but that's almost 1,000lbs.

Wow.

Doug's other workout numbers were nothing to be sniffed at either. He had a 600lbs bench press and a monumental 821lbs deadlift record. That's more than E's incredible stat, which really says it all. Furnas might have been stuffed in a tag team with Phil LaFon on the then-WWF roster between 1996-1997, but he was some specimen.

The man's tendons must've been forged from steel to manage some of those lifts. He could stand proudly as one of the best powerhouses in the industry despite never reaching top titles on-screen. In fact, Furnas and LaFon failed in the federation. Off camera, Doug was a monster in the gym.
